The American Hockey League (AHL) is a 29-team professional ice hockey league based primarily in the United States that serves as the primary developmental circuit for the National Hockey League (NHL). The 30 NHL teams have primary affiliation agreements with one of the AHL's active member clubs of which 25 are located in the United States and the remaining four are in Canada.

With the advent of the salary cap the nhlfarmteams have become even more relevant than before. Simply put NHL teams can no longer spend infinite money to create a winning franchise. Now it is more important to have a farm "system". While the AHL is predominant venue for the NHL "feeder" league. The ECHL has placed over 400 players in the NHL including Vezina trophy winner like Tim Thomas of Boston! Hockey fans need to watch this league.

The Anaheim Ducks. UPDATE: For this coming season, the new affiliate of the Ducks will be the Syracuse Crunch.
During the 2009/10 season the Ducks did not have an affiliate in the AHL. They sent their prospects to various AHL teams, most notably the San Antonio Rampage. For the coming season their affiliate will be the Syracuse Crunch.
There are no NHL teams in Oklahoma, but there is an AHL team called the Oklahoma City Barons. They are the minor league affiliate for the Edmonton Oilers.
The AHL schedule will come out sometime in August. It has to come out after the NBA schedule is released because some teams play in NBA buildings (Monsters, Admirals, Aeroes, Rampage).
