Depends what was meant by "new team" too... brand new, or relocated/"new to Hamilton"? And if it does turn out to be the Marlies, I think it'll be even more important that they're re-branded. Despite the local Leafs' fanbase keeping the old name would stick in the craw of many Hamilton hockey-viewers.
Hopefully we get basketball and women's hockey too, though it can't happen at the cost of eating into available concert nights.

The arena is way too big for both the CEBL and the PWHL, though both have admittedly drawn big arena-sized crowds at various points recently. And it is probably also too big for the AHL. Maybe whatever curtaining-type of setup they use will make the setting more intimate
