So, Im not sure where I once heard this, but sometime during the early planning stages for the Ford Center (now Chesapeake), that the buildings intended use was to lure an NHL Expansion team, and that the team we were hoping to get, but lost out on eventually was won by Nashville and became the Predators. Can anyone here validate this as being fact or not? Did OKC express interest in gaining a hockey team and put forth a bid to the NHL for an expansion team during that specific round of expansions?
