Vegas, Quebec in hunt for teams

-

Las Vegas and Quebec City advanced to the third and final formal stage to land NHL expansion franchises.

A person familiar with the process told the Associated Press the third stage involves the NHL reviewing the applicants’ business plans and revenue projection­s. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the NHL has not revealed the details of the process.

The third stage is scheduled to end next month. Barring setbacks, it would then be up to the league and board of governors’ approval to award expansion franchises, the person added.
