Nordiques vs Canadiens - Premier Match au Colisée (28 octobre 1979) 

it's already here.. it's called the montreal canadiens

@@TheHat--Man la Ville de Québec, not Montréal

@@geoffaldwinckle1096 I went there with my girlfriend Carolyn in 2015--and they did sell Quebec Nordiques souvenirs--in French, of course!

He was an NHL All-Star, and most likely the greatest defenseman the WHA ever had. Would have been on Team Canada '72 if it weren't for Alan Eagleson and Clarence Campbell. Yeah he should have been inducted into the hall a long time ago, while he was still alive to enjoy it.

Without question, had all the credentials and certainly one of the most gifted Canadiens players ever, his WHA stint hampered his inductio n. Imagine him still on the late 70s dynasty

A most underrated two way defenceman! Let’s get this legend in the HHOF!

You are 100 per cent right.

You're right about the Stingers. It was the dismantal draft for the Stingers and Bulls, a couple of days before the amateur draft.

with Cloutier, all you need to know is that injuries suck.

Sunday night games were common in Quebec City.

It was the beginning of the Battle of La Belle Province for the next 16 years! Now les Canadiens, without les Nordiques, owns the entire province of Quebec all to itself; maybe it just was not big enough for two teams in a province (lol)!

@@martinfelsenfeld6012 It was big enough then and it's certainly big enough now. Obviously chances are the Nords will never come back but if they ever do one day, they will be a succesful business, no question about that. And the NHL would actually benefit from a new Nords-Habs rivalry because it's the only hockey rivalry you can liken to those incredible local European soccer club rivalries in Italy, Spain or Northern England. Of course Bettman doesn't care as he sees the NHL as a U.S. major league catering for the U.S. market. The Canadian teams are just being tolerated because of 'History'. And in Montreal, Geoff Molson is obviously playing a double game 'protecting' his market. So there you go, no team in Quebec city. Meanwhile Arizona are allowed to lose money every year and play in a tiny varsity arena. Because you know, Phoenix is such a huge market,... A huge market with very few hockey fans, but who cares.

The fans very loud !great atmosphere !!

C’était vraiment très spécial au Colisée

Effectivement, les droits de Paul Baxter appartenait aux Pingouins de Pittsburgh

The organ at Le Colisee and the Forum was wonderful.
