Putting professional sports teams in retirement communities is a bad idea. It's failed many times before. See: All south Florida sports teams, Phoenix Coyotes. Old people don't have the disposable income. Also they follow their old teams and rarely switch allegiances

Should the NHL go to Seattle with an estimated population of 652,405?

When looking at population to support a sports team you really have to look at the metro population and the population of other cities/towns in the State/area that will likely adopt the team as their home team.
