Believe it or not, I did not mean "know them" in the biblical sense either. I just think you'd get to know players better if you joined the booster club- they have lots of events with the players that the average fan doesn't have access to. And if you befriended a bunny, you would get a whole heap of 411 on a player that you may or may not have wanted to know about.

You could join the booster club. Or maybe even better, become friends with a puck bunny- then indirectly you'll get to know the players more than you might wish to.

I'm sure @hockeydoc could prescribe some medication so you would be totally relieved.

Stop with Combs playing favorites, especially with Jeffries and the Havoc. If that were so, the Havoc would be 56-0 every season, they wouldn't be the 5th most penalized team (in PIMs) this season, and they certainly would not have had clown refs assigned to officiate their games. Lots of forum members claim Mr Combs plays favorites against their respective teams, which shows that he doesn't. I'm not defending him- there ARE areas in this league needing improvement that he could work on such as officiating (cough, cough) and as mentioned above implementing at least a best-of-5 finals (if not the entire playoffs). The latter phrase being said, we all know the vagaries of ice availability in SPHL cities.

Just commenting on how the Huntsville sportscaster pronounced Peoria as "Pay-oria"- take that however you wish. I've not heard the city's name pronounced that way before.

The Havoc and Mayhem had the Rouillard and Szczurek for all 3 of their semifinals games. Wonder which ref clowns the league will pick for the finals circus.

The "Pay-oria" Rivermen??? A Freudian slip of the tongue perhaps?

CD- well and nicely done

And the angle of the dangle, the size of the ship, and the motion of the ocean

You won't, if both you and anyone else is doing - all hands are out of the way!

The moral of this lesson is: don't pee on your hands!

Seeing who they were, THAT'S the stat of the game!

"The biggest takeaway for the Ice Flyers is the position they enter into the summer. For the first time in three years, Harris is not looking for a new coach, or uncertain about the return of the current coach. Bes is coming back...." But how many of his players will?

There might be a lot of buying and selling going on- his expertise could be helpful.

And from the game sheet (via pointstreak) of that game (some familiar names still playing) and now assistant coach Kallechy was the goalie for the Havoc: Louisiana # NAME G A PTS +/- S PIM 1 Lindoff, Breton 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 Brown, Greg 0 0 0 -1 1 2 4 Byczynski, Clark 0 0 0 -1 4 2 5 Lyon, Tyler 0 0 0 0 2 0 6 Duplantis, Josh 0 0 0 0 0 4 7 McNeil, Shawn 0 0 0 -1 8 0 10 Carre, Marc Andre 0 0 0 -1 2 2 11 Cydell, Weston 1 0 1 +1 1 0 14 Boyer, Jeremy 0 0 0 +1 4 0 15 Robertson, Matt 0 2 2 +2 9 0 19 Miller, Matt 0 1 1 +1 10 2 20 Short, Robert 0 0 0 +2 8 0 26 Zubko, Cody 0 0 0 0 0 0 27 Foreman, Jordan 0 0 0 +1 1 0 28 Lawrance, Rob 0 0 0 0 2 0 35 Carlson, Dustin 0 0 0 0 0 0 74 Byczynski, Kirk 0 0 0 +2 5 6 81 Ofukany, Troy 1 0 1 0 5 0 Huntsville # NAME G A PTS +/- S PIM 1 Niedert, Nick 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 DAgostino, Paul 0 0 0 -1 0 0 4 Smyth, Matt J. 1 0 1 0 4 0 5 McClure, Lee 0 0 0 0 0 2 6 Fidler, Leland 0 0 0 -1 1 0 7 Stefan, Stuart 0 1 1 0 2 0 8 Cannata, Sam 0 0 0 -1 1 0 10 Boots, Ian 0 0 0 0 6 4 16 McGill, Aaron 0 0 0 -1 4 0 19 Fox, Justin 0 1 1 0 6 0 22 Lazorko, Nick 0 0 0 0 6 2 24 Gurtler, Mike 0 0 0 -1 4 0 26 Battaglia, Anthony 0 0 0 0 5 0 35 Kallechy, Jesse 0 0 0 0 0 0 44 Fulton, Corey 0 0 0 0 1 0 67 Baker, Bill 0 0 0 0 2 0 82 Cseter, Justin 0 0 0 0 2 0 GOALIES Louisiana NAME DEC Min SHOTS SAVES 35 Dustin Carlson WIN 110:20 44 43 1 Breton Lindoff (b) Huntsville NAME DEC Min SHOTS SAVES 35 Jesse Kallechy LOSS 111:20 62 60 1 Nick Niedert (b)

Did you overlook the previous posts?

But they'll always have Carver

Yep, turned around and going in the right direction now.

A little thing called $$$. 140 M to replace, 26 M to upgrade, per the video. And most of that at taxpayers' expense.

A "360" gets you right back where you started from. A "180" u-turn is what seems to have been accomplished.

The only thing left to make this a "perfect SPHL arena" is to make known the beer prices.
