Quote: Some big changes this season with Poopity finally getting to transfer. Not sure how I feel about expansion when CZE can barely field a team but if the numbers back it up ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Actually, that was one of the things discussed by @artermis and I in my article on possible IIHF expansion: http://simulationhockey.com/showthread.php?tid=90959

Basically, one of the most important signs to look for was the fleshing out of existing nations with fewer members before expansion could be a possibility. He even pointed to Czechoslovakia in the S30's as an example, and I actually created Zvejnieks because I didn't see as many Latvian players as other nationalities.

So hopefully if there is a push for new nations to be added, recreates and new members might be encouraged to look at alternatives to stacked nations like Canada and the USA, and be more inclined to sign up for Czechoslovakia in the coming seasons!
