"Among the cities both men claim have expressed interest in franchises
are Quebec City (which lost an NHL team), Seattle and Portland, Ore.
(both of which want an NHL team), Las Vegas, Omaha, Neb.,
Indianapolis, Dallas and Atlantic City, N.J., which lost its East
Coast Hockey League team — the Boardwalk Bullies — to a group in
Stockton, Calif., that will relocate it next season.
The pair say they have or will have lease arrangements at Reunion
Arena in Dallas; the Rose Garden in Portland; Key Arena in Seattle;
the Orleans or MGM Grand in Las Vegas; Market Square Arena in
Indianapolis; and Pepsi Coliseum in Quebec City."

MGM Grand in Vegas?!?!?!?!
That rink is 180'x70' at most, plus their ice plant absolutely SUCKS. Plus they will not get any weekend dates, due to the MGM booking concerts and boxing events on weekends.
