The National Hockey League has announced potential expansion plans and the tiny nation of Fernbrook Resort has declared themselves NHL ready.

Wilbur Clorox, Minister of Sport and Bleach for Fernbrook Resort

Said the Minister for Sport and Bleach Wilbur Clorox, "I really love baseball, I never miss a game… and having a local team to root for would be great. You can only watch so much Mexican D-League baseball…"

When it was pointed out that the NHL was a professional ice hockey league the Minister replied, "…oh …uh… you mean that sport played by Americans? …the one with the touchbacks?"

After a brief explanation of the rough and tumble game and it’s Canadian popularity Clorox laughed and said, "I thought those seal herding Canadians only played non violent games… like hopscotch… and tetherball. But if nowhere villages like Tar-on-toe and Mon-real can have a professional sports franchise then we’re a shoo-in!"

And the name of the new Fernbrook Resort ice hockey team?

The Lord Mayor of Fernbrook Resort, Doc Ballard, answered this query.

"The Fernbrook Flyers," he said.

When it was pointed out that the NHL already had a team with the Flyers moniker, based in Philadelphia, His Worship barked angrily, "You just made my list Philadelphia… right after Millgrove. Once we’re done with Millgrove we’re coming for you…"



Gary Bettman

The head of the National Hockey League, Gary Bettman was contacted for a response but he declined to comment on the tiny nation’s chances on being awarded a team as, "it may taint the process."
