Seattle Metropolitans...?

Question

should they bring this team back to the NHL?

Answer 1

It would be a great move by the NHL to capitalize on a city that loves its sports teams, and just lost an NBA team.  I'm not sure of the status of Key Arena as the venue for a proposed NHL team, though.  The Pacific Northwest (besides Vancouver) is largely untapped for professional hockey... I think it would be a good fit, pending the facilities and the idea of expansion in general in a league that seems to be spread a bit thin with 30 teams.

Answer 2

I don't think they were ever NHL. Pacific Coast Hockey Association. But Seattle would be a possibility for any future expansion of the NHL.

Answer 3

They were never a part of the NHL BUT they were the first American team to hoist Lord Stanley.

.....I learned that in some video in the HHOF
