I am going to contribute to the Shooters Blog once a week to give you my view of the team on and off the ice...so make sure you come back and check it out!
This past weekend got me excited! Our attendance on Saturday against the Icemen was 747. The fans got to see a good game with us picking up a win 8 to 4. Saturday we had a promo for the local girl scouts. Saturday we also had John “Jurko” Jurkovic suit up and play. It was great seeing him on the ice, he had a hit, an assist, and even got a penalty. We are selling Jurko’s game worn jersey on Ebay.
On Sunday we still had 632 fans. Sunday we had a promo for the local boy scouts. Sunday we picked up a 7-2 win against Evansville. Joe Marshall had a great professional debut with 2 goals Saturday and 2 goals on Sunday.
This week we have a special game on New Year’s Day. Faceoff is at 3:50pm at the Midwest Training & Ice Center.
Other upcoming home games:
Saturday 1/3/08 – 8:15PM

Nice blog Darren...as I told you before, I'm impressed!!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait for the games this weekend!!
Yo Darren,
ReplyDeleteWhat do you believe helped increase the attendance numbers? Maybe the same could work for other teams in the AAHA??
Hey Seid,
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think about Chip Rossetti's refusal to let anyone know that the Detroit Dragons would not be playing their games in Evansville this weekend? He was repeatedly asked on the message boards but refused to respond. Kind of a poor way to treat your fans, don't you think? Really think this league can survive with fan relations like that?
