It has worked and not worked. San Jose is a good market for the NHL because they are the only professional team in San Jose.
San Jose, Nashville, and Tampa Bay have worked. Phoenix, Carolina, and Miami haven't worked and those teams need to move probably.
Luckily there are plenty of places without an NBA team and/or would be hockey friendly like KC, Seattle, Quebec City and Milwaukee.
