WHA, you mean? Yes, you can do that. Howe's in Houston from the 1973 to the 1976 start.

The WHA! That was it.

can this league be created through historic?

I have created a few starts in the 1970s and seen the WHA marked as inactive.

Yes, it's fully playable. But the WHA ran from 1972-79, so you need to in those years.

Ha ha, I started a league in 1975 and all is as advertised. Thanks for the correction. My memory is fading.
:-)

Which Western Hockey League? There have been three. The modern one has already been playable.

No immediate plans to make it playable, that'll depend on when playable minor leagues get added to historical mode.

I could always do a modern day custom Western Hockey League. I would like too do the season where they had interlocking games with the AHL(probably because they were down to 5 teams at the time).


One of the reasons for the big NHL expansion of 1967 was because they(NHL) were fearful that the WHL would become a competing league.
