from Frank Seravalli of TSN,

Bill Foley has it all planned out.

If the NHL were to award him a 31st franchise in Las Vegas, Foley said he has a “good idea” who his first GM will be. He has a logo ready to go. He knows what he will wear for the expansion announcement press conference.

“Black suit, white shirt, nice tie,” Foley said Friday on AM 1400 in Las Vegas.

Foley even has a pre-game ceremony in mind for opening night if his team is dubbed the Black Knights.

“You’re in the arena and the lights go out and Excalibur is in centre ice,” Foley was explaining on Sportsbook Radio. “Then, the opposing team’s mascot skates out and tries to pull it out and he can’t. Maybe we’ll have to impersonate the other team’s mascot. Then the Black Knight skates over and pulls it out. The ice starts cracking. The lights go on and the players come out. That would be an awesome thing to see.”

Except, right now those visions are still little more than dreams for Foley. It may seem like a formality, but almost everything he said in Friday’s engaging and revealing interview was couched in hypotheticals, while the NHL’s executive board deliberates on expansion.
