Google the writer's name and the word "hockey". That will tell you all you need to know about that article.

Throwing fec... um, darts at the wall and hoping it'll stick is the writer's philosophy. "Yeah, these teams went down to the NAHL, so certainly these other teams should consider it! Yeah, that's journalism!"

To put it nicely and plainly, it is a writer and website that is unreliable. I would say look up his role in the USACHL debacle, but his involvement was entirely deleted once his reputation started going further down the drain.

Somehow or another I think that the Hunts-who own Kansas City-can weather this lock down storm.

What a Bulls**t article especially when he began throw politics into the mix. We have enough political stress on a daily basis we don't need it in added into hockey coverage because he's looking to throw s*** against the wall to see what sticks.
So yeah what @210 and @Barclay Donaldson said

General rule to follow with online "articles."
If it's not a reliable source of information (THN or a newspaper/TV/radio station) and/or if nobody is quoted in the story - whether directly or indirectly - it's likely message board speculation posing as news.

General Rule #2: If the title has a question mark in it, there oughta be a reader poll involved to at least make it interesting.

His tweet doesn’t point to anything official all it’s does is confirm what people like @210 have been saying. That there are Owners interested in a potential Manchester expansion team.

No, he didn't, as there was nothing to clarify. He added a second piece of related information.
which means absolutely nothing, because you need both to survive or in this case restart a franchise...... when was the last time the ECHL held an update about Manchester other than terminating the original franchise in 2019, Darryl..... it is highly doubtful or downright illegal to talk league business outside of league parameters, much less an application process
again, nothing has changed on Manchester until there's a credible ownership group, otherwise it's a non-starter...... even Crelin has admitted that to a fault

What does any of that have to do with what I posted or Divver tweeted?

All divver said was he has heard of interest In starting a expansion team in Manchester. He didn’t say a team will begin play in 2021 with a bruins affiliation like you think he did.
