The defensive vets are coming back.
This has to increase the odds that Vinc plays out his 2 year deal.

Judging by their attendance I'm not sure anyone who wasn't on the team even knew they existed. I saw a couple of their games last year and I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't more butts on the players' benches than in the stands.

blah blah blah
The Facebook NLL post announcing it had several people talking about not knowing they existed, then others saying they lived in the ares and saying no advertising was done at all by the owners. No link between the team name and geographical area of the team had people saying they knew they existed but not where they were even from.

Soooo.....where were they from? The only city I'd think of with "Panther City" would be Charlotte.....cuz they have the Carolina Panthers.

Before they announced they were folding there was speculation they were going to be moving to Charlotte, but now that they're dispersing their players that seems dead in the water.
I mean, the Rush returning would be great but Katz and the Oilers made sure to run them off the first time.

With the announcement of the folding of Panther City Lacrosse Club, we look ahead to how we got here and what to expect in the dispersal draft process.

Eddy covered the why the relocation to Charlotte didn't happen. It was basically way too short a timeframe to get a front office and ticket sales going before the start of the 2024-25 season.
The Long Island to Ottawa relocation was announced in February, for instance.

With a stacked roster, the Bandits continue to kick player acquisition assets down the road.

Their first two signings were two young local products.
