In some recent ESPN sports documentaries I’ve seen like Unrivaled and Saving Sakic I’ve felt that the fact that both were produced in collaboration with the NHL they glossed over the Quebec Nordiques moving. It was mentioned but it’s one of those things that they wanted to move past as fast as possible. Therefore, in honor of Canada Day I share a short film and a web video segment about Canada’s once (and future?) eighth NHL team. The film is about the establishment of the team in WHA and the web video discusses some of their history joining the NHL and then moving.

The second video can be viewed here.
