Moving the Marlies to Hamilton post-reno would make some sense, especially since the renovating company (OVG Group) has ties to MLSE. Right now the Marlies are just lost in Toronto through all the noise of the top-tier sports teams in the city.
The Leafs moved the Marlies to Toronto from St. John's so that it was easier to swap players in and out of the minor leagues - that could still be easily achieved with their feeder team being located 60km down the QEW, and the team may actually be more profitable in Hamilton than it would be in Toronto where nobody has interest in it due to there being bigger fish in the pond.
