Major Announcement: An Unexpected City could be next for NHL Expansion

NHL Insider Kevin Weekes has listed a surprising new city as a destination for the NHL's next expansion.

Kevin Weekes believes California could support a third NHL franchise. In the event that an NHL team is placed in San Diego, it could become the fourth team on the West Coast.

As owner of the Los Angeles Rams, Stan Kroenke recently joined Midway Rising as a lead investor. This project involves redeveloping the Sports Arena.

This mixed-use development features a 16,000-seat arena.

Now, the only thing that matters is if the timeline can be met by the time the NHL needs another expansion team. A great idea is the NHL's continued desire to grow the game on the West Coast since San Diego is a market that wasn't traditionally considered.
