NHL Exec Committee Expected To Make Choice On Expansion

NHL expansion reaches a "critical stage" today, when the league's nine-member Exec Committee is expected to meet in N.Y. and "make a decision on expansion for Las Vegas and Quebec City." NHL officials would not confirm the meeting, but sources said that "it’s on." The committee recommendations "will be put to a vote" by the BOG at its June 22 meeting in Las Vegas, with 24 of 30 votes needed for approval. Barring "something highly unusual, the board will take its cue" from the committee, which is chaired by Bruins Owner Jeremy Jacobs (LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL, 6/7).
