"National Hockey League (NHL) Teams to Scout Talent in USHL: A New Partnership. The NHL has announced a groundbreaking partnership with the United States Hockey League (USHL), a top-tier junior ice hockey league in the United States. Under this agreement, NHL teams will have increased access to scouts and coaches, allowing them to identify and recruit top young talent from across the USHL's 17 teams. This move is seen as a significant step in the NHL's efforts to strengthen its pipeline of future stars and compete with other top international leagues for the world's most talented players."
