New York Islanders plan to move their AHL affiliate to Hamilton, Ontario

The relocation requires approval by the AHL Board of Governors. Should the move be permitted, the team currently known as the Bridgeport Islanders will play at TD Coliseum in Hamilton, which completed major renovations last fall. A team name, logo and ticketing information for the Hamilton market will be announced at a later date, pending AHL approval, the franchise said.
