Team changes

  • The Albany River Rats moved to Charlotte, NC due to major financial losses. They became the Charlotte Checkers.
  • The Lowell Devils relocated to Albany, NY due to changes in the lease with UMass Lowell making it "financially impossible" to stay. They retained the Devils nickname.
  • The dormant Edmonton Road Runners were reactivated and moved to Oklahoma City, OK as the sixth incarnation of the Edmonton Oilers affiliate. The team played as the Oklahoma City Barons, thus making it the first time the franchise has set up operations in the United States.
  • The Hartford Wolf Pack were renamed the Connecticut Whale on November 27, 2010.
