We believe a partnership between the largest hockey development league in the world and one of the leaders in Canada in this emerging field will prove to be a winning combination,” said CHL President Dan MacKenzie. “We have some exciting promotions planned for the fans as part of this partnership and we can’t wait for it to come to life.”
