Hockey fans in Las Vegas will soon be able to show just how interested they are in an NHL team. A ticket drive test is reportedly set to open on February 10. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, billionaire Bill Foley, the man behind the push for an NHL team in Las Vegas, is hoping that at least 10, 000 tickets will be sold. Season ticket deposits will range from $150 to $900. Foley has said that he already has a lease agreement with MGM Resorts and AEG for a 20, 000 seat arena that is currently under construction. He has joined with the Maloof family, the ex-Sacramento Kings owners, and others to form the Las Vegas Founding 50. The group also includes boxer Floyd Mayweather and poker player Daniel Negreanu, who are each pledging to sell 60 season tickets. Seattle and Quebec City have been mentioned with Las Vegas as possible expansion cities, however the league has yet to commit to adding any more teams. A franchise in Las Vegas could help solve the current conference imbalance, which features 16 teams in the East and only 14 in the West. Josh Taylor Jersey .

Brian Giontas agent Steve Bartlett told La Presse on Tuesday that the Montreal Canadiens want to keep their captain - an unrestricted free agent on July 1 - in the fold, while sources tell the paper that the two sides will start talks this week.ABIDJAN -- Didier Drogba and Yaya Toure were picked for Ivory Coasts provisional World Cup squad of 28 players on Tuesday. Drogba and Toure are expected to form the spine for Africas top-ranked team when it plays Japan, Colombia and Greece in Group C in Brazil. Toures brother Kolo, a Liverpool defender, was also on the preliminary list released by coach Sabri Lamouchi, along with strikers Wilfried Bony of Swansea and Gervinho of Roma. Emmanuel Eboue, the former Arsenal and now Galatasaray right back, was not picked and looks set to miss the World Cup. Drogba, one of Africas best-ever strikers, is 36 and almost certainly heading to his last World Cup. Ivory Coast has its best chance of going far at the World Cup in Brazil after being drawn in a relatively manageable group. "I never said it was an easy group ... but we have our chances," Lamouchi said. Lamouchi expressed fears Tuesday at his squad announcement over the fitness of midfielders Souleman Bamba and Mathis Bolly, and Everton striker Lacina Traore, but he picked all three in his preliminary squad. The group will be cut to 23 for the World Cup. The coach also said Drogbas recent lack of game time because of a knee problem was an issue. "Not seeing Drogba on the field is also worrying." Lamouchi said. Yet the Ivorians still have a tallented squad drawn mainly from the Turkish, French, German and English leagues and are expected to perform better than 2010, when they exited in the group stage after being drawn to face with Brazil and Portugal.dddddddddddd The squad will travel to the United States on May 24 for a training camp in Dallas ahead of World Cup warm-up games against Bosnia on May 30 and El Salvador on June 4.
