On Saturday night, on TVA Sports, Félix Séguin spoke with the NHL commissioner before the start of Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final.
Félix Séguin asked Bettman if there was any news on Quebec City.

“No news. If there was any breaking news, you (Félix Séguin) would be the first to know.” – Gary Bettman
It seems to me that if news of this magnitude for Quebec had to be announced, Bettman wouldn’t go through Seguin, even though they seem to have a good relationship.
Afterwards, Séguin asked him how his meeting with Quebec Finance Minister Éric Girard had gone.
“We always have good, candid meetings. We’re very aware of his interest. There’s Quebec City, Atlanta, Houston and Kansas City. We’ve also heard about Ohama and Cincinnati. There’s no lack of interest [in the NHL]. So far, we’re not considering expansion.” – Gary Bettman
If there is a new expansion team, it will be the city that offers the most to the NHL in the end, even if the candidate in question hasn’t been in discussions for very long.
Let’s wait and see if there are any new developments on NHL expansion, even if it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen any time soon.
