‘We are delighted’: The first step towards an ECHL team in Trois-Rivières is made official

The pursuit of an ECHL team in Trois-Rivières has been known for months now, and it has finally come to a point where the city and the ownership of a new franchise have signed a preliminary agreement.

There are still some final details to buckle down however, as per Le Nouvelliste reporter Steve Turcotte.

En ce qui concerne la ECHL à Trois-Rivières, il faut quand même noter qu'il reste des ficelles à attacher. 90 jours sont prévus pour en arriver à une entente finale. Reste que l'annonce d'aujourd'hui est très prometteuse.
