  • Quest for a Hockey Franchise
    Quest for a Hockey Franchise Alex Faseruk Memorial University of Newfoundland Tom Clift Memorial University of Newfoundland This study documents the history of attracting and maintaining a hockey franchise for the City of St. John’s, Newfoundland and Labrador from 1991-2019. In that period, the City has been granted four franchises. Three have been relocated, while the fourth has completed its inaugural season which resulted in a league championship. It examines: the St. John’s Maple Leafs (1991-2005) of the American Hockey League (AHL); St. John’s Fog Devils of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League (QMJHL) (2005-2008); the St. John’s IceCaps (AHL), affiliated with the Winnipeg Jets (2011-2015) and Montreal Canadiens 2015-2017); and the Newfoundland Growlers in the ECHL, (2018-ongoing). The study focuses on the economic, marketing, strategic planning, and business modelling for a hockey franchise in three hockey leagues, AHL, QMJHL, and ECHL to gauge the long-term sustainability of a hockey franchise in St. John’s. It analyzes key success factors for minor league hockey franchises and speculates on the future direction of the current franchise. Keywords: minor league, franchise, ice hockey, economic viability INTRODUCTION The 1981 Franco-Canadian science fantasy adventure movie Quest for Fire was set in Paleolithic Europe, approximately 80,000 years ago. The movie focuses on three members of a tribe who set out on a quest to find fire. Their village’s fire was extinguished and the tribe does not know how to rekindle a fire. The film deals with the trials, tribulations and battles during these exploits.

A United Nations study has projected the global population will increase from over 7 billion today to approximately 9 billion by 2050. Managing the relationship between water, food and energy is becoming increasingly critical. The recent growth within the craft brewing industry has increased employment and economic growth in Alberta, but has also raised social and environmental concerns. This report shares insights on key performance indicators and best practices of sustainable brewing, based on a literature review, content analyses and interviews with ten local craft breweries across Alberta.
