Seattle can hold its own

I think Seattle could support an NHL team in Seattle. Just three hours up north are the Vancouver Canucks who sell out every game, and have for a few years now. Many may argue with an NBA team, there wouldn't be enough support for an NHL team, but I disagree. Whoever said NBA fans were hockey fans, or vice versa? We have well over 3 million people in the Seattle metropolitan area. Add the fact that we have some of the nations biggest businesses and a lot of diehard hockey fans already here, it would only grow with a team here and would by the years. Portland natives and others from Oregon come up here for Seahawks and Mariners quite often when they play, so what is to say they wouldnt come and see the Seattle ?'s play?

Multi-Purpose Arena

I think a Multi-Purpose arena should be a serious consideration for the KeyArena renovation. The current renovation designs, a link posted on www.sonicscentral.com will should it is a very nice renovation. Hockey fans may be a little skeptical because it doesnt factor in accommodations for the large hockey rink. I'm interested in peoples responses here.
