the problems that Canadian cities are to small to support NHL calibre teams. Every city has a hockey team or 2 or 3, for instance Ottawa has both the Senators which is their NHL team nad the 67's which is their OHL team. Because Canada's population is only 30 million, 1/10th of the US's, our cities are much smaller. 1/6th of Canadians lives in the Greater Toronto Area, cities like Edmonton which has a NHL team are only something like 300 000 to 500 000 people big.
