I didn't know that the new NBA commissioner had shot down the plans for a Seattle franchise. This makes it a whole new ball game with the NHL the only option. Seattle local officials and the arena deal need to change direction.

edit
NBA expansion should still happen for Seattle but it won't be for a few years.
