Rumor: AHL Pacific division as soon as 2015? Dreger: says Flames will move west

That divide could shrink soon. Multiple league sources with knowledge of the situation said several western-based NHL teams are seeking to form a Pacific Division within the AHL, with affiliates closer to home.
The new division, which is likely to be approved by the AHL, would ideally begin play in the 2015-16 season. Los Angeles, Anaheim, Phoenix (soon to be Arizona) and San Jose could be included, along with western Canadian teams Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver.
There have been stories the past couple seasons detailing the western teams' desire to have affiliates closer to home.
