The American Premier Hockey League (formerly known as the NEHL and more recently the Union Hockey League), was founded in 2024. The league is a full contact semi-professional hockey league.
Line 20 ⟶ 14:
Despite occasional forfeits due to the substantial geographical distances between teams, the league had moderate success during the first portion of the season both as the UHL and the APHL. By April 2024, the Sun Prairie Killer Bees were suspended for the remainder of the season due to forfeiting repeated games. Several more teams suspended play during the late stages of the season, but a handful of teams remained. A championship game was played between the Toledo Mobsters and the Hudson Valley Vipers, with the Hudson Valley Vipers being crowned the inaugural season champions.
