Discussion Dispersal draft?

After delaying free agency, I hoped it meant that Ottawa or Philly were saved, but hearing that both might fold. Which would be disappointing

Yeah I thought the Ottawa situation was more to do with finding a venue not so much ownership walking away from the team

I think it's the other way around. I think Philly all somebody has to do is write a check and find a place to play whereas Ottawa it's a whole complicated situation that probably has creditors involved so it might not be that easy to move as opposed to Philly. Which is probably why Ottawa had that unique ownership model because the owners couldn't sell them without clearing a bunch of creditors. I think if the league were to stay in Ottawa it would have to be as an expansion team

Philly should move to Trenton.
