The EHL is going to self govern according to their release today. Big development among the junior hockey landscape in the US, and especially Mid-Atlantic/ New England regions in the US.
Personally I think it's a bold move on their end, I think the USA hockey affiliation helped make them stronger, and really the argument to leave is if they want to go the USPHL route of using the EHLP as a pay to play feeder for a more Tier II like setup. But in that situation they are still facing the competition form the more established NAHL and USPHL levels.
