Possible location for the second Atlantic League team in Texas?
Too bad it couldn’t include a 8000 seat arena compatible for hockey. Houston lost the Aeros because the Rockets owner bullied them out of Toyota Center and the only way the AHL could come back is in an arena where rent would be reasonable and the team wouldn’t be treated like 2nd class citizens.
