New Hartford NHL Team Unlikely But Possible Under One Scenario, UConn Hockey Coach Says

Hartford is unlikely to get an expansion National Hockey League team, but if one of the New York teams ever moves it's possible it could come to Connecticut, UConn's hockey coach said.
Mike Cavanaugh, asked whether a successor to the old Hartford Whalers could ever come to the state's capital city, noted that there are four current NHL teams within about a two-hour drive of Hartford. (Those are the Boston Bruins, New York Rangers, New York Islanders, and New Jersey Devils.)
