I know you are talking about now but back in the old six team NHL, good players were banished to the AHL or old pro WHL for looking the wrong way. Often these players would settle in with one team and get NHL type salaries, players Phil Maloney in Vancouver or Guyle Fielder in Seattle. Heck even Andy Bathgate played in Vancouver while I believe still a capable NHL player.
