Which is so easily done, I have no idea why it hasn't happened yet. Edmonton is affiliated with Rochester, but still owns the dormant Road Runners franchise. They sell it to the Stars, and done.

Either that, or the Iowa Chops will be sold and relocated. - though reading about this one, that doesn't seem likely. There is currently a temporary injunction barring someone from buying and moving the team, and officials in Des Moines are fighting to prevent any new owner from moving the team. Though, of course, the league could just terminate the franchise then sell an expansion team to Texas.
