All NHL/ECHL affiliations are now sorted for the season.
Most agreement durations are known, some announce "multi-year" durations, while others quietly extend their agreement without fanfare. As one person told me "We extend annually. It would be repetitive to issue a statement every year."

What are some fun accounts to follow on Bluesky related to the Montreal Canadiens? I need to spruce up this place with new follows. Looking for drama-free accounts with a sense of humour. Basically, another me. 😄

Another ECHL affiliation shored up for 2025-26 with San Jose extending with Wichita. Only two known affiliations remain to be renewed.
A lot of stability in the affiliations this year.

An interesting interview with Filip Mesar from the Slovak press.
His rookie season was derailed by injuries (torn ligaments in ankle, shoulder). Will he be able to overcome the slow professional start this coming season?

Vymazal si facebook a žije sa mu lepšie. Motiváciou je stále NHL, je to blízko, ale zároveň ďaleko, hovorí Mešár - Denník Šport
Zranenia mu rozbili dobre rozbehnutú sezónu.

The Lions are starting to take form for next season. They have the most players signed of all the ECHL teams so far. I added some players below on AHL deals that I forecast being assigned to the Lions to start the season.
At 19 players, there are three roster spots left. (Four for the first 30 days)

The 1909 "Le Canadien" of Ambrose O'Brien only played a single season. George Kennedy was given the Haileybury Comets NHA franchise on Nov 12th, 1910 and named his team the "Canadian Athletic Club".
So the Montreal Canadiens of today claiming that their history started in 1909 is a bit of a stretch.

The Lions de Trois-Rivières have already signed 10 players for next season, the most of any ECHL team so far.
For those unfamiliar with the league, all contracts are for one year, but there are certain mechanisms for retaining player rights. Generally-speaking, teams start from scratch every summer.
