Well, the Nawfalk Admirals are the only AHL (well, ECHL then) team that I’ve seen in person. So I have that goin’ for me.
During the Wild-Oiler game Thursday night, GM Pat LaForge told the media that there would be a big announcement on their new AHL franchise early next week. Later on Sports Talk Radio, Jason Gregor leaked that Springfield is the likely location.
