DeltaSwede Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 I've seen an idea surrounding the history of nuclear testing in Nevada. I think it would make for a pretty cool concept to build a team around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just my opinion and I'm sure it's shared, but let's see if you can name ONE pro sports franchise that had a shot there. Oh yeah, the XFL folding and the CFL's attempt at US expansion (in outlaw country 2000 km from the Canadian border) don't count because, come on. A Canadian version of what Americans already love and a failed league were destined for collapse. The NHL will be a hot ticket for a couple years, maybe longer if they ice a decent team, but I fear for the longevity of hockey in Vegas. The Wranglers have been successful. None of the major leagues has tried, so it's hard to chalk those up as failures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With regards to your second comment, well, that was the point I was attempting to get across in my post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With regards to your second comment, well, that was the point I was attempting to get across in my post. Well, that's kinda unclear. My bad though. The Wranglers were very well supported, and there are only a handful of ECHL teams that don't bounce around. I don't think that this franchise will do as badly as everyone thinks, not the Wranglers provide any proof of that, but the argument that no one has succeeded there is fairly disingenuous. That may not be what you mean, but I've heard it a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's true. The Canuck's specifically are on the finicky fan support bubble again right now. The fanbase is much larger and the brand is much stronger compared to the last empty seats run, but it's still interesting to speculate about how long will people support the team, or at what level they'll support them.

I love watching games down there. They used to be the Jays farm team and it was always something I did when in Vegas. Now they are the Mets farm team, still good talent, just not as good.
