Yesterday I found out Austin is being considered for NHL expansion. Today we begin to show the NHL and Friedkin Family what that would mean to Austinites! This is the greatest city, with the most unique culture, explosive growth and passionate fans. ADD YOUR VOICE so the NHL can drop the puck in Austin next! - Danon

I am John 'NHL' Austin, and I do declare an NHL team to be our divine right

There are SOOO many hockey lovers here. I've seen the Kings win the Stanley Cup live. This city is beyond ready for it's next pro team and has the most unique culture. Hockey belongs in Austin. We're ready!

The Austin Ice Bats were and remain quintessential ‘old-school’ Austin. Bring them back as an NHL team. This city would rally around them like never seen before.

Austin is the perfect market for an NHL expansion. We are one the largest cities that does not have big 4 sports team in Austin. Yes we have #5 MLS team but we could for sure support a big 4. Look at how successful the NBA is for fandom in OKC or San Antonio.

Let’s go, ATX! This town has so much soul and is craving a National Hockey League team to call their own.

1M people itching for major sports team, Houston wouldn’t care as much.

My name is Jimmy 'I Dislike John' Hippydip, and even though my strong inclination to disagree with John 'NHL' Austin really makes this hard, I too believe an NHL team to be our divine right. John is lame tho

Austin needs to understand that there’s nothing like an NHL game. Hockey is the greatest sport to watch live.

Great and growing hockey community. Need a big 4 sports team and tons of enthusiasm for such a team.

Austin is amazing and full of transplants from across the country who grew up on the NHL and would pack that arena out. Not to mention you’d be able to share the building with an NBA/WNBA team in no time. If you build it we will come.

Austin supports Austin FC well and needs another pro team to support. Austin has great traditions and vibes that will translate well to a hockey team.

We need need something beyond Austin FC and the Longhorns to root for. We are severely starved of our own teams at the national stage

This town loves offbeat sports, Austin FC has been a huge success. Lots of Midwest transplants who miss hockey, I was a former college hockey coach and would go to every game I could afford.
