No reason they shouldn't be drawing thousands if there was interest. Not to mention the revenue that would generate. It can be damn good hockey.

I believe the market is saturated.
1 NHL team
1 Major junior team
2 CIS Men's teams
2 CIS Women's teams
2 Junior A teams
Several surrounding area Junior A/B teams
Several surrounding area Midget AAA teams.
Where would a pro Women's team rank in this list in terms of quality? That is up for debate.
In a metro area of 1.3MM people, that is a lot of hockey entertainment available to us. That is not up for debate.
Don't forget the CFL is the 2nd best football league in the world, and the CanPL soccer is picking up a lot of steam.
