Teemu Selänne is founding a junior league in California with other hockey influencers.
NHL legend Teemu Selänne is one of the founders of the new hockey league, says The Hockey News.
Selänne, Canadian NHL legend To Luc Robitaille and other puck influencers set up a junior league on the west coast of the United States.
Selänne is announced to be one of the founding members of the new series. Robitaille serves as an expert on the advisory board.
The Hockey News says that other hockey influencers and business experts are also involved in the project. Some of them have been involved in the NHL business.
The purpose of the new junior league is to fill the void on the hockey map in the California region, so that the promises there can continue to develop in their homelands, instead of moving to other parts of the United States or Canada.
Selänne and his partner tried to buy Helsinki Jokerit earlier this year with the aim of bringing it up to the taxi SM league, but they did not succeed in their plans.
