Athlétique.Canadien Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 Cyclones Announce Affiliation With Montreal Canadiens, Hamilton Bulldogs. Goodbye Long Beach I guess. Unless the Habs intend to have 2 ECHL team affiliates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless the Habs intend to have 2 ECHL team affiliates. So... do the Long Beach prospects get transfered to the Cyclones? If so, what of the displaced Cyclone players? Which players and personnel fill the void in Long Beach? Could a resident expert shed some light on the logistics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoZed Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 So... do the Long Beach prospects get transfered to the Cyclones? If so, what of the displaced Cyclone players? Which players and personnel fill the void in Long Beach? Could a resident expert shed some light on the logistics? I dont think it'd have much of an effect. Only 3-4 Habs prospects usually goes to the ECHL, so not too hard finding them spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can qualify a certain amount of players for the next season. Long Beach has it's own team with no NHL affilation (for now) The Cyclones have no players because they have not played in the ECHL for the last 2 years. The team was suspended (they asked to be) I guess for money problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
