"provided they come up with the $500 million expansion fee".
That is pretty much all this has ever been about despite any contrary words out of Bettman's mouth.Almost $18 million in free money per team. An absolute windfall. I don't imagine QC wwas ever able to pay that kind of money.
It will be one thing if any owner decides to move his team but if Carolina for instance sells their team for $150 to owners in QC that will be something else.
I have to believe there will be some protections somehow established for this. I also won't be suprprised if we find out the expansion fee in fact ends up lower.
For that kind of money the expansion draft and entry draft rules should be much more attractive to the new team.

It'll probably be LV in every circumstance, no matter who they're playing?

On the surface, it would appear that Quebecor balance sheet could eventually curb its enthusiasm for a team since the telecommunications and media company has roughly five times as much long-term debt as equity.
The expansion fee alone is $500 million, and that doesn’t take into account all the other incidentals that come with mounting an NHL-ready team.
Analysts, however, are unperturbed by Quebecor’s willingness to hand over such a princely sum. While there’s no guarantee that the nouveau-Nordiques would add any value, as one analyst cautions, there’s no doubt the telco can pony up the cash.
“Whatever franchise they want to buy in the NHL, they have the balance sheet to do that,” said Maher Yaghi, telecom, media and tech analyst at Desjardins Securities.

I still like the "Mob"
The Las Vegas Mob are in town tonight to battle our beloved Flames. Hopefully the good guys can stand up to their shady tactics....
