When QC & Peoria announce similar cancellations of games hosting VC (same state regs), THEN the coincidence factor will be negated.

Might have been a good idea to give the fans this info, you know, when the games were postponed? But what do I know...

Hopefully the JMCs are the only hockey fans who will be totally screwed in this deal. Neither of us is gonna drive 460 miles round trip (again) to demand a refund of our $34.82.

You could drive the 460 miles to see the rescheduled game... if the Bobcats last that long.

Kerr should have known what it took to operate a team the right way (or at least had some conception thereof) from when he owned the Pilots back before Forgione the Fraud took the yoke and pointed the plane at the proverbial mountain.

So, assuming they actually made it to QC, anyone have predictions on tonight's game? I'll go first - QC 7, VC 1

0-0 tie, after both teams run out of shootout skaters who can actually carry the puck into the zone without losing it. Another first in SPHL history.

The ice plant springs an ammonia leak and the game is cancelled. It would be fitting.

Well, I'm confident that the Bobcats made the trip to Moline, because nobody ever called me back about my ticket refund.

Rumor has it that the Hat Tricks were concerned Atwell could drown at Palmer Arena in Danville when the B'cats return home next week. Better safe than sorry.

"recalled"
Hahahahahaha.
They "recalled" a guy who was scratched in a higher league?
They assigned his contract to the SPHL?

Atwell should have refused to return to the Hat Tricks, and signed on with the Bobcats' security team instead. Apparently a more lucrative job than actually playing for VC ... whenever they play ...
If you're a farm team for a Federal League side, then you should be playing senior hockey (Is the GLHL still around?), not in the SPHL.

What does this mean?
I don't know. They're mixing baseball jargon with European Socialist Kickball jargon on a hockey board...

But the poster got "you're" right, which has gotta count for SOMETHING these days.
They just unveiled their home jerseys at an elementary school appearance....unsure if they were also trying to recruit players

The team posted this on fb as a comment on (terrible) photos of the team practicing at Palmer Arena:
"Due to office staffing issues we are behind the 8 ball a bit so now we are working on remedying that. We hope to have a lot of recognizable logos in the rink this year. If anyone is looking for chances to work with us give us a call!"
They had all summer to staff their office. This is a total clown show.

Shenanigans like this is to be expected in the FHL but not so much in the SPHL.
