Judging from the highlights it looked like a rough game for Welinski

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Of course the only home game I'm going to no Ritchie or Theodore lol.

Any chance Kevin Roy plays?

Elsten said Sideroff is making his debut, and a total of 5 guys on ATOs will be in the line up. I'd bet Roy is one of those other 4.

They both were on the ice for warm ups. My guess is the five are Welinski, Kosilla, Cooper, Sideroff, and Roy. Neither O'Brien warmed up, nor did Bickel.

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Roy is starting the game!! Woooooo

I was mistaken. Bickel is in the lineup. I predict a fight with Samuels-Thomas.

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Kase has some much skill and speed Holy ****.

 

[HansH]

Both backup goalies got the start - Houser for Ontario and Hackett for the Gulls.

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Hackett (our goalie) keeps trying to scrap the reign goalie every scrum hahahah

Montour is a beast

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Mcgratten scored game winning goal and then proceeded to skate reign bench and blow his stick blade in their face leading to a unsportsmanlike penalty hahahahaha

Montour is a beast

Why? Haven't seen anything lately. Pointwise his season is very good but how is his overall performance?

Because he makes something happen everytime he touches the puck

AHL Attendance Figures

To nobody's surprise, San Diego loves their AHL hockey. The Gulls' average home game attendance was 8765, good for second in the entire AHL. And to think this number will likely increase with the playoffs beginning shortly...

Makes me curious to know just how lucrative this franchise purchase has been for the Samuelis. Perhaps their profits haven't yet offset the initial purchase price but they will in due time.

I wouldn't count on that. Playoff minor-league attendance usually takes a dive, especially in the first round, because of the lack of lead time of specific dates, which kills the group sales pretty badly - and minor-league teams don't have the draw despite uncertainty that the NHL teams do. At the mid-minors level, teams that are drawing 6k a night at the drop of a hat will have less than 2k show up for the first-round matchups. It's a thing.

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Im sure every playoff game will be sold out, that place was going nuts I loved it.

You did get a really good taste of what it can be like down here for sure -- the third period of the regular-season finale was quite possibly the loudest I have _ever_ heard that arena, and I started going to games there in 1996. I'm _hoping_ we manage to defy the conventional wisdom about playoff drop-offs in attendance, for sure

Just imagine both arenas if the Reign and Gulls both advance...

 

[Ducks Nation*]

Was louder than Honda center.... lol

 

[HansH]

Coyotes one step closer to placing an AHL affiliate in Tucson - announce conditional agreement to purchase Springfield (conditional upon league approval and a signed arena lease in Tucson).
