That would be an interesting thread topic, ranking the pro hockey leagues.
I know UEFA (soccer) rates it's member's leagues and assigns a coefficient based on how well they do in European competitions.
I would rank the leagues roughly as this: (with no real reason other than what I perceive to be level of competition)
2. KHL
3. Sweden
4. AHL
5. Germany
6. Switzerland
7. Finland.
I think some of the traditional leagues may have dropped due to their biggest clubs heading to the KHL.
