I agree, i've never understood why they put teams in Carolina, Nashville, Tampa, Atlanta or a second one in LA... Quebec City and Winnipeg should have kept their teams and with the economy in Canada a lot better than it was 10 years ago i hope they'll find a way to have teams back there. If the NHL want a good business plan and make their business grow they'd better make an european division (Stockholm, Prague, Helsinki, Moskow, a german team) than try to sell hockey in the Sun Belt!
