Is this idea for an indoor arena or an outdoor stadium?

The Hurricanes are not going anywhere unless the team and the National Hockey League say something differently.

Las Vegas is getting an expansion team. The Canes will be bought by Quebecor and relocated to Quebec by the 2017 season.

They don't have to say a word, and will not announce that "this is the last season, enjoy them while you have them". It will happen overnight, during the offseason, and that's when you'll officially hear about it. Telling Canes fans that this is the last season won't help their cause.

Yes, attendence has been poor at best. But so has the on ice product. They go hand in hand.

It was an indoor arena but smaller than Hockey Sized IIRC and just a general idea long term as a placeholder I'm pretty sure someone just bought the land it would be on so that's probably not happening anyway.

If the Canes move, maybe Raleigh could get a minor league team (to still use PNC). Used to love going to the Inferno games in Columbia. I think a minor league team would do well here. Not sure if investors, NHL officials would be head over heels about coming back to Raleigh after seeing how the Canes have been floundering.

I still would like a pro team in Raleigh. It's not gonna be football or basketball, but Raleigh should have a pro team.

Congrats to the Canes for bringing the state its only championship in professional team sports.

mike, this is jim goodman. When you get done closing on your next home in cary, how would you like to help me put in an offer for the canes and sell their current home? They are looking to downsize and move itb. Schools are not that important, but having a solid hvac is a requirement. No covenants against street parking would be nice too. Do you know of any properties?

Yea, I think if another pro team comes it will be MLS or MLB. Don't see any other sport putting one here.

Oh good grief. Anything posted on hockeyfeed is not exactly credible. The canes are not moving. Least of which is this year.
