The Greenville Swamp Rabbits, proud ECHL affiliate of the New York Rangers and the AHL’s Hartford Wolf Pack, will continue to play in the South Division as one of seven teams. Greenville will play 55 of their 72 regular season games against the South Division this season.
The new alignment is outlined below:
Eastern Conference | Western Conference | ||
North Division | South Division | Central Division | Mountain Division |
Adirondack Thunder | Atlanta Gladiators | Cincinnati Cyclones | Allen Americans |
Brampton Beast | Florida Everblades | Fort Wayne Komets | Colorado Eagles |

The South Division has gained the Jacksonville IceMen while also losing the Cincinnati Cyclones to the Central Division. Other teams moving divisions are the Kansas City Mavericks (Mountain to Central), the Tulsa Oilers (Central to Mountain), and the Wichita Thunder (Central to Mountain).
