The rumor that an expansion team soon moved to Las Vegas raged Tuesday night.

In fact, a reporter from The Province has even write that it was a "done deal" and that it was only a matter of time before everything is formalized.

Bill Daly, the right arm of the Commissioner of the National Hockey League, Gary Bettman, however, categorically denied this rumor on Wednesday morning.

"It's not in our plans, there is absolutely nothing new in that," he has admitted to TVA Sports.

And if it were an organization struggling with financial difficulties, as the Florida Panthers, who moved rather in the "Sin City"?

"We have no move in sight, whether in the case of the Panthers, or any other team besides," replied Daly.
