Bettman not closing the door on NHL's return to Quebec City, but nothing imminent

Bettman, however, assured the media gathered for the meeting that the Coyotes "are fine, and they will be fine," before explaining why the deck continues to be stacked heavily against Quebec City — despite its hockey-mad fan base and the 18,259-seat Videotron Centre that opened in 2015.
"When the Nordiques moved, it was a function of two things," he said. "At the time, there was no prospect of a new building. And ... despite everybody's best efforts, nobody wanted to keep owning a team in Quebec City.
"The world's maybe changed since then, and I'm happy to listen and figure out what it all means."
