Yeah. Looks like a place I need to see a game. I’ve been to a game in Phoenix back in 2001 and plenty of Stars games but Vegas is definitely a different cat.

One thing I’ve learned about hockey since becoming a Stars fan is your development chain has to be spot on. Just like the NFL and baseball - gotta draft & develop well. Vegas skewed how fans look at expansion teams. I love Jamie Oleksiak but he is what he is and that’s a 2nd pair defenseman. Brubauer is a 2nd tier goalie. That’s your team right now. A bunch of guys. How’s the AHL franchise doing?

They mismanagement the expansion draft badly. Hakstol was the wrong choice. Not a great start as a whole. I haven't followed the AHL team that closely. I just feel bad for the people who paid for tickets.
