They just won the Kelly cup didn’t they?
Neato
I’ve never understood why they can’t/couldn’t make KC stick as a long term minor league affiliate; I’m assuming it’s all $$ related.
About two hours and a half hours from both Tampa and Miami.
I hope we don’t bring any young guys to a Florida who get a taste of the lifestyle, show up in St Louis a year or two later, and immediately don’t like it.
Are we going for the most affiliates of any team in history? Lol
That awesome as Everblades are my local team
Everblades are owned by a guy from Missouri (Hoffmann). Maybe that’s what led to this switch for them?
As a Floridian, I approve this. The Back-to-Back-to Back Kelly Cup Champions. I get to see them play a few times a year against the Jacksonville Icemen
Blues fan with old parents in Naples FL that I visit twice a year.
Blades games usually the highlight of our trip. Tons of fun, great hockey atmosphere.
Not sure if this means much for development, but they’re the big boys in the ECHL, so this is a good place to send the kids. Plus, everything closes at 9pm, so it keeps them off the street.
How does this work? Do the Blues get control of the guys on the team, do they move guys from the old affiliate to this one, or do the Blues just have their staff on board with the same team?
Who was our ECHL affiliate before this? I know we’ve partnered with the Thunderbirds in the AHL for several seasons now.
As a Solar Bears fan, this is devastating
They need to send Krug to the Everblades for a conditioning assignment.
