No decision made on possible NHL expansion to Houston or Austin, Texas, after board discusses it‎

Meeting for the first time since the NHL began exploring expansion to Houston or Austin, Texas in June, the league's Board of Governors discussed the topic on Tuesday but did not make any decisions, according to Commissioner Gary Bettman. Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly spoke to billionaire Dan Friedkin's group last week and got a full report, and representatives from the 32 current teams were briefed on the situation with no timetable to consider a possible vote on adding a 33rd.
