Looking at the NHL, "East" has 16 teams and "West" has 14, so two teams entering would even the divisions up. Another reason for bringing this up is if USB spends all the money and upgrades the arena like they talk, be ready for the same thing as MGM. ECHL hockey is not going to be enough to pay the bills and satisfy the "egos" of the landlords. Watch for action to upgrade the tenant with NBA, NHL or at least an upgrade to the AHL. I know you will say AHL can't happen but don't forget- Gardens got an AHL team the next year after the Cyclones left. Money can make anything possible.
