Damn these questions used to be an easy Ottawa answer but now there is actually a team in Ottawa! I would probably want to expand further out just to have some fun with the sim league. Mexico City Revolution?

I would definitely add the Hollow Earth Lizard People to the league, the based truth seers of the league finally need som representation. Or maybe the lizard people have already invaded the league, who's to know.

As a resident of Northern California (by which I mean actual NorCal, so above Sacramento) I have to argue for a hometown team. Shasta Prospectors! The mountains here are full of activity in the winter anyhow, so adding hockey would be an easy sell methinks.

antarctic is unexplored territory and i believe that we should conquer the land and use it as one big ice rink so that a team can be homed there. we would be able to play outdoors all year round

Restructure the entire SHL site. Move more traditional "NHL" markets into the SHL (Colorado, Detroit, Ottawa, Vancouver), move less traditional markets into the SMJHL (Baltimore, NOLA, Hamilton). Abandon all IIHF and WJC and turn it into an Olympics style every 4 seasons big hullabaloo and get real excitement going. Oh, and abandon Quebec as a IIHF, stinky french.

wow what a sensitive subject after I failed @MrPresident and @Troy_McClure03
anyways, next expansion I would like to see an Ohio team. It would be a perfect team for the haters to hate on but also great for those like myself who have the desire for playing on an Ohio team. But like Columbus, Cincinnati, Cleveland, plus so many more options for a destination!

oh buddy, if im getting an expansion team, im bringing back prince george to the j. yeah, its three teams in bc. and guess what pal. I DONT CARE!!!!! bring them back

The new team would be the Ouagadougou Wanderers. True, Burkina Faso isn't exactly a traditional hockey country, but it's time to change that and go international baby!

I think we should add in a san diego team with better branding. San Diego is a fantastic city that is passionate about it's sports franchises (RIP Chargers) and they deserve to root for a hockey team that doesn't have an ugly logo

I think I would like to add 2 new SHL teams to the league, one in each conference. It would really help balance out the teams and give more opportunities to the younger SHL players to get involved quicker and stay relevant for longer

Expand the league to Mexico whether that's IIHF, SHL or SMJHL. My players have been from Mexico, except for the first one, and they've opted to play for Switzerland, but I would play for Team Mexico too.
RE: S79 mPT #2: Expansion Ideas - Matteo - 10-27-2024
I think we should add a Quebec City team to the SHL so that there's a Quebec in all four leagues. Other than that, a team on the moon would be great.
RE: S79 mPT #2: Expansion Ideas - jacobcarson877 - 10-27-2024
I would add the Wisconsin Cheese Pirates. They do cheese things and pirates are intimidating, and what pirate wouldn't pirate for cheese while playing hockey.

I know Halifax used to have a team, but I would love to see a team somewhere in the Maritimes. Whether that be back in Halifax or elsewhere, I think it would be a cool location for an SMJHL team.
RE: S79 mPT #2: Expansion Ideas - CybershadeEDM - 10-27-2024
I think it would be funny to see a team in a very random state where hockey isn't really known like Kansas or New Mexico.
