A lot of people have this theory. What do you believe it is about the Elite League that stops British Development?
I guess my point is, if the Elite league ceased to be tomorrow, the general standard of British players would be NIHL standard. Surely it's the remit of the Junior leagues in this country, to have a plan in place to get British players up to Pool A standard, regardless of the standard of the top league in this country.
In Canada for Example, the OHL has NHL standard players playing in it, if the Junior system in this country is only producing NIHL standard players, how is the Elite league at fault for that?
