NHL in 2030 how things will look.






Fifteen years from now imagine how the NHL might appear.
Advertising on team uniforms. The NHL Summer League that overlaps the Stanley Cup finals in June. Perhaps a All Canadian Professional Women's league known as the WNHL with six teams across the country, Quebec City, Kingston, Hamilton, Markham, Regina, and Calgary.

However, the most incredible change that fans in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) have been waiting for is a second NHL franchise. Babcock will have reached the quarter finals as the Leafs Coach in 2021. Timing, density, infringement rights will have been addressed and like other major league sports Cities : Chicago, New York, Los Angeles, Toronto will have a second NHL club. Like Paul Brown was to the Cleveland Browns, this new Toronto NHL Club will be named after an iconic Toronto business man. They could be playing from a 45,000 seat arena in Downsview. Alternatively since the Argos are now defunct, this new Toronto NHL franchise adopts the double blue as their colours and is nicknamed the "Argonauts". The runner up name for the franchise is the Toronto "Finncups". The Maple Leaf Organization is not effected at all. Consultants had originally predicted a 10to 15 % roll back in lost revenue in years one and two but quickly bouncing back stronger. Fans in Hamilton are simply demoralized.  It could happen.
