Today could also be momentous day for hockey in the province.

The Newfoundland Growlers dissolved late last season, leaving a big void on the professional hockey landscape.

For weeks now there has been speculation that the formal league-sanctioned transfer of the struggling Acadie-Bathurst Titan to St. John’s is imminent.

Alex Bill of AllNewfoundland is reporting that the announcement could be coming today.

The Quebec Maritime Junior Hockey League met to discuss the transfer this week, and Bill says the possibility is very real.

Bill says among those involved in trying to make it happen is a newly-formed company involving a number of local well-known business leaders.

People on the board include John Patton the President of Browning Harvey, co-owner of Steers Insurance Jason Sharpe and co-owner of Bannerman Brewing, and the CFO of Steele Hotels, Shaun Keefe.
