    wow, that's awesome VV. I may take you up on your offer for box seats someday.

    I occasionally make my way out to that area and I love catching games in the ECHL, AHL, and of course the CHL, anytime I'm in a city that has a team.

    Best of luck.

    I'm proud to announce the news on this site, being a long time reader and poster... a new ECHL team is coming to San Francisco.

    Lots of work to do but we're planning on being up and running in the '12-13 season. The Old Cow Palace, old home of the San Jose Sharks, will be our home rink. Team coach and GM is my good friend Pat Curcio, ex assistant coach of the London Knights and Sault St. Marie Greyhounds of the OHL, and Utah Grizzlies of the AHL.

    Anyways, I just thought I'd share my good news with you guys. I have one more year left of schooling and have plans to move down there for a few years to learn the ropes and gain management experience. My father and I have plans to get involved in the NHL scene within the next 10-15 years. Heres hoping!

    Thanks everyone!

    We need to pre-sell 1,600 season tickets (though we're planning on around 4,000 average attendance so it shouldn't be tough) to secure a spot in the league next season so please help spread the word! If you have family or friends down around the area let em know! I'd appreciate it

    I would if I could. Congratulations once again and good luck with the dream and your ultimate goal. I'm looking forward to KILLER PUCK this year with you, haha. See you on Saturday in the draft room, Ben.

    Congrats VV, now it gives me another reason to go to San Francisco.
    You should contact Winnipeg Goldeyes regarding some marketing initiatives they use for baseball. They are the leading team for attendance in independent minor league baseball. Avg over 6000 in fan support. Good Luck
