Apologies if this is a dumb question but I have been curious if anyone knows how AHL players view their NHL affiliate teams. Do they follow them/support them during the season?
For example, if a lifelong Canucks fan is drafter by the Leafs and plays for the Marlies, do they root for the Leafs, the Canucks both? If they project to be a career AHLer would this impact it? Just wondering if anyone knows anything about this.
