With the Norfolk Admirals out as Carolina’s ECHL team and the Chicago Wolves long gone as the AHL connection, the Canes should aim to bring their operation all under one tent. Make either the Carolina Thunderbirds or Fayetteville Marksmen their ECHL team, and make plans to build a new team in Greensboro. From top to bottom, the Canes being in North Carolina would seal the deal for the “North Carolina is a hockey state” claim.
