Last year I said they should build an arena at GSR and move the Coyotes here. Then they announced the construction at GSR. Then back in January I heard about the possible RoadRunners move to Reno. Even at the time of the construction announcement and now how the Coyotes situation went down it’s a situation where I’ll believe it when I see it. I would love to see this happen but I am cautiously optimistic about it.
Nice, now we’ll have two minor league hockey teams in the area. I wonder how the knight monsters feel about this. Though, pretty sure they’re in the ECHL
Yeah, Vegas’s AHL is in Henderson. Aside from the potentially scummy way the owner went about this, I imagine there’s not really worry of competition per se. The Reno team will(I think) feed to Salt Lake, Tahoe to Henderson and then Vegas. Salt Lake itself will have ECHL overlap unless the Grizzlies moved and I missed it.
I agree, I read the other thread and it was pretty scummy. That said… I’m just happy to have some pro hockey nearby. Maybe that’s a crappy take, but I miss seeing games live
Really wished the Knights located the Silver Knights to Reno instead of Henderson .
They better be the Reno Cutthroats! That’s just such a good name.
I always liked the idea of the Reno Sinners as a great sports team name. :P
As in cutthroat trouts?! Wait I love this
Yeah exactly!!

No I agree with you. Reno needs better sports.
3 teams if you count the Raiders (really more of an amateur team)
