I was curious if there has been any talk about further US expansion/relocation to the USA for any of the CHL leagues.

I think there are enough American teams.
Do the majority of CHL fans share this view? I've love if you guys expanded on your thoughts. Is it bad for the league, and specifically why? Is it a positive sign of growth? And so on...go pierre hedin said:Canadian Hockey League.

go pierre hedin said:It's the Canadian Hockey League, I think 8 or 9 American teams are plenty to attract Americans to the game.
There's plenty of American programs where players have developed for decades.

Was there a reason given as to why Everett was awarded the franchise and not Victoria?evman150 said:The new Everett team this year was the reason Victoria couldn't get a whl expansion franchise. Normally I don't mind a few American teams, but when it takes away a spot of a Canadian team, ya I get mad. Especially when the american team takes the spot away from my home town.
go pierre hedin said:Absolutely not.But it's the Canadian Hockey League... not the North American Junior Hockey League.There are plenty of American teams.

North America.PhoPhan said:So why are there Canadian teams in the American Hockey League?
USA and CanadaPhoPhan said:Better yet, why does the National Hockey League consist of multiple nations?
go pierre hedin said:The AHL is not a U.S. league... it's a North American league.
You don't see U.S.H.L. teams in Canada.

Oh snap!TMHUNH said:Not right now you don't. But last time I checked the Thunder Bay Flyers (former USHL team) played in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
sec17 said:The OHL would like a team in New York State to take away players from the QMJHL. There was some talk a few years ago about expanding to Elmira but they got a UHL team instead. Lately the talk has been about suburban Buffalo.
Bud The Spud said:I think since it is titled the "Canadian Hockey League" it should remain that way. It would be unfortunate if Canadian teams were relocated to the US.
