Default Nice article from a Seattle journalist :)

I am so happy to read this article from Geoff Baker, The Seattle Times the link : http://seattletimes.com/html/hockey/..._hockey04.html

I will put some interinsting segment:
Seattle has plenty to offer as an NHL destination and the rivalry with Vancouver would definitely make the city a top candidate for a relocation of the Coyotes. But Quebec City appears a more viable destination, given the speedy time frame if the league wants the Coyotes in a new home by October. For one thing, Quebec already served as home to a National Hockey League franchise with the Nordiques from 1979-80 through the 1994-95 season and has broken ground on a $400 million arena.

When it comes to a temporary arena where a relocated Coyotes franchise could be housed, Quebec again has an edge over Seattle's KeyArena. Quebec would house its new NHL franchise at the Colisee Pepsi, a 15,176-seat venue that served as home to the Nordiques for 15 years and has continued to host international tournaments and major junior hockey in recent years. The new arena package has already set aside $7 million to refurbish the Colisee as a temporary home to any new franchise.

In Quebec, the new team would be headed by Montreal-based Pierre-Karl Peladeau and his Quebecor media empire, which has broadcast and marketing infrastructures already in place and has secured naming rights to the new arena for $63.5 million.

The safest move for the NHL appears to be flip-flopping the Quebec and Seattle roles if the goal is a new home for the Coyotes come October. Let the Coyotes move to a Quebec market that is ready to take on a team on short notice and make Seattle the expansion partner for Markham down the road.

YEAH YEAH YEAH GO NORDIQUES GO GO COYOTES GO I hope this guy say the truth he is leaving in Seattle and say the city is not ready and know Quebec city is ready to be the new home of the COYOTES, GO NORDIQUES GO!!!

I hope you're right...it would be great if you guys got your team back. Winning the cup the first year in Denver after all those painful years in the basement....Quebec deserves some good karma after watching that happen.

They need to get a CFL team in Quebec too.
