You omitted the most important news out of the BoG Summer Meetings ...

Utah Grizzlies’ Chief Executive Officer Kevin Bruder was re-elected as Chairman of the Board for the fourth consecutive season.

And your player roster "mirror" is a bit foggy: While the AHL has a limit on dressed players (18 skaters/2 goalies), the NHL uses 18/2 as a lower limit & allows up to a 23-man active roster. The Bridgeport Islanders posted an article on this topic early in June.

for those who remember the Manchester Monarchs in their final 5 seasons of ECHL hockey after the swap of franchises..... no attempts have been made and there is no push to bring pro hockey back to SNHU Arena and all attempts by prospective ownerships and the city of Manchester have gone unheeded to the degree that any hockey exhibition outside of the NCAA Tournament are financially too great.... the arena has basically rejected any such proposals...citing finances as the main reason as to why the dissolution of the Monarchs happened in 2019.

when you replaced last year's thread with the current thread otherwise, why title it 2024/2025 if the mascot/QO's are 2023/2024, then if this is a new calendar year once the Kelly Cup chase ends is when this thread was created

Two distinct topics based on seasons, no intention to replace the older thread (for history & nostalgia), if news ain't worthy of posting in its season then it an't worth posting anywhere else.
