According to the Sporting News, it's a possibility.

I can't wait for the rebirth of the Baltimore Blades. I wonder if they will sell $4.00 seats again.

LOL...XFL all over again!!!!

Seriously, though, IF this happens and their is a lockout, strike, or whatever in the NHL, I won't be shocked that players sign big deals over @ the WHA...could be the begining of the end of the NHL....just a thought.

They can't even fill up most NHL stadiums, how can they take care of 24 more. :rolleyes:

Oh wait, they have Businessman Al Howell and chiropractor Nick Vacarro running it. That changes everything... :hair:

I can't see the market for any more teams, let alone a league battle.
