There are so many options for where to put an affiliate team for the Manhattan Rage. You could with the local options like Portland, Maine, Albany, New York, or Newark, New Jersey that could all support a minor hockey team, or you could go with a random out of the region location like St. John, New Brunswick, Canada, Memphis, Tennessee, or Great Falls, Montana that all would likely be able to support a franchise. For this PT, I will be one from each category. Take Great Falls for example. I would name the team the Great Falls Missilemen in honor of Malmstrom Air Force Base, the local military base that houses the 341st Missile Wing of the US Air Force Global Strike Command. The name would honor that organization and still would work in terms of a hockey team. On the flip side, for the local options, if I was putting a team in Newark, I would call them the Newark Angels. Their colors would be a pale blue and white, basically the exact opposite of the Rage. I like the idea of if the team name for the minor league team was going to be related to the organization, it should be the opposite. Makes it more fun in my opinion.
The business side of things would be run by @"luketd" as he is the co-GM of the Rage and the coaching decisions would be run by @Tomasnz as he is the assistant coach of the Rage currently. This would allow for consistency up and down the organization in the way that we play.
