Likely still 82. They can't really make the season longer, and it certainly won't get shorter.

The cool thing about a new team in a new city is the small possibility that I might not hate them, and could become a casual fan, seeing as I can't really bring myself to cheer for any other existing team except Boston in the playoffs.

Billionaire William Foley is betting hockey will sell in Sin City .
Foley is in advanced talks with the NHL about bringing the first major league sports franchise to Las Vegas, The Post has learned.
“He’s the real deal,” a source said. “He has deep pockets.
His goal is to bring an NHL team to Vegas starting with the 2017-18 season, which would mark the league’s 100th anniversary.
If he succeeds, Foley will likely bring in others to run the team. He did not return calls seeking comment.
Foley, 70, made his fortune forming home title insurer Fidelity National Financial and consolidating the industry. He also owns 14 West Coast wineries]

A rotation of Wayne Newton, Celine Dion and Carrot Top as anthem singers?
Maybe they'll get one of the illusionists to project it right to the fans minds!

Las Vegas Vengeance.
That's a name with game and a rollickin' moniker. All you need is a logo with restrained ultraviolence to pair it up with, like maybe a guy with a thousand laserbeams flying out of his smoking skull hacking down on Alex Burrows with a hockey stick made of pain.
