Not sure it would fly in every market (even Calgary/Edm/Vancouver) as pre-season games are typically pretty empty. But with Toronto's rabid fanbase it's a good move.

Preseason games aren't empty in Edmonton. Not even close.
The Oilers actually add preseason games into the mini-packs they sell so fans are forced into buying them.
The building is usually almost full for the preseason games.
