I've heard from a few PEI hockey fans that the arena in Charlottetown seems to be part of the problem. Never actually been there myself but I've never heard anyone say anything good about it.
still 7 days left.....I have a feeling something is in the works and they might stay
i asked some of the league personnel that i know, and they said there was absolutely no plans to move a team before next season. if no owner is found, the league will buy the team and try to find a buyer to keep it in PEI.
Its obvious they want Savard gone. Knowing the league will pay up, i dont know why Savard would try to find a new owner...local or not. He will just take the money from the league and run. He will become personna non grata in PEI If no local owners are found i expect them to move after next season.
So perhaps i get to keep my house after all....
It seemed fine for a Q rink last time I was there, granted all I did was walk in to the dressing room, get my gear on, go on the ice, walk back to the dressing room, walk out of the rink
Seemed more like a CIS rink but I've been in way worse. One that comes to mind was Centre Henry-Leonard (Baie-Comeau). Even the ice in Baie-Comeau is choppy as hell, it was somewhere between a pond & a local rink that seats 106 granted that's 6-7 years ago and it was near the end of the winter
I was referring to the arena as it appeals to fans, since they're the ones paying to go watch the Rocket. I know some people were hoping they'd move to Summerside, mainly because of their much nicer and newer arena.
It's obvious you have a bias twords them...sad part is if PEI moves they will probably replace a ton of personel....which is too bad because they have a good staff and very good scouting staff
he was good. Not his teams best player (Janes), but certainly good. He has the tools to play at the next level, and seemed to play very well within the team system, played the point on the power play, and did everything that was asked of him. He was a leader on the ice for that team. Valley was a very well coached team, and he definetly progressed this year.
According to 1 source, Brisebois would be a top-6 pick in this draft.
