Yeah, good point. I wasn't thinking about the AHL.

It does remain to be seen whether those teams are viable. Mississauga's attendance is a constant problem. The Marlies have done better lately, but not sure of their long term prospects.

I guess I should have said that Ottawa is the only market to have two solid major junior teams.
