Golden Knights' Talks With Radio, TV Stations Picking Up Steam Ahead Of First Season

The Golden Knights’ pursuit of a TV and radio home is “picking up steam after the team spent last week talking to local radio stations” and RSNs, according to Steve Carp of the LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL. The Knights “spoke with Fox Sports West and Prime Ticket about finding a spot for the team” and have hired Evolution Media Capital to "identify possible networks to televise the games.” On the radio side, the team “has had discussions with Lotus Broadcasting, which has three sports talk stations as well as a Spanish language station,” in addition to having “talked to Beasley Broadcasting.” Meanwhile, Knights Owner Bill Foley said that he will “make the second of three payments” of his $500M expansion fee to the NHL tomorrow. The third and final payment is "due in April but Foley has moved it up to the first week of March” to allow GM George McPhee to attend the GMs meeting in Boca Raton, Fla. (LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 1/14).
