Relocating Failing Southern U.S. NHL Franchises to Canada

they are thinking of relocating failing U.S. hockey teams back to Canada,
possible Quebec City, Winnipeg, Hamilton.. This makes me really happy,
I thought they'd never come back, I loved the Nordiques and Jets, just for
Nostalgia. I'm a Habs fan

"Despite Canadian billionaire Jim Balsillie’s recent failed
attempt to buy the Phoenix Coyotes and re-locate the franchise to Hamilton ON.,
there is plenty of activity and conjecture which suggests that Canada could yet
be home to one or more struggling presently US based
franchises. At the same time, a number of struggling franchises in the “Sun Belt”,
combined with a strong
Canadian dollar and an abundance of available infrastructure dollars
for new arenas make re-location(s) a realistic possibility."

I would love to see the Nordiques back. I miss the rivalry between Montreal and Quebec. Go Habs!

 

you know the Arena would be packed too, Some of these Florida, Atlanta, Carolina games, there isn't even anybody there.. Montreal sold out every game lol

 

It'd be sweet to see the Nordiques again! Awesome! I was just thinking yesterday, how it's a shame there are so few Canadian teams in the league.
