Not Even Close To Kansas City Pro Hockey



For a brief shining moment Kansas City was able to dream about this town permanently hosting a competitive sport that people of color have yet to dominate.

Sadly . . .

KANSAS CITY ISN'T ANY CLOSER TO GETTING AN NHL TEAM DESPITE THE RECENT MARKETING GIMMICK!!!

The crowds for the exhibition are nice but over the course of a long season the Kansas City market is completely unproven. Even worse, this town has mostly been used as a bargaining chip when it comes to NHL teams moving to much nicer places.

So, a few practice games might be newsworthy but it's not a substitute for the team we were pro team this town promised to play in the rapidly aging Sprint Center in much the same way that hockey isn't a real sport.
