Chris' twitter account @ChrisDaniels5 has some interesting stuff as well:

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
Levin: "I'm not certain there is a team" right now for Seattle. #NHL

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
Levin: "The league wants to stay there." (Phoenix) #NHL #Seattle

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
Don Levin on whether he still wants to own #Seattle NHL Franchise: "Certainly, yes, willing to do anything."

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
Levin confirmed "Bellevue is out" as far an an arena deal. Adds that he sent email to Chris Hansen saying "Congratulations". #NHL #Seattle

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
Levin reaffirmed that Key Arena would work as temporary NHL home. "Couple years yes, been done in worse places." Referenced Cow Palace.

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
Levin told me expansion would be best scenario, but right now "League is not talking about expansion" and he wants to work with Hansen. #NHL"

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
I can tell you the NHL is clearly high on Levin. #NHL Deputy Commish Bill Daly, in my correspondence, has spoke highly of Levin in past.

Chris Daniels@ChrisDaniels5
As far as Levin comparison on #NHL & SF Cow Palace...seats about 11k...hosted San Jose Sharks.. here is a current shot: http://ow.ly/hji5l
