Stadiums & Arenas of Canada, Part 3

[bridgeoftea]

I know the America vs Europe sports debate comes up every so often. But it is wild to me that the GTA doesn't have at least 3 teams in the NHL. Again different sport and different cultures but cities like Manchester, Liverpool, Lisbon, London, Edenborough can all support multiple football teams. Yet because of the closed shop nature of a franchised league, we are robbed of some really fun intercity rivalries.

I mean if you can take a train from Newark Penn to Penn Station New York - NJ Devils to NY Rangers in less than 20 minutes and have 2 teams. Why does the GTA not get that opportunity?

Forever wish to see an alternate universe of the NHL adopting the football promotion / relegation aspect with more community based teams that became big. Just thinking how fun would it be in a North American cup to watch the Montreal Canadians go to Charlottetown to play their 4th division professional team.
