Sam Mellinger from the KC Star pulls back the curtain — there is no local ownership group for an NHL team to relocate to Kansas City, not even our beloved George Brett.

Lack of local investors would make it difficult for KC to get an NBA or NHL team
KC’s Stanley Cup ratings up 140% from last year. May have a little something to do with Chicago transplants, but I think there are just as many Red Wings fans here as Hawks fans.
Of course in Kansas City, the local elite would rather spend $400 million on aping the Sydney Opera House then spend $400 million on an NHL/NBA and save almost half.
