I’d love their AHL team to come here.

Vancouver and Abbotsford as well.
I remember thinking Saskatoon would be a good place for a Flames affiliate. It's close enough and would be a good place to spread the Flames market. I doubt a lot of people in Stockton or anywhere else the affiliate has been lately, became Calgary Flames supporters just because our prospects played there.
The idea was usually shot down because people said that the AHL wouldn't move to a WHL city, but I guess that isn't the case if this rumour is true.
