It wouldn't work at all. If we got rid of the Hitmen it could, but there's no way we could support three hockey teams that require season ticket bases to be in the thousands.

Plus, three teams couldn't operate out of the Saddledome, and the Corral isn't fit for proffessional hockey. I mean even if they did somehow schedule all three teams at the Dome, we could say goodbye to the already very few concert tours that hit up Calgary.

It would be an absolute disaster, if not completely impossible.
