I'd be curious to see if there are any other instances of multiple franchises rotating through the same entity. Could we see more like it in the future? The Hamilton Bulldogs did that with the Oilers (1996-2002) and Canadiens (2003-2015) The Oilers moved their farm team to Toronto to become the Roadrunners, and the Quebec Citadelles (Montreal) moved to Hamilton to become the Bulldogs.

Jer15 Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 ^ and then they moved to Saint John's......well sorta. I tried to explain this to one of my closest friends. She's from Burlington (just outside of Hamilton) and didn't get how one year her local team was in the AHL and the next in the OHL (if you ask her it's the OHA, I don't wanna be that guy,,,, but I kind of also do.

Haha, tell her that her local team (the OJHL's Cougars) are in the OHA, and watch her brain explode!
