People are worried about the talent being diluted in the NHL?

Imagine what the AHL would look like after losing their top 100 players, and likely also expanding by 4 teams. It is already the most boring brand of hockey on the planet.
Expanding 4 teams at once would be a poor move but a 2 team expansion wouldn't affect the AHL much. A lot of the players would come from Europe as well.

Your knock at the AHL is ridiculous. Apparently you haven't watched no hit Swedish hockey and college hockey isn't much better.
