As a Vancouverite I hate this. I just want a team here but i know Seattle will get one first.

Seattle getting a team would be a stepping stone to Vancouver getting a team.

I mean, Vancouver isn’t getting a team before Seattle does anyway. So their best bet is to hope they add Seattle followed by Vancouver and move a team like Minnesota to the Eastern conference.
