Interesting to note that the Minnesota Wild and Ottawa Senators are already booked to stay at the MotorCity Casino Hotel while in town for road trips.
In addition, Detroit Red Wings players were involved in a No Limit Texas Hold 'Em tournament at the MotorCity Casino. There is a special irony involved here, since former Detroit Red Wing Darren McCarty filed for bankruptcy, many citing gambling losses as one significant cause of his financial distress. In addition, NHLers Jaromir Jagr and Rick Tocchet have suffered through gambling-related scandals.
Obviously, the NHL must take a different view of casino gambling than Major League Baseball. Of course, the NBA held its All Star Game in Las Vegas in 2007, so the NHL would not be alone in its changing views of casino gambling.
