PRESS RELEASE
BRAMPTON -- The Brampton Beast, proud members of the ECHL, are excited to announce the Montreal Canadiens of the National Hockey League and St. John’s Ice Caps of the American Hockey League as their NHL and AHL affiliates.
The Beast, who will be entering their third year of operations in the fall, were without a major league affiliate in their inaugural ECHL season, and finding the right partner was a major priority for the team this summer.
"Montreal is the most iconic franchise in the NHL," said Beast President and General Manager Cary Kaplan.
