The smart money says the Pittsburgh Penguins will stay in Pittsburgh. If not stadium Plan A, then stadium Plan B. So the talk about a second NHL franchise in Southern Ontario probably is just grist for the mill. The surprising thing about the idle speculation is that there are so many people who think it couldn't work.
The notion that this is Maple Leaf country and nothing else never has been truly tested. There still may be some fans of a certain (aging) generation who are married to the Blue and White but if you gave the majority of them a vibrant young NHL team, accessible and nearby, the guess here is it would go big.
