Las Vegas and Quebec City are moving closer in their bids to land a NHL franchise. A Bill Foley-led group and Montreal-based communications giant Quebecor are in the third and final stage of a process to potentially bring the world's top hockey league to Las Vegas and Quebec City, respectively. ''They have been invited to make presentations to the Executive Committee on Tuesday,'' NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly wrote in an email.
