Held back due to the paucity of jobs available in the Original Six days of the National Hockey League , he would star seven seasons in all in the minor league American Hockey League , mostly for the Springfield Indians . While with the Indians , White was instrumental in the players ' strikes which led to the prominence of agent Alan Eagleson and the creation of the National Hockey League Players Association . The Los Angeles Kings of the NHL acquired the rights to White in the 1967 NHL expansion , and White was the Kings ' best defenceman out of the gate , leading the team in scoring both full years he played for them . During the 1970 season , White was traded to the powerful Chicago Black Hawks , for whom he would play the remainder of his career .

Ligue Nord - Américaine de Hockey The Ligue Nord - Américaine de Hockey ( North American Hockey League ) ( LNAH ) was founded in 2004 and is a low - level professional league based in the Canadian province of Quebec . It was called the Quebec Semi - Pro Hockey League from 1996 until it turned pro in 2004 . It has no connection with the similarly named North American Hockey League ( NAHL ) , an American junior league for players under twenty . Teams in the LNAH compete for the Futura Cup , which has been awarded annually since 1997 . Unlike higher - level professional leagues , such as the American Hockey League or the ECHL , the LNAH is not known for its skill level . Its teams employ many enforcers and has a rather infamous reputation for on - ice antics that mostly include fisticuffs . The LNAH has the unofficial reputation as the world ' s toughest hockey league ; a New York Times article stated that the league averaged 3 . 2 fights a game during the 2010 - 2011 season , compared with 0 . 6 fights in the National Hockey League . Despite this reputation , many of the players are ex - NHL or ex - AHL players ; Patrick Cote , Michel Picard , Stephane Richer , Bobby Dollas , Guillaume Lefebvre , Garrett Burnett , Daniel Shank , Francois Leroux , Jeremy Stevenson , Eric Fichaud , Mario Roberge , David Gosselin , Jesse Belanger , Donald Brashear and Yves Racine . During the 2004 – 2005 NHL lockout , some NHL players played the entire season in the league , such as Sylvain Blouin , Sebastien Caron , Mathieu Biron , Marc - André Bergeron and Sebastien Charpentier . The league has a rule that stipulates that all players must either have come from Quebec , or played junior hockey in Quebec . Another unique aspect , compared to other minor pro leagues of North America , is the absence of a veteran limit rule , which allows teams to stock up on experienced players . The league is slowly trying to clean itself up ( for 2005 – 2006 , the roster limit went from 20 to 19 players , which for most teams meant one less enforcer ) , but this is no easy task for a league that has always been popular with the fans for its reputation of being the toughest league in the world . The LNAH Draft is held during the summer , including 15 rounds . Players too old for junior ice hockey may be drafted even if they were already drafted by an NHL team . Drafted players come from many leagues , including the Canadian Hockey League , American Hockey League , lower - level professional league , and the CIS .
