I think that's why they chose Chicago. The Wolves are not really a developmental team, they max the vets out and try to win.
Normally that wouldn't be ideal for prospect development, but the coffer will be so bare that won't matter much in the interim. Makes a lot of sense to match up these two.

Apparently the affiliation is for five years, so while the Knights might eventually have their own team for development purposes it's not likely to happen in the next couple of years.
