Message: [QUOTE="jncuse, post: 3866570, member: 1969"] I am a bit surprised it never happened as Expansion. Their parallels as a market to Winnipeg are very similar (past and current), and I would suspect they could get similar success as a mid level revenue NHL team. I guess the NHL is more keen on them as a relocation site and using the Quebec City market for leverage perhaps for teams to get a little more either in the current market or on a sale. I'm not going to lose sleep either way if they get it or not, but it would be nice if they got it purely from a rivalry perspective. There is only one pro sports team that I really want back in Quebec and that is the Montreal Expos. But I am not getting my hopes high for this one -- perhaps to protect myself from any disappointment. I was listening to Montreal radio last week, and apparently the 1/2 season Tampa / 1/2 season Montreal baseball season is still a thing -- it seems absurd to me on so many fronts. [/QUOTE]
