The last team conditioned them to really bad hockey, after all.
I wonder if Delaware could relocate? I’ve always thought a team playing out of Morristown, NJ and the Mennen Arena would make sense for FPHL. Seems like it would be a good location and the right size at 2500.
So the Fed is returning to the Rostraver Ice Garden. The rink already has a team named "Thunder" playing there. They can share jerseys to save money.
AND you got a free T-shirt, too. Add the Danbury victory, and you scored The Hockey Fan Hat Trick!
I actually watched parts of this game on YouTube. The game had a very controversial ending when with 5 seconds remaining in regulation, the clock operator did not start the clock after a face-off. A few seconds later (officially with 2 seconds on the clock but more than 3 seconds had elapsed from the face-off), Carolina scored what appeared to be a tying goal. However, the goal was waived off (probably the correct call). The officials then decided to end the game and give Danbury the victory. IMO, the officials should have ruled to replay the final 5 seconds. I have no dog in this fight, but that was a pretty bad decision by the officials.The Hat Tricks kept the Big Mo' going on Saturday, beating the T-birds for the second consecutive night. Final score was Danbury 4 - Carolina 3, tying the FPHL Commissioner's Cup Finals series at 2 games apiece. The deciding game will be played @ Danbury Arena on Sunday night, and will be free-streamed on the Tricks' You Tube channel starting @ 5 PM Eastern Time.
The Fed has plenty more than that to make them look bad. The fans in attendance have already bought in to the product, and the perspectives of you along with a dozen other You Tube watchers will have zero influence on the overall approval ratings. The Fed will continue to do business as usual, and they will continue to draw a niche following for the sort of entertainment offered. Death, taxes, and low Single A hockey are ALL inevitable.
