Move to Las Vegas

On February 4, 2014, the Capitals, after 28 seasons in Sacramento, announced their move to Las Vegas. The team was renamed the Las Vegas Neon.[1] The new Las Vegas team was shut down a few weeks later, before it even started after owner [2] was arrested for running a Ponzi scheme.[3]
