Seattle is so much like Vancouver. It could work.

PNW is a pretty good hockey area; they have five WHL teams: Seattle Thunderbirds, Everett Silvertips, Tri-City Americans (Kennewick/Pasco/Richland in the south-east), Spokane Chiefs, and Portland Winterhawks. Everett especially has some insane fans - attendance at Giants games when the 'Tips visit typically swells by a couple thousand of travelling fans and their cowbells.

LOL so you trade Anthony Stewart, Evander Kane, Buttfugly, Johnny Oduya for Aaron Asham, Jordin Tootoo, Rene Bourque and Kyle Chipchura? Apparently Carey Price is native as well.
