Drouin Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Brooklyn Isles jerseys will look pretty nice. Similar to the Nets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie13 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 I miss the days when the Kings, and then the Canucks, used to hold their training camp in Victoria. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
In the Slot Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 Interesting city choices. A number of them look like they are testing expansion possibilities Barrie (north of Toronto, closer to Markham without being obvious) Quebec City Las Vegas Saskatchewan (is growing very rapidly) my bet is most of these cities are names being thrown around for expansion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
