I agree with you on that one. There should be more teams in Canada and even in some more US places that actually support hockey. Winnipeg, Hamilton and Quebec City for sure in Canada. And as for the US I would like to see a team Seattle, Portland, Milwaukee, Indianapolis and Hartford. Seattle and Portland especially. Both of those cities support junior hockey. Even though those teams compete in the Western Hockey League witch is part of the CANADIAN Hockey League. Do you think Kansas City or Vegas could support a team that (other than 3 other American teams in the WHL) mostly plays teams from small Canadian towns in Saskatchewan like Swift Current or some thing? I don't think so.
