It doesn’t matter if you’re interested Mr French Guy, it matters if it makes sense from a business perspective, which it doesn’t. Admittedly, Quebec makes more sense than playing in a College barn, but there are several better options to put the Yotes than Quebec. On the other hand, if Bettman truly insists on this franchise never making any money, Quebec would be perfect

That’s how everyone should talk to smarmy trash like Bettman.

Who doesn’t hate Bettman?

Look I am no fan of Gary Bettman’s, but PMs do not create teams. Billionaires beg the NHL for the right to pay hundreds of millions to enter the league.
As soon as a legit billionaire wants to put a team in Quebec Bettman will listen.

I don’t think interest is what’s stopping a team from being in Quebec.

Prime Minister? What are you talking about?
robotinforest
Weren’t they sort of replaced by the senators? I don’t think that area can support 3 teams.

Quebec has a team.
Quebec City does not.

The only problem with moving them to Quebec is it only works if either Detroit or Columbus move over to the west… also it’s not even up to Bettman it’s up the board of governors.

He’s a premier, not a Prime Minister. A Premier is similar to an American Governor.

what about Windsor

A Canadian team hasn’t won a cup since Bettman took over. I think the whole country highkey hates him

I’d immediately root for the Quebec nordique… I was a fan as kid from SoCal and way into proving Gary Bettman wrong.

The league is aware, but they also aren’t fucking morons who are going to move a team across conference and create more headaches than Phoenix is already. People gotta stop drinking the stupid juice
deadlygr8ful
Bettman hears.
Bettman don’t care. There’ll be a second team in Arizona before that happens.

How many people in this sub actually think decisions like the jersey and board ads, doubling down on Arizona, no Quebec team, etc. Are actually made by Bettman? He’s not a dictator, he doesn’t give decrees for the NHL to follow. The owners make the decision, he announces it. Him being the lightning rod for criticism from the media and NHL fanbase is exactly why he’s been the longest reigning sports commissioner.

Quebec paid $2m to the NHL in a nonrefundable deposit in 2016…ofc bettman knows they want a hockey team?
AppaJuicee
I mean to be fair he wants to put teams where hockey isn’t so popular, so the game actually grows in popularity. Not saying Quebec doesn’t deserve another team again but that’s what I would think.

Quebec…prime minister?!?!? Sacré bleu!
Nashville_Redditors
So tired of hearing about Quebec!
johnnymavrigg
Blame the sport minister of Quebec! She’s trying to ban fighting in QMJHL and they’ll probably try to do the same thing in NHL! Bettman and NHL want non part of that BS !!!!!!
