I thought the article about Ron Geary looking at buying a piece of Flint was interesting. If blackngold is right and Flint will have no place in the now combined IHL-CHL, then would they look to step down and join the AAHL?

One of the articles (and I'm not sure where I read it now) mentioned an Ohio team being very close to signing. That would be a nice addition as well.

As far as Madison and Muskegon having to "compete" against the other teams in their markets, I think if they played their cards right, they could use those teams to their advantage. Mine those resources for support and cross promote the teams.

Personally I'd like to see some teams come in closer to us. Michigan drives are tedious. :D
