People seem to be losing track of the fact it would be very temporary. If the hypatherical happened, it might be an inconvenience at worst for the players. We aren't talking about something life altering.
Atlanta would make the most sense, but it also depends on arena availability. The NHL can't just say we want them to play there, so everyone else has to move over. Quebec has the Remparts playing in their arena, but I could see the city moving hell and earth to make some temporary concessions and compensation to make it happen. Would Atlanta do that? Quebec City would also keep them relatively close to most of their divisional teams.
I don't know, maybe some of the college or minor league arenas in the southeast could be a temporary home as well. That could be another option.
