What's the downside to this not working? People get up in arms about if it's a good market or not, but what is the harm in trying? I'm not trying to be obtuse, an evaluation of market viablility should happen before expansion, so I can understand some of the arguments being made against LV. But if it fails, how badly does this hurt the NHL or it's owners?
I'm guessing not at all, as long as they exit and don't prop it up the way they have done in Phoenix for example. In fact, if it fails, I'm guessing there is little downside to the NHL. So why not try. It's a very unique and interesting business model in LV, far from the traditional as folks have pointed out. I'm, not convinced it will work, but I will admit I'm interested by it and wouldn't mind seeing how it plays out.
