Quebec City? Atlanta? A second team in Toronto? eduhatschek analyzes several NHL expansion possibilities:
Today’s exercise is a little different: Part pie-in-the-sky, part sober realism.
And yet, here are the Coyotes, still operating on a shoestring, aiming for some future when a new arena in Tempe receives approval, gets financing, sees shovels in the ground and ultimately arises from the ashes, like a Phoenix, to become a viable contributing NHL organization. That’s Bettman’s vision and hope. Feel free to wade in on the comment selection below, if you have a different perspective.But before you do that, consider this: Bettman is, first and foremost, a businessman.
As part of the four-team expansion phased in between 1998 and 2000, Atlanta secured a new franchise, the Thrashers, along with Columbus, Minnesota and Nashville. Second time, lucky right? Well, no. The Thrashers lasted a little longer – 11 seasons . The Thrashers floundered on the ice and at the box office and had ownership issues.
Maybe that’s the best hope for a return to Quebec City as well – that Atlanta receives a franchise, discovers it really isn’t a hockey town after all, and needs to find a home elsewhere. Because the NHL has zero interest in returning to Quebec City, even though there are some parallels to Winnipeg, which is making a nice go of it. The downsides are obvious. They are small markets on every level – population, corporate support. The good news is the people who live there really care about hockey.
