Just wait until you get as old as me 'n' Mrs. JMC. You'll change your tune. It's like the grankids-grandparents dynamic: They're very cute & well behaved when they arrive; but by the time you reach the mid-Period 1 TV time out, you'll want to send them all back home to their parents.... Anyway, I know this is late, but the early morning games for the school kids is one of the things I love the most about the ECHL. ...
Not sure what age you and Mrs. JMC are, but I am no spring chicken myself. I love the idea of the morning game for the kids. Taking one to that game is not on my radar for many years to come unless my nieces and nephew show interest. I do like the idea of going to a game early in the day, but 1:00 is early enough for me. (I worked midnight shift too many years to not sleep in.)Just wait until you get as old as me 'n' Mrs. JMC. You'll change your tune.

We are both "retirement age" and taking advantage of those privileges. But since my fall/winter/spring hobby is hockey road trips involving multiple stops (with my co-pilot enjoying the scenery between her naps), I occasionally end up having to schedule a daytime game to maximize our hockey watching on a trip. While we each understand the value to the hockey markets of catering to school groups, the "atmosphere" at such games is a cross between a Taylor Swift concert & a post-Stanley Cup winner street riot.Not sure what age you and Mrs. JMC are, but I am no spring chicken myself.

Erie Otters, and my ears are still ringing 10 months later.Didn’t you do one for ahl hershey and say it was really loud?
It'll take three months alone just to reapply all of those playing surface sponsor ads.FW Komets getting a new ice plant in the off-season, it's expected to last 20-30 years. The team will spend at least the first two weeks of next season on the road.
ECHL: Ryan Smith Suspended By Adirondack Thunder
Armand Klisivitch December 8, 2024
The Adirondack Thunder have announced that they’ve suspended forward Ryan Smith. It is very likely that Smith could be headed overseas, as this is the normal procedure taken by teams when players go overseas. Smith had six goals and six assists for 12 points in 18 games this season. ...
This is a massive blow to Adirondack as they lose their longest-tenured player in Ryan Smith, who has spent the last four years with the Thunder, where he’s put up 60 goals and 71 assists for 131 points and is coming (off) a career year that saw him put up 27 goals and 23 assists for 50 points in 69 games. ...

So the Flo schedule indicates.This on Flo hockey live?
Thread Hog!Not trying to turn this into the Wheeling Nailers thread (especially since I am too lazy to do so, and probably would be the only one interested in it), but the Wheeling Nailers will be short three defensemen from what I can see for Friday's contest against Reading. ...
Like I said. I am too lazy to start a thread just for the Nailers. That would require me paying attention too much especially with work being in flux right now.Thread Hog!
