NHL Hits Pause on Expansion—What’s Really Behind the Sudden Halt?
Bettman continues to play coy about expansion and whether he is leaning one way or the other. He was asked whether the Board of Governors was leaning one way or the other on which city and group they would want. Even if the NHL had a particular group, they’d say it out loud to the media.
However, when the NHL does want to expand, or is in the process of expanding, they need to make sure everything is in place. As Bettman always says, markets across North America show interest, but there is no formal expansion window to submit applications.
