I drove my ass off today to get to the upper part of Mississippi for the Mississippi Riverkings vs. Colorado Eagles playoff game tonight. More to come.

These are the only Wings I can get behind. Kalamazoo takes on Ft. Wayne in IHL playoff action. My seat is right in from of the off-ice officials, so we will see how well they (or I) do. Bootland seems to be a popular jersey, and I seem to remember him from the last time I [...] April 12th, 2009
The playoffs are here (well, mostly), and that means there are fans left without their favorite teams to cheer on. Fear not. You want play off action, you get playoff action. Welcome to the state by state guide to the playoffs. * Alabama Sorry, buy you are a [...] April 12th, 2009
We have already seen the demise of five ECHL teams (two while the season was being played), which shouldn’t surprise anyone who attends minor league hockey games. When you take a look at the ticket prices, then at the seats that need bodies in them, you can imagine that things are only going to [...] March 26th, 2009
The Calgary Flames are about to end a tradition in the Quad Cities: Hockey. The Flames are attempting to end their affiliation with the Quad City Flames in Moline, IL. From the Calgary Herald, dated March 12th: The Calgary Flames farm team in Quad Cities, Illinois is set to flicker into oblivion at the end of the [...] March 25th, 2009
The SPHL’s Twin City Cyclones (not to be confused with the ECHL Cincinnati Cyclones) are shutting down after being left behind in the playoff race. This isn’t exactly shocking, considering the attendance was the worst in the league. The fact they made it to the end of the season may be more shocking. Averaging 1.600 less [...] February 24th, 2009
And right after I leave town, look what happens. In what appears to be two separate incidents, the Bakersfield Condors have suspended their coach and assistant coach for an “internal matter,” and one of their players was arrested. First, the coaches. From the Bakersfield Californian: Condors coach Marty Raymond has been suspended for seven days and assistant [...] February 24th, 2009
If I were to do this in chronological order, I would be posting a Bakersfield Hockey-thon post first, But that is not how I roll. Well, occasionally, I have been known to roll that way, but not this time. Anyway… The first game of a back to back two game series between the [...] December 22nd, 2008
My West Coast Hockey Tour has hit it’s first scheduling hiccup, as the Fresno Falcons, part of the ECHL, folded today due to financial issues. This is the second team to fold mid-season in the ECHL (the Augusta Lynx being the first of the season). Fans of the Falcons thought they could save the [...] December 17th, 2008
How many hockey fights have I seen live this year? One, maybe two. Not like this. From tonight’s Colorado Eagles vs. Oklahoma City Blazers game. Drop puck, drop gloves, drop puck, drop gloves, drop puck, drop gloves. 69 penalty minutes. |
