I agree with you about Calgary not being at the top of the list.
I do think, however, that it would do alright. Just as in the rest of the country, it's the most participated-in sport in the city. A couple cousins of mine played, and a bunch of my friends played as kids. Quite a ways down the road, I could see a team drawing decent numbers.
