  • The Federal Hockey League (FHL) is a professional ice hockey league with teams in the Northeastern United States. The FHL began operations in November 2010. Don Kirnan serves as the league's first commissioner. The league had a salary cap of $5,050 per week for the 2010-11 season. The roster is limited to 20 players for the first 6 games and 17 thereafter. During the 2010–11 season, the Broome County Barons relocated their operations to Cape Cod due to lack of fan support, and Rome Frenzy suspended operations mid-season. In February 2011, the FHL announced for the 2011–12 season they would add new teams in northern Vermont and Illinois. The Green Mountain Rock Crushers (later changed their name to the Vermont Wild) played at theGreen Mountain Arena in Morrisville, Vermont, and the Danville Dashers will play at David S. Palmer Arena in Danville, Illinois. In May 2011, the FHL announced an expansion team to Wayne, New Jersey, called the New Jersey Outlaws. In December 2011 the FHL announced the Delaware Federals would replace the Vermont Wild. They played their first game on December 16, 2011 against Cape Cod. In May 2012 it was announced that the Brooklyn Aviators were ceasing operations and that an expansion team was being added in Dayton, Ohio. The Dayton Demonz will play at the Hara Arena starting in the 2012-13 season. The Dayton Expansion Draft and the Brooklyn Player Dispersal Draft were both held on June 15. The Thousand Islands Privateers would change their name to the Watertown Privateers after having relocated the season prior from Alexandria Bay, New York. In July 2012 it was announced that the defending champion New Jersey Outlaws were relocating to Williamsport, PA, for the 2012-13 season. Rather than playing in a traditional ice arena, they played outside on a portable ice rink at Bowman Field, home to the minor league baseball team the Williamsport Crosscutters. This venture was unsuccesful as the team folded on January 21, 2013 only to be resurrected by the league as a travel team that will play four road games. The Cape Cod Bluefins had cancelled several games during December, and finally suspended operations on December 12, 2012. The league created a temporary fill in team called the "Blues" to fill in the dates and then relocated the franchise to Central New York where they became a road team. The league played two neutral site games during the 2013-14 season in Winston-Salem, NC and Connellsvile, PA.
