Norfolk lost in OT....

BUT they won their first home game on Wednesday night. Just shows how much influence you have with your hockey watching decisions.

Yeah just along for the ride, you hear anything from Indy on seats yet?

Justin Taylor with a pair of goals in his Ft Wayne and season debut last night, now sits at 20th on the all-time ECHL scoring list. He could make it into the top-15 this season.

... you hear anything from Indy on seats yet?

Still waiting for SeatGeek to figger out what seats they sold to everybody. Hopefully they didn't double up, like happened to The JMCs early last season in Sioux City when Ticketmaster became the team's new partner.

An early peek at the ECHL Standings ...
• Savannah Ghost Pirates are surprisingly at the top of the League so far, 6-1-0-0 and on a 5-game win streak.
• Other Division Leaders are Norfolk Admirals (4-2-1-0), Toledo Walleye (5-1-1-0), and Wichita Thunder (6-2-0-0 on the strength of a 6-win streak).
• Honorable Mentions to the reigning (x3) champions Florida Everblades & the Ft. Wayne Komets, each with a 5-1-0-0 record as November play continues tonight in 4 cities.

The rest of the reading is left to your own curiosities.

If ONLY that was the sole condition for a hockey franchise's livelihood ...

An Admirals vs. Thunder weekend series is always the most confusing matchup in minor pro hockey.

Hahaha, you ever made it to a game in Fort Wayne?

Twice. If you look in a book of American idioms, the "sleepy little town" entry has a photo of Summit City. One of the reasons that Komets fans have to make their own fun.
