I don't think Seattle would work.
If they can't support the NBA (much higher ratings compared to NHL) then there is no way an NHL team will last there.

If NFL, NBA, or MLB hasn't expanded to Vegas, what makes NHL think they will be the first.

Does anyone else on here have to sneak out of work for early games? I'm so glad my boss is a hockey fan and lets me leave early because I have friends who can't even leave 5 minutes early or listen to the game on their computers.

office manager loves hockey as much as me
she lets me off a bit earlier so I can watch
probably get off at 5, so miss first period, but better than staying and missing 80% of the game

PLUS, it'd be a natural born rivalry between seattle and vancouver.
as far as realignment of divisions, colorado would take phoenix's spot in PD and seattle would slide into the NWD and create a nice little pocket for those teams to travel in.

"They got a 3-0 lead and just flipped the puck out of their own end, playing a very simple game," said Kane. "It's something like Minnesota would do. Maybe, if we get the lead, that's something we can do. But in the end, we're not going to try and trap it up with all the speed we have, all the skill. That's really not our game."

I believe in general, the trapping defense is frowned against, especially for more "skilled players/team" that focus more on offense and scoring. So Kane just tried to say Canucks are simple, and they trap once they get the lead. And that Chicago is a more faster and skilled team that would not play the trap even if they were in the lead because they are better than that (canucks and the trap system).
So fuk Kane. lol
But doesn't matter how we interpret that message, we both want the Hawks to get their ass kicked tonight.
