Carolina Hurricanes Lose AHL Affiliate
Chicago Wolves Decision Leaves Canes Without AHL Home
Hurricanes Have Strong Farm System
The Chicago Wolves' decision to go independent has left the Carolina Hurricanes without an American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate for the 2023-24 season.
The Wolves, who have been the Hurricanes' AHL affiliate since 2008, announced their decision in a statement on Tuesday. The statement said that the Wolves made the decision "after careful consideration of all available options and in the best interests of the organization."
The Hurricanes have one of the best farm systems in the NHL, and they have been counting on the Wolves to continue to develop their young players. The Hurricanes have several players who are expected to make the jump to the NHL next season, and they were hoping to have them play in the AHL with the Wolves.
The Hurricanes will now have to find a new AHL affiliate. They have a few options, but they will need to move quickly in order to secure a spot in the AHL for next season.
Alexander Nikishin, Scott Morrow, Bradly Nadeau, and Noel Gunler are just a few of the Hurricanes' prospects who will be affected by the Wolves' decision. These players will now have to find a new AHL home where they can continue to develop their skills.
The Hurricanes are a team on the rise, and they will need a strong AHL affiliate in order to continue their success. The Wolves' decision is a setback, but the Hurricanes will need to find a way to overcome this obstacle and continue to develop their young players.
The Hurricanes have a lot of potential, and they have a bright future ahead of them. The loss of the Wolves is a setback, but it is not insurmountable. The Hurricanes will need to find a new AHL affiliate, but they will be able to overcome this obstacle and continue to build a successful team.
