I think the NHL tries to force Phoenix into KC or Seattle and then expand into Quebec City and Southern Ontario.
Two reasons: the expansion fee will be much more profitable for the league in this situation, and the Canadian cities will support an expansion team even when they inevitably suck for the first five seasons.
