Jessica (aka. digitalfrost) submitted a very good explanation about the entire minor league hockey system, including the junior leagues, on the grrrowlfan board. With her kindest permission, she has allowed us to re-print it here: The ECHL is generally accepted as the second tier, but whether or not we share our second tier status with the WCHL and/or the UHL has been the subject of long (and sometimes, shall we say, unpleasant) debates. Below us definitely is the CHL (Central Hockey League).

Parallel imports, which are sometimes referred to as "grey market" imports, are cross broder trade in a product, without the permission of the manufacturer or publisher. Parallel imports take place when there exists significant price differences for the same good in different markets. There is trade in parallel imports in a wide range of goods, including such items as pianos, automobiles, motorcycles, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, computers, cameras, Levi jeans, music CDs and ski equipment.

A - Skates are not always completely black as they are now being made in a few other colors. Some skates are a combination of black and other colors. When skates were mainly leather made they were actually a dark brown not black.

A - Your skate blades are very sharp and therefore very dangerous. You can cut yourself very badly with them. Be extremely careful in the handling of your skates both on and off the ice. Former NHL great Borje Salming once needed almost 300 stitches to his face after being stepped on by a skate and former goalie Clint Malarchuk had his jugular vein cut by a skate. There have also been instances of players' fingers being cut off when being skated over.

The major gases, nitrogen (N2), oxygen (O2), and argon (Ar), which together comprise about 99.8% of the atmosphere, do not absorb visible light, nor infrared light. If the atmosphere contained only those three gases, the radiation would go right through without any effect on the heating of the atmosphere or surface. That leaves it to the minor gases such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone, and others to absorb infrared light.

Every country has trade in parallel imports. Restrictions on parallel imports exist only for certain types of goods. For example, in the United States, parallel trade is not permited for some copyrighted goods, and regulatory authorities restrict parallel imports of pharmaceuticals. Many European countries have significant trade in pharmaceutical parallel imports, particularly within the EU itself, but also from outside the EU, including imports from the USA market to the EU.

Yes we do have insurers that will cover parallel imports from within the EU these are acceptable at normal terms. Japanese grey imports are also acceptable under the scheme, although certain conditions do apply, for example a new car replacement will not be offered if the vehicle is written off, and a courtesy car also may not be made available if your car needs to be repaired.

The Major-Minor option requires a BSc student to take at least one Science Major and one Minor. You may do a second or third Minor if your timetable permits you to do so. The second Minor or third Minor will also be recorded on transcripts if you have successfully completed the requirements.
