    Sadly, the mall no longer exists-at least not in its prior form.

    The Wolf Pack has been using it as their home arena since the Whalers left. Why would anyone feel the need to make **** up all the time?

    I would love to see a team back in Quebec.
    Political correctness ( or cancel culture as it is called today) is a doctrine fostered by a delusional ,illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by MSM which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.

    Seven Canadian cities not in the playoffs are enough.

    Maybe if they had a regional team between Regina and Saskatoon. I don't think either city could support an NHL franchise on their own and it's a pretty far drive between the two.

    How about Halifax? Heck, they could kayak to road games in Boston! ;-)

    I remember when the hurricanes almost left hartford for detroit. Yeah, detroit was about to have two teams.

    IF...and that's a really big if...there was a regional team in Saskatchewan, it'd have to be in Saskatoon; the SaskTel Centre holds just over 15,000. Regina's arena only handles 6,000 and change. (This would be the opposite of the CFL, where the Roughriders are based in Regina.)

    Re: Rumor: hurricane to relocate to quebec

    I'll never forget in 06 when the Sabres were playing the Hurricanes in the conf final we were on vacation in Myrtle Beach. We went to a sports bar one night to watch the game and I was wearing a Sabres jersey. There were 4 local rednecks in Canes gear sitting at the bar and the only **** they could think of to make fun of the Sabres was Thurman Thomas losing his helmet in the Super Bowl.

    ****ing losers.

    I was at game 7. We owned that arena.

    It was the beginning of a deep seated hatred that Carolina fans have for Buffalo, and the feeling is mutual.

    I usually hate it when teams move, but having to suffer through a Stanley Cup parade less than a mile from my house when I lived in Raleigh makes this case a lot different.

    NC fans are *******s and they don't deserve a hockey team. This will be just deserts.

    Re: Rumor: hurricane to relocate to quebec

    So, a decision has been made about expansion. But these relocation rumors are popping up.

    I've read Vegas is getting an expansion team, while the NHL will defer on quebec. So maybe canes to quebec is what is holding up their expansion bid?

    Could be nothing. Could be something.
