could make sense why they are moving Arizona to Central division despite being so close to Las Vegas who remains in Pacific --they foresaw something like this as a potential? Houston in the Central makes more sense.

No kidding. If Phoenix can be relocated then no fans of any franchise should feel safe

Thought I recognized the name, he's 3rd cousin to the Fertitta brothers, who transformed the UFC from a side show into a major sport.

good, make it happen. The Aeros had some really good attendance numbers in the AHL, I'm sure there's a market there.

This move makes a lot of sense. Would be best if it happened the same year as Seattle joining
