According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Barons_(1937%E2%80%931973)), the AHL Cleveland Barons sought entry into the NHL in the early 1950s but were turned down due to "purported financing irregularities". Suppose, however, these issues were overcome/smoothed out, and the NHL added a seventh franchise approximately sixty years ago? How might the history of the league and the game have evolved differently?
