Not sure why Kelowna was picked over MH and Brandon who will have better teams next year than the Rockets. Politics? Need a believable explanation.

They won the 2020 m-cup and built up a team, then 2020 tournament was canceled. They bid for 2023 m-cup with a strong team, including Cristall. Colton Dach and Szturc, but they were refused because CHL think their faulty isn't good enough for M-cup(which is enough for M-cup 3yrs ago)
So they're waiting and preparing this for a long time
They aren't goin anywhere this season. So it would make sense. And Kamloops should of gotten the 2020 one. Much stronger foundation, was 25 years after they last hosted. Kelowna didn't deserve it.
Hamilton all but confirming they’ll sell the farm this year to build for next season. “We will change a little bit now on the direction we are going in. We will be more focused on building the team for next year.”
Almost certainly. Don't think either comes back for their overager year.
Graham, Cicek and Stancl will probably be on the move too.
Will need to rack up a lot of picks to be able to turn the team into a contender for next season.
