It hasn't been an off year... Niagara has been garbage since they traded Tomissino and Thomas. My hats off to Icedog fans for still showing up. I seem to recall a couple years ago making a comment about how I figured Niagara's fan support wouldn't last if the Icedogs didnt improve (I'm sure I can find the post) after TDN was teasing about Niagara's fan support vs Sudbury while the Wolves were having a good season. Here in Sudbury, when the team sucks, people find other things to do. The Burgess thing up here pissed off a lot of people and the attendance has never really recovered. I'm really curious to see how much more the people of St Catherines will take. Four years of really bad hockey has to take its toll eventually.
