S59 mPT #1 Expansion City

After being drafted by Toronto and then being traded before playing a game to Manhattan Rage which has a ton of great guys in it, the one thing that would drag me away is team closer to home, specifically the capital of Canada  Canada Being able to play for Ottawa would be a dream come true for Prime minister Trudeau

I probably wouldn't leave any team for another based on just branding, but if there would be on the first would be a Vancouver based team, but that's already in the SMJHL, next would be a non North American team since I think expanding worldwide would be cool

Being the good Pittsburgh boy that I am, if there were ever an SHL expansion team that donned the black and gold, I would absolutely have to play there. I might even consider paying whoever the GM there was to take me in the expansion draft. I'm very happy with Los Angeles and don't plan on leaving, but a Pittsburgh team here would definitely make me think.

For me it's easy, if there comes a branding out of Montreal, i would be really interested to join them. However, Doyle herself is not interested in any case to leave buffalo at this point.

Nothing could make me leave the Chicago Syndicate, but the city that I'd like to see is really anywhere in Europe. God forbid we break from North America. The horror!

Lind would uproot any current life in Carolina or Manhattan if a new team would be put in any Scandiavian country or have any branding connected to Sweden.

I think any city in Germany would be enough to rip me away from being on the Buffalo Stampede. I guess the most likely cities for an expansion team in Germany would be like Berlin or Cologne.

Thank you all for the amazing sigs & player cards

There are two possible expansion cities at this moment for which I might tell my management team "Please leave me unprotected."

1) For personal reasons, Amarillo, Texas. Lubbock is an acceptable alternative. It's my hometown and if anyone were ever to make a serious bid for it, I would help them.

2) For in-character reasons, London, UK. My current player hails from London, and my past player, Reginald MacIntyre, would have had plenty more time much closer to home with an SHL side in the UK.

Roboute Guilliman would likely leave any team if a team started in the Realm of Ultramar. Seeing as he rules this part of the galaxy its only fair that he would join and lead the team. He would be supporting it with his money as well as purging anyone and any team that opposes his leadership and rule.

There are two possible reasons why I'd be torn away from Atlanta with an expansion team. Personal reasons would want to see a team based out of Saskatchewan, or more specifically Saskatoon but that is unlikely to happen. For in character reasons I would play for a team based out of Italy, as that is where Pablo is from. Rome, Venice, or his hometown of Milan are just a few locations, and with the history that Italy has a really cool branding could be made for almost anywhere in the country.

I'm loving being on Atlanta but if we got a team in New Jersey or somewhere south like Mexico City or maybe Arizona, with good branding i could consider moving teams in the future.

Being from the Washington DC area, that is the branding that could rip me from my current team. Always something romantic about a player getting to go out and represent their hometown team!

I went through the whole thread to figure out the absolute answer to where the expansion should be. Note that when more than one place was mentioned or when there was a larger place then a precision towards a smaller one (like if someone said Sweden, particulartly Oslo) I just went with what stood out the most (often it was just the first thing that was mentioned).

A few interesting things :
20 people would like a city that has a team in the SMJHL to either get a second team or be promoted to the SHL (I don't know how that would work).
10 people would like a team in outer space.
24 people didn't mention a single place, but most of them did mention a particular branding.

Here's a graph depicting every place that gathered five answers or more.

If we could have a team in Hawaii that would be super cool. I would absolutely leave the dumbest trash of a city of Buffalo to go to Hawaii. I would call them the Hawaii Zombiewolfs. Named after me obviously
