Ok, let's get the source scrutiny out of the way. Hockeyfeed is a click bait source. Won't ever deny that. That said, they have been following this for a while, and at one point was even tracking plane traffic, revealing that bettmans private plane, as well as karmonos plane has been frequently visiting QC. is this going to happen? I don't know, I think it's a long shot. But hell, beats d list posters arguing this season is a tank, I suppose.

It should be noted that Daley has refuted to rumors

I'd prefer they resurrect in Hartford as the Whalers.

No arena sadly. The civic center is not really a good option.

Anywhere but North Carolina is a good option. Those people don't know **** about hockey and don't deserve a team.

This.

Normally I hate it when any team moves, only because I don't want to see it happen to my teams. But this needs to happen.

I went to two games in Hartford. (Sabres and Blackhawks). It was literally in a mall

Same here, but when a team moves that was moved in the first place, it's karma. This may be oversimplifying it, but in my view, the franchise was stolen from Hartford. It makes me happy to see it repossessed.

The buffalo media was disgusted and appalled by the lack of energy and excitement regarding the Hurricanes around Raleigh and in the PNC arena during the 2006 Eastern conference finals

IIRC, the Canes lost their first two playoff games to Montreal and the "fans" bailed on them. They only came back after the Canes pulled off the series win. Also, they lucked into that Cup win because when they beat us in the finals, we were basically using the Amerks' defense because we had so many injuries, then Edmonton's goalie got injured in the finals. They really had no business winning that cup.

When my brother was in the Navy in the subs he was stationed at Groton Sub base, we drove to Conn. to celebrate Easter with him and we went to Hartford and passed the Civic Center and there was chains on the doors and a small plaque that was bolted on one of the doors saying "the whale will return to Hartford someday".

They didn't use the civic center for anything else? Minor league hockey, concerts, ice shows, circus, Monster Truck rallies?

Why did they chain shut a still used arena? I think you are lying. Again.

recently saw Pearl Jam in civic center in 2013. it's horribly small and has a hard time accommodating a full house. lines for drinks, food and bathroom. Things that don't happen at modern facilities. the seat count is also pretty small. No way they could reasonably take an NHL team. no boxes either.

My Brother was stationed at the Sub base in Groton in 2002

I worked across from the sub base for 3 months in 91/92 in New London.
