I was born and raised in saskatchewan. Still reside here, and if a team was brought to a location such as saskatoon, this province would make it thrive. Even though winnipeg may be one of the closest teams to us, i dont know of many fans. Our Football team should serve as an example of how much pride this province has for our pro sports teams. We pack the stadium in regina all the time. People will drive 4-5hrs to watch a game. They will even sit in the snow. A Pro Hockey team would do the same thing. It would draw from all parts of the province.
