NHL Expansion to Las Vegas

[peytonsaturday]

So everyone seen the Warriors coming and the Bulls going down? Where have the lakers been? Celtics? Toronto is up rising, nhl is number 4 on the list of pros for a reason

Cause hockey's for a special breed of people that like to see football, lacrosse, and boxing on skates. I'd rather watch big hits and pucks to the face than watch a bunch of basketball players not play defense, shoot from 50', and dunk all the time. The hand eye coordination and self sacrifice is worth every second of watching hockey.

Amen!  Hockey players are some of the best true athletes in the world.  What do I mean by that?  They have to have at least a little bit of everything.  
In other sports if you're freakishly strong, but on the slow side (Larry Allen) you can still have a very long productive year.  If you can sprint 40 yards in under 4.4 seconds, but lack the endurance (Dieon) you can still be a HOFer.  If you are exceptionally skilled, but run the risk of missing games and having to be carried off the playing surface due to a cramp (LeBron) you can be considered the best at your craft.
In hockey you need it at least a blend of it all; speed, strength, endurance, the list goes on and on.
