Province de Quebec could have given them some tax relief to keep them afloat for a little while until they figured out a long term plan. But the owner was eager to sell with the team destined for Denver.

Its never a fans fault really.. However, Nordique fans wernt a model for support.

Also, Bettman didnt like them as much as the Oilers and Flames, so he didnt fight for them.
