Gary Bettman had an unexpected meeting on Tuesday and is trying to defend himself with a ridiculous statement

We told you on Tuesday, there were several personalities present for the national funeral of the great Guy Lafleur, including NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman, and also, the Premier of Quebec François Legault.

It turns out that Mr. Legault didn't hesitate to give Commissioner Bettman a little reminder. He told him about the return of the Quebec Nordiques and reminded him that Quebec City is very interested in having an NHL team again.

"Arizona is a terrific market (...) one of the fastest growing (...) it is not as fragile as some people think" - Gary Bettman
Mr. Bettman also confirms having crossed Mr. Legault at the funeral of Guy Lafleur and the interest of Quebec City was reminded to him. That's all.

Ayoye... Still unreal to hear the commissioner say, being sincere, that Arizona is "an incredible market" and "one of the fastest growing markets". Let's remember that they will play, as a secondary team, in an arena with less than 5000 seats, starting next year. This is embarrassing for the league. We are very far from a market in full progress.
