The Columbus Blue Jackets will reportedly move their AHL affiliate to Cleveland for the 2015-16 campaign.
To do that, the Blue Jackets would take the Lake Erie Monsters, which was affiliated with the Colorado Avalanche in 2014-15, under it's umbrella. Columbus' current affiliate, the Springfield Falcons, would become affiliated with the Arizona Coyotes instead. The benefit for the Blue Jackets is obvious as these alterations make geographical sense for them. Apr 17 - 10:46 AM
