  IIHF study: NHL hurting European Leagues - USATODAY.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
The International Ice Hockey Federation has released a study that concludes that increased NHL signings of Europeans are undermining the quality of European leagues and the European development system and could reduce the number of good prospects coming out of Europe.
"(But) obviously we have an interest in acting with the IIHF and the NHLPA to preserve the strength and depth of the European leagues because many NHL players begin their careers in those leagues," Daly said.
According to the IIHF, the study reviewed 1,200 European players who either signed with NHL teams or with a Canadian Hockey League team from 1997-2006.
