The NHL is thinking outside the box in their search for a venue for the 2024 draft.
The league is considering hosting the next draft at The Sphere in Las Vegas, reports TSN's Chris Johnston.
The Sphere is a groundbreaking, 18,600-seat music and entertainment arena located just off of the Las Vegas strip. It's garnered attention for its advanced audio and video capabilities, wraparound LED screen, and 4D physical effects.
U2 played the $2.3 billion venue's first concert on Sept. 29.
NHL Drafts have primarily been held inside a team's arena over the last 30 years.
