First the NHL launched NHL Connect a free service that offers NHL fans the ability to easily create rich, multimedia personal profile pages and share interests and ideas with other users in the NHL community.

Now the Central Hockey League have partnered with industry leader ONEsite to launch ‘myCHLteam.com’, a new digital community designed to increase and enhance fan, player, team and league interaction.

The mission of ‘myCHLteam.com’ is to provide a community wired around the CHL and all member team’s content, housing an online location that creates a rich, digital multi-media interactive experience for all members of the CHL community to connect, share and socialize with each other.

Custom features of ‘myCHLteam.com’ include sub social networks for all 17 CHL members teams, a network-wide live chat system, and the ability for users to significantly modify the appearance of their individual site as they wish.

Makes you wonder when the AHL & ECHL is going to catch up with the times.
