NHL eyeing European expansion????

I hope it doesn't happen anytime soon, you have to think the best Swedish talent would be happy to stay and/or sign as free agents with a team there. 

 

I think it could possibly work, Winnipeg-FLA showed it can happen. They could probably do one road trip like that for each team and get away with it. But its the 2 month road trips for the Euro teams that might be unfair. They'd probably have to do a weird schedule where Euro teams here had "home ice" for some games.

Would be all for a champions league format.

Other option would be European affiliates similar to AHL on NA ice.  Expand a teams number of allowable contracts from 50 and allow a local and European affiliate or even better a European junior affiliate.

I think better idea is to skip the whole thing.
