3rd times a charm? Guess we know how QC gets their franchise back!

Atlanta, seving up NHL franchises to Canadian cities since 1980.

They’ll have to buy the Coyotes to complete the circle.

Calgary, Winnipeg…

This is how Quebec City gets a team back.

It’s my favourite investment. I’ll bring 1/700th and you bring the other 699.

I mean...if I were an Atlanta business owner/potential investor my thoughts would be: "Hell No."

Having lived in Calgary for 26 years then moving to Georgia and now living here for ten years, it doesn’t make a lot of sense why they can’t sustain it. The problem was their location. Downtown Atlanta has a culture that doesn’t care about hockey. It’s part of why the Braves moved so far from Turner field. They went to a different audience that is more north. A hockey team would do better north of the perimeter road and may survive
