Today, the AHL decided that their season would come to a close. It was a harsh reality for that league and the hope is that the NHL doesn't have to follow the same direction that their minor league system did.
This year, the New York Islanders AHL affiliate finished with a 23-33-5 record in 63 games and Kieffer Bellows was the leader in both goals (22) and points (31). Bellows played in 52 games in the AHL this past year and was much more productive than his first year as a pro.
In year one, he had just 12 goals and 19 points in 73 games.
