That said, I doubt the business model in Vegas and the NHL would have anything to do with comps to high rollers already down in Vegas. My guess is it would be a destination play to existing hockey fans in other markets. For example:
Hey CSW from Calgary, come to the MGM Grand and stay 3 nights with you and a bunch of your buddies, and we'll throw in the tickets to the Flames game while you are down here for free.
So they lose me for 3 hrs while I watch the game, but I just planned a whole boys weekend around going to Vegas to see the Flames and they get me in their casino and restaurants for the other 69 hrs of my trip.

Can I be one of you buddies/boys
