This is a quebecois' fantasy. A team in Quebec City only composed of french-speaking players.
Please note that this is only a quick-made team that is not even close to representing reality (Even more, considering that this team takes place in 2019-2020)
I guess I'll be that guy. Dumoulin and Chiarot aren't French. Plus some of these guys are Franco-Ontarians not Quebecois.
Regional system could save hockey . Back in the days mtl had the 2 first quebec born guys with no first rounder . It should be like this , ARIZONA would have get Matthews , Eichel in his hood etc ... Could be cool if the nordiques would be 100% french speaking , (europeen that actually speak allowed) . Jonathan Toews mother for once is francophone etc ..

Dumoulin has french-canadian ancestry, so does Chiarot. And what I meant with french speaking players isn't that they were born in qc...

easy to blame bettman for the quebec not having a team. is a team financially viable long term in quebec? small business base, small population base.
Wanna compare with the 'Canes? They have the worst attendance in the league even though they have been in the league for a while.
Conpared to them, Quebec City would be full-packed every night (If the tickets aren't too expensive).
Quebec is viable , but its all about new markets , that why nfl plan mexico and london and mlb is looking at mtl for tv deals canada wise and expansion to mexico also ... Nhl bettman is advancing is us agenda ...
