I ordered a set to play 8-Lynx in Modern. I think it's going to make Zoo a tier 2 deck again. Modern generally has a pretty broken metagame, but the more degenerate it gets the less focused it is on removal. I envision t1 Hellhound/Lynx, t2 fetchland, Burning Tree Emissary, Reckless Bushwhacker, attack for 10. If I can't play Zoo in legacy I'll play it in Modern, it was my first real deck I built way back in Extended during the LSV/Elves era that I converted into my first Legacy deck.

If fetchlands/Grim Lavamancer become tech for Burn again I could easily see Hellhound in that kind of list alongside GG/Swiftspear/Grim.
