Psst!...Quebec, If you build it a team will come, and Fisher Traded to Music City

NHL Hockey News - How about the Nordiques coming back to Quebec? I think Colorado Avalanche are safe but then maybe we'll see Quebec get the Phoenix Coyotes. I know the Conservative Party in Quebec are supporting the idea of bringing a team back. The obstacle seems to be a building to play in. They need a new Coliseum or pronounced in french (Coli'see'-Ko-li-zay) I believe the NHL should relocate a struggling franchise like the NY Islanders to Canada. Canadians are passionate about Hockey and so are many of the Quebec'ers. This idea is fully supported by the conservatives. We have all seen the TV images of the french Conservatives in Nordique sweaters, promising a team and taking many friendly pictures with their names on the back of the jerseys. Those french conservatives better hope a team does come because you could bet those conservative MP's will lose their seat next election if they don't. If Quebec gets a team, then 'bye-bye' Winnipeg chances. No more Jets talk. We know for sure Balsilie won't get a team after he Tri-Cities and Hamilton bid when he wanted to buy the Coyotes. Why not bring an NHL team to Peterborough (joking)?

Relating with Peterborough, there is news of Mike Fisher being traded from Ottawa to the Nashville Predators. Fisher wasn't available for comment but Ottawa will lose a favourite. But they get something significant in return. How about a 2011 first round pick and as well a conditional 2nd or 3rd round pick in 2012, which round depends on their playoff performance. Fisher was a second round pick 44th overall in 1998. Fisher plays every game as if it was his last. He has shown a scoring touch but is more recognized for his strong two way play. He can win face-offs, dig and play valuable minutes on the power play and penalty kill. He will fit in with Nashville. Infact, he already has. We all know Fisher married Nashville recording artist Carrie Underwood. This kind of deal could not of worked out better for the couple. Fisher already has friends there. Hopefully he can remain healthy and play for many more years. He has battled injuries throughout his career. The stats for Fisher, he has 521 penalty minutes and 324 points in 620 career games. For Underwood, she is one of the biggest stars in country music today. She is massively successful. She is the highest grossing artist to win American Idol. Second is Jennifer Hudson and Kelly Clarkson is third. Can you tell I love idol? Don't laugh.

Keeping with money and back to Quebec. I believe that the "Belle" Province is rich enough to support an NHL franchise. Of all the 10 provincial economies Quebec has had one of the strongest surviving economies. Here's the kicker the province of Quebec needs a new Coliseum and once they have that built, its now the understanding , then the team will come. Who will build the Arena and what do you think?
