STL has a rather robust hockey development scene and KC is improving with Hunt funding an arena in the KC metro area.

Hockey's a nonstarter in the KC area. Unlike Nebraska or Iowa, Kansas has little to no tradition of supporting the sport. I just can't see this happening, especially with their push to improve their football program at the moment.
