"The end of the third period of a 1978 hockey game between the WHA Indianapolis Racers and Cincinnati Stingers, from Indianapolis Racers."
If it wasn't for all the Canadian franchises in the National Hockey League, which is made up most of American franchises with a lot of Canadian players, there would probably an NHL club today either in Indianapolis or Cincinnati. Both markets are excellent hockey markets with long histories of supporting minor league hockey franchises. But with all the clubs in Canada in the NHL, there's only so cities available for the NHL in America, unless they wanted to be a super North American league, which you would need a lot of talent to have that.
