Southlakes Panthers NHL Relocation and Rebrand. The Best Expansion

For the National Hockey League, Atlanta's attendance obviously wasn't the best.  They are no more.
Florida is pretty typical Florida:  little to no butts in seats.  Butts next to no butts.

But the two put together?

20 games each city?  Would that work for a southern embrace of ice hockey?  Absence making the heart grow fonder?

Go big or go home.  Or go camp.
I would even go as far as a rebrand in the south.  I'd call them the Fishermen.

Sure, the league wants a Florida market like a California market.  But why not a whole southern market with occasional ice time in the stretches of Little Rock, New Orleans and the like?  Rivalry with Carolina and Nashville would be sweet.

Really, I'm for a lot of moves with the Coyotes and Panthers.  Austin Coyotes sound good?  Texas Coyotes?  Share ice-time with OKC and call them Midlakes Coyotes?  The Pack (pact)  Ooohh, Omaha!  So many options.
