The fact that Hamilton is also 45 minutes away, and Milton/Mississauga is also right there, it should have more than enough population to draw from. The only question is if those other towns would switch their allegiances. KW would, but would London, they are already split Leafs/Red Wings (more Leafs, but not an insignificant number of Wing fans).
Any talk of where a new arena would go? The Memorial Auditorium is too small even for a retrofit, isn't it (last time I was there was in '93)?
