Groundbreaking Ceremony In Seattle Marks The Beginning Of Key Arena Rebuild
Summary
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman announced the decision by the League’s Board of Governors, which voted unanimously in favor of Seattle’s expansion application. “Today is an exciting and historic day for our League as we expand to one of North America’s most innovative, beautiful and fastest-growing cities,” said NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. “We are delighted to add David Bonderman, Tod Leiweke and the entire NHL Seattle group to the National Hockey League family. Even though the focus of management is squarely on getting ready for hockey, the mere glimpse of the existing Key Arena raises the questions about the Seattle SuperSonics. “We’d also like to thank our ownership group for stepping in, being innovative with us, and looking ahead toward a bright future for hockey by bringing a world-class arena and training facility to the City of Seattle,” said Leiweke.
