Mario spoke with Houston about relocation recently. I should find the article. That's another region I don't want to see the NHL in (and Aerosfan would talk about how I was being racist to southern americans by this declaration and la-de-da  ) |
Houston might not be my first choice but Houston should have a NHL franchise for sure. They have a history of hockey back in the 70's with the Houston Aeros in the WHA, they lasted all 7 season and almost made it into the NHL during the merger. Plus Houston also supports the AHL and before that the IHL (the old one). Look how successful Dallas is. It would be great in my opinion to see the NHL in Houston but again I would rather have teams more up north in the USA like Seattle, Portland, Hartford and so on.
