Honestly, I agree with you landshark... but it's just frustrating to see that a franchise like that isn't being moved to a city that salivates for it.
Thing is those in QC should understand that it's not a matter of if, but when they're going to get a team now. May not be via relocation due to semantics, but they should be icing a hockey club within the next several years.
