PKP talks about Quebec City's chances to land a NHL team. For the first time, he publicly states that Quebec may come back in the NHL via relocation. He doesn't point specific markets, but he says:
“At least [team owners] have several scenarios, which is interesting for them and interesting for what other cities in North America are able to provide to the league,” Péladeau said. “At the end of the day, if there is a location where you have a strong business plan and a passionate owner with financial means, you have more possibilities to win and to participate in the total wealth of the league instead of subsidizing continuously some pieces.
“There is a market, but the market’s not there. The arenas are not full. I’m not going to say they’re empty, but they’re far from being full.”
The NHL’s expansion era may be ending with Seattle. What’s that mean for Quebec City?
