« It appears that the Trois-Rivieres Lions will survive and continue under new ownership, as a last-minute buyer came in to keep the Lions alive. It is unknown who the buyer is at this moment. With Newfoundland out of the picture, the playoff race in the North Division now sits at a three-team race for the final playoff spot between the Maine Mariners, Trois-Rivieres Lions, and Worcester Railers. An official announcement from the league should be coming very shortly. »
Great news! Here’s hoping the new ownership is decent.
Not sure if the last minute buyer is a real thing. I don’t remember the name of the guy, but I know that someone was already trying to buy the Lions for some time and the news last week was just because the paperwork wasn’t completed in time for the league deadline.
Unless that deal failed and someone completely different buy it last minutes, I think this was something in the works for a decently long time.
Sad to see the Growlers fold. Newfoundland deserves pro hockey but the travel must be rough.
Funny name, awesome logo
« Growlers ».
*snicker*
Lol that sounds and smells like PKP
gotta feel for Growlers players and fans, what exactly happens anyway when a team up and folds in the middle of a playoff? 🤔
Sucks I can’t see any pro hockey on my island anymore ☹️
Man sad for them.
The logo is insane I tried to buy a ball hat many times and it was always sold out.
damn Cole Caufield’s brother [Brock Caufield](https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/312247/brock-caufield), was on the Growlers
