No hating, just some reality. I would really like to see Quebec back in the NHL as well, but how can you hold your nose and shake your head and critisize COG, then turn around and support anouther city, who's going to take an even larger, gamble and spend millions upon millions of public money to build an arena? I guess it IS thier money to spend, and if that is what the MAJORITY of the citizens wish to spend it on....have at it. But I'm confident, without the proper research, and guarentees, that this project will in the longrun, hurt the city/province, and in turn have them come looking for the Feds. to bail them out of the mess they have gotten themselves into. IMO It's fiscally irresponsible.More people should be begging TNSE to show them how to successfully accomplish what they have, instead of going the government owes us, let them pay route.
Just a thought; QC cutting 65 million in city adminastrative costs. Hmmm...... Wonder whats going to be getting cut?

Don't hate me here-- but I really didn't give a crap when the Nords left and really don't care whether or not Quebec returns to the NHL.
I remember actually looking forward to the Colorado Avalanche.

If Quebec gets a team back so be it-as long as its after us.
I really don't care though as long as Winnipeg has a team. There are Quebec boards out there to get behind their cause. This is a Winnipeg board.

Wow!.. to go on one of Canada's most watched morning shows and "promise" that has got me thinking that there are people in the media who know damn well what's going on!!!.. I find it strange that in his rant he doesn't mention PHX once!. who knows, maybe GB knew all along that GWI was going to put an end to things, prep eveyone behind the scenes and "fix a wrong" twice!!... then retire as a Canadian folk legend!!... LOL!

Do you have stats to back that up? I do hear you though. With a lot of false reporting, I understand your frustration.

I would like to say as Canadians we should stick together, but that could lead into 3 pages of me getting my _ss ripped.

I don't think this site should give any more attention to the Quebec-NHL thing than it already has had. Look at how our national news handles this? If there is Winnipeg NHL talk its dumbed down -- when its Quebec, its front and center.

As soon as they openly say they are proud to be Canadian I will be happy to support them as Canadian. Until then they are just another group of pretenders out there. All talk and no show .. kind of reminds me of Broken Ice Edge. When they have an actual building and an owner in place maybe I'll be able to take them more serious. Until then it is ALL talk.
