SHL Team: West Kendall Platoon
Affiliate: Orlando Battalion Having your affiliate in the same state is a great boon for many teams, and as such both Tampa and Miami would be fighting over placing their affiliate in Orlando. The city itself, is closer to to Tampa than Miami but when looking as to where to place an affiliate close by the other options were Jacksonville or Tallahassee. Unfortunately, Jacksonville is not a hockey town and Tallahassee is too far out in the eyes of Platoon management. The team will be named the Orlando Battalion. This fits in with the military organization theme and although the size of a battalion is much larger than a platoon, it speaks to the refinement the players would go through in the minors. The ultimate goal is to grind away the weaker players and to produce SHL caliber players and this would fit with the name and philosophy of the franchise. For the staffing, I would personally partner up with @Acsolap as we both have experience with running a junior team. |
