The Nailers se-sign Jordan Martel.
A guy with an actual name?
 
When you have part-time media staff, the signing announcements get bundled.
Thank you. I was curious. Now I am going to have to look into who is putting out the Wheeling releases. It might be D J Abisalah, who is the play-by-play announcer and director of media relations or something like that.

DJ actually started at Atlantic Coast Radio, as an intern before the advent of MixLr, which handles the current radio in Portland

Olathe, KS City Council approves KC Mavericks’ owner Lamar Hunt Jr.’s new entertainment development, which includes a 5k seat arena. The Mavs will, most likely, stay put on the MO side of the metro. Rumor is LHJr will bring a NAHL3 team to KC (though KC would fit nicely in the USHL footprint).

Based on past history with that owner & that region's developer attempts to gain him as a tenant (e.g., KC Star-Lamar Hunt Jr. on the verge of bringing another hockey team to Kansas City area, KSHB-Hockey arena face-off), I do hope you are tempering your enthusiasm.

ETA: This news would be more appropriate for posting in the NAHL/NA3HL thread.

Considering the time Hunt Jr. bought the Topeka Pilots... and then punted on ever using the KC Scouts, I would be very skeptical about this.

Nailers trade Cal Kiefiuk to Tahoe for future considerations.
