A lot of people have issues differentiating "great to visit" and "great to live". I like visiting Vancouver and the island but wouldn't want to live there. Quebec City is cold in the winter and they get more snow than pretty well any other NHL city. Factor that in and the fact that it's a French speaking city and there's simply a lot of players that are going to cross it off their list even if it's a nice place to visit. Lots of players in the day weren't thrilled about playing there and Lindros was simply the first to make a stand.
