This makes Des Moines *and* Omaha joining the AHL next year (plus Toronto and Worcester->Peoria).

Ari? Ben? any comments? :-)

This has been speculated for several months. Finally got the deal done a couple days ago. Too much hockey for Omaha as far as I'm concerned. They now have two USHL teams within an hour, plus UNO. UNO plays in an amazing 15,000 seat facility. The Flames will play in an old, crappy barn in downtown. The Flames will finally have their own farm team again and that team will be very good if there is still no NHL.
