Divorce Ahead For Panthers And Amerks?
It’s going to be a long summer and long season unless Dale Tallon can come in and work some magic to smooth things over. The affiliation between the Amerks and Panthers has had some rough times but they seemed to be making progress. Stay tuned, it’s going to be interesting.
The AHL and NHL do not provide a list of current affiliation lengths between teams so there’s no real way to say what other team would be available. Get ready for another lame duck season and world of distractions.
