Kansas City has a massive Irish history. They were the first immigrants to settle in the city and started their newspaper.

Thought somebody else said it was working which is why I didn't switch. Regardless, I have switched over to imgur now so it should be working. Please let me know if it's not working.

The Presser Continued…
The media immediately noted that some teams were playing out of NHA arenas. Price confirmed that they had signed leases with these arenas, but were told that the NHA would get first dibs on dates for these arenas. He said it would make scheduling tricky, but felt the league would be able to work around this logistical issues. Thomas stepped in and said that these locations would be temporary to get the league off the ground, and the hope was that they would be able to obtain their own locations, and in other cities, new locations once the league proved it was here to stay.
They announced the league was broken up into 2 conferences and 4 divisions and that 6 teams from each conference would make the playoffs.
The Northwest Division: Minnesota, North Dakota, Porland, Seattle, Vancouver, Winnipeg
The Southwest Division: Chicago, Colorado, Houston, Kansas City, Las Vegas, Oakland
The Northeast Division: Boston, Detroit, Montreal, New York, Quebec, Toronto
The Southeast Division: Alabama, Cleveland, Indianapolis, Orlando, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh
The media was thanked for covering the event and that more details would be revealed in the coming months leading up to the launch of the league.
The Fine Details…
Now that the league was announced, they still needed to figure out the fine, and some major details of the league. A press release was sent out to the media to finalize these details.
The league announced that all the games would be broadcast via youtube. The league and youtube signed a 1 year deal that Gerald Thomas felt would benefit the league greatly to start. Some questioned this method, but Commissioner Daniel Price confirmed that the league would be getting paid for this and it would carry the league for the inaugural season and potentially well into the future.
Finally, to ensure that the games would be family affordable, the league announced that the most expensive tickets would be $50 while the cheapest tickets would start at just $15. The hope was that this would allow people who can’t afford to attend other events the chance to check out the league, and would also help fill the stands, especially for some teams who were forced to play in rather large arenas.
The league was ready to launch, the schedule was released, all that was left was to play the games.

Much better with the images now, thanks for making the switch.
Does the NHL still exist in this universe?
24 teams off the bat seems like a lot. How are they finding enough players, and what caliber of talent is available to the league in these early stages? Any big signings?
