Last week it was Europe, now the NHL is considering Las Vegas.
The National Hockey League is seriously considering Las Vegas as the site of next year’s NHL awards show, Hockeycentral has learned.
The annual event is usually held in Toronto the week after the Stanley Cup Final but also took place in Vancouver as recently as 2006.
The idea of moving the NHL awards show to the Nevada hot-spot revolves around injecting some energy into an event that has been losing some luster.
It would also help the NHL in the quest for unanimous presence from all awards nominees and draw bigger celebrity presenters.
