I also recall there has been some talk about meetings involving QC and Canes ownership to relocate the franchise without change of ownership - but I may misremember

No change in ownership is extremely unlikely given the lawsuit between Karmanos and his sons revolves around daddy using the kids' trust funds to pay for the team's operations. He's going to have to sell the Canes to pay that back.
However, to repeat myself, there is virtually no chance relocation is announced today. It's too late to do anything for 2016-17.
