the NHL will not relocate a team to southern Ontario. It makes no sense to let someone move there for free when they can add a team through expansion and collect the requisite expansion fees.
It has long been speculated thet TNSE has had discussions about taking over the Coyotes and moving them the Winnipeg (ie. Taking them off the NHL's hands), with the proviso that they could have first crack at an expansion franchise in southern Ontario.
