ECHL Colorado drops affiliation with NHL Winnipeg/AHL St Johns.

Stewart also affirmed the fact the Eagles will consider several options for the upcoming ECHL season. "Eagles fans can rest assured that we have many opportunities to explore for next season. We have already had NHL clubs express interest in potentially forming an affiliation with the Colorado Eagles. We will also investigate the possibility of being independent of an NHL affiliation. We will do our due diligence in making the best possible decision moving forward and allow that decision to put us in the best possible position to win a championship."

Columnist suggests that ECHL Colorado does not get another NHL/AHL affiliation, but be independent.

In a market like that? It will work. Not exactly a hot bed in range of callups in distances. Plus they sell out nightly. They must make a killing in profit.

I figured Fort Wayne would end the affiliation after the season. I expect them to be independent this season.

Yes. Over the last three years or so, the Wolves have affiliated with a CHL team and an ECHL team. This way, the Wolves only signings being sent down doesn't "disrupt" the development of the NHL's prospects in the ECHL.

More News on the Road Warriors


When Trenton closed its doors after the season, the Flyers/Phantoms needed a new ECHL affiliate.

That new affiliate will be the teams' old affiliate: Greenville, as reported by Bill Meltzer.

The Flyers will share that affiliate with the Rangers, which is not uncommon at that level.

Ten players on the Phantoms 2012-13 roster spent time with Trenton, ranging from a couple of games to most of the season.

“The timing of this change is exciting. The day after the announcement of our new head coach, Rich Kromm, we were contacted by another NHL team regarding the possibility of an affiliation agreement. His extensive connections and background in the NHL circle give us a tremendous advantage with our search for a new affiliate.
