I'd say the Coyotes stay in the West and go to
Seattle, Portland, Kansas City, Houston or Las Vegas.
Thinking the Bell - Rogers partnership with the Leafs won't last with one of them (Bell) accepting a Toronto expansion franchise that will play in the West. TSN gets the regional rights to the new team. QC should fit in somewhere, I just don't know where.

The conferences are already unbalanced, no way that you see a team in the west move east

			My guess is Florida moves to Seattle, and Quebec City gets an expansion team.

			Need a couple western more based teams to even out the conferences, no more eastern teams.

If I recall, the sweetheart deal is tied to having a hockey team as a tennant in the building.

They're in the midst of demanding more money from the county claiming losses.

If they have a great arena deal but still lose money, then that can't be good.

			Quebec City authorizes night construction on new arena. Looks like they are moving heaven and earth to be ready for Fall 2015 . . .
