NHL has reportedly decided where the next NHL team will go

The Utah market has already proved that they have the ability to support a major sports team, having supported both the Utah Jazz and Real Salt Lake of the MLS. Utah also offers, and possibly most importantly, Ryan Smith, the owner of the Utah Jazz who has already expressed interest in purchasing an NHL team.
