Apparently if Pittsburgh does not build a new stadium the league might let the team go. Durin intermission of the leafs/sens game they said that the guy who bought the team has a deal set up for an arena in Hamilton or something.

Theres no market to support it, just like there was none in winnipeg. All the markets in Canada are saturated.

Not everyone can afford 40-100 dollar tickets + parking and food

Hamilton? With the Salary Cap I'd suspect Winnipeg or Quebec City might be feasible again, maybe.

I think the people in Quebec city might have something to say about that ;)
