What episode was that?
ECHL Week is on twitter if you have that, Growlers, @ECHLWeek;

if you have or can get Youtube, Christiansen was interviewed because he's been the coach this season, much like what Newfoundland and Portland....

the clip you are looking for is the 18th, which this show, isn't doing it every week, the next new one will recap what just happened in Toledo

the link as is follows: ECHL Week

tbth, I wish more leagues would utilize a recap/review show like this, because it gives you, even if your franchise is new, a great insight into how the league and its teams interact and gives some fans insight on teams they may or may not see or know about.... most of us hockey vets pretty much know how the league works, you're aware of those franchises because you never knew if your franchise would sign a player off a team you don't ordinarily either see or have a working relationship aka the secondary affiliate as well as the listed primary affiliation.

I'd rebrand totally new name/everything then hold an event and take that big blowup Monarch head they're using currently to introduce the team and light it on fire. Invite the fans/City to toss Monarch jerseys on the pyre with proceeds going to charity (100 bucks for each jersey tossed or something). Give Max a "viking funeral" and start a entirely new chapter.

But's that's just me...

then why hasn't Boston bought Providence outright, Centrum?
As long as delware north has concessions at the dunk there is no need for the bruins to own a AHL team. having the Ability to yank a bruins affiliation gives the Jacobs leverage in negotiations at the dunk for future deals

there have been calls for Boston to buy the franchise outright or risk losing the affiliation

Hopefully Manchester gets things turned around, but as others have said they need to fully re brand and move away from anything Kings related.

People are always speculating on the PBruins clueless owner and the BBruins clueless owner feuding, but both sides make money hand over fist so all is good.

THERE is a Manchester fan group out there, much like how ever team has its social media presence, and the fan I have contacted is confirming the discussions over the transition of the Monarchs from the AHL to ECHL, is pretty much the gist of where the team is and how it's been perceived in the last three years

So some random fan from Manchester has confirmed what we've all known to be true for a couple seasons now?
I asked him flat out what he thought the issues were and that's what he stated in reply... knowing is it the Kings solely, or is it the transition, or is the ownership there presently

I always take those kind of statements from people on internet fan groups with a grain of salt. There are fans on the Royals facebook fan group who say stuff like "everybody who dropped their season tickets did if because XXX". That's obviously not true, since people drop for lots of reasons, and often for multiple reasons. People also say "everyone feels xxx", when it is really their group of ten friends who feel that way. The might bring it up to other people, but sometimes that person is a loudmouth, opinionated jerk, and so the other person doesn't disagree because they don't want to be bothered to have a big fight about it, and they say "yeah, Joe, your are right", just to shut him up. Anyone who actually disagrees with him is dismissed as an idiot or kissing up to ownership or something. I'm not saying their point of view is invalid or they don't have a point, just that one person who tries to speak for the whole group sometimes isn't correct.

I’ve more or less stayed away since the AHL team left.

I’ve gotten free tickets a couple of times and gone to check it out, each time slightly optimistic that I’d enjoy the experience.

I was team AHL or nothing like many, but it is what it is at this point. They’re not getting an AHL franchise.

The hockey product isn’t awful.

The atmosphere is. They continue to role out the same stale branding and packaging. It’s laughavle.

I had free tickets to today’s game. The place was a library.

Good local ownership is important for a team like the Monarchs the first thing the new owners did when they bought the team was cut costs and They did not seem to do anything to rebuild the fan base and corporate Sponsors that they lost New Owners: We Want to Revive Manchester Monarchs - Arena Digest The union leader took down the articles.
