Would be cool to have an NBA franchise in KC and an NHL team in STL.


That would be awesome. We need something for the Sprint Center. Too nice to not have a team in there.

Both KC and STL had NBA franchise at one time.
The STL Hawks beat Bill Russel's Celtics to win a NBA championship.

Yeah, I wish I would have had the chance to play hockey when I was a kid. Youth hockey is huge in Alaska. Looked fun.

It really is weird that there's two decent sized cities in Missouri with facilities and there's only 1 of 4 possible winter teams actually there.


It really is strange.

Blues should be marketed in KC with a pre season and regular season game or two played in KC and the same with a KC NBA team in regards to St Louis.

I honestly dont understand the STL/KC "thing". Both are great Missouri cities.

I don't get it either.

But yeah, there is no marketing of the Blues here in KC, and I don't know why. You'd think they would want to try and get folks in this area interested and expand their fan base.

It just struck me that this is the first of three games Missouri plays against Nashville this week.

Wtf is wrong with you? The only Chicago team you are allowed to root for you is the Bulls. MO has a team. The name if that team is the BLUES.

Perfect timing for a Grayback renaissance. I'm from Chicago and a Chicago fan across the board.

Except the Sox, frick the Sox.

The Blues will make a deep run this year.....and since we are talking about adding additional sports franchises..can STL get a MLS team already? I mean we just got the indoor Ambush team back but that doesn't count.

Need an investor to pony up some cash and a stadium plan. Hopefully it happens sooner rather than later.

I, too, am adopting the Blues as my NHL team. I have never really had an NHL team to cheer for so I can't seem to get heavily interested in the NHL until the playoffs. The past couple seasons I elected the Rangers as my team but I have no connection to them whatsoever and so I haven't ever been heavily invested in them.

ETA- and the lockout didn't help my interest much

Stanley Cup playoffs are back to normal this year. Start mid April instead of the last day of April. Last year was all fricky because of the lockout.

No, not really.

Can host the big matches in unconventional venues but there are not any venues in STL to permanently host an MLS team

The rumor running around STL is that Stan is going to build a dual purpose stadium to house football and soccer.

They have another "Arsenal" type friendly game coming up pretty quick. The 1st two drew over 100,000 so it looks like it will work.
