If he did, I haven't heard or seen anything official about it.

Yeah like I said, I wasn't sure. I don't even remember where I heard that either

Brady Leovold can be removed from Wichita. He's not coming now.

That's weird. He just signed like last week.

[MrFrost]

No Dan McNeil. He retired

Brent Henley fights like such a girl. Ive been to 6 games, since he came to FW and he has never outright won a single fight. For someone his size, he should be destroying guys. He doesnt hit or enforce much of anything.

Not fighting much, but he's a much more complete player this year, playing more than 30 minutes a game. Right now he's the anchor of their defense, so taking five minutes off at a time isn't ideal right now. Plus, Sims is a defense first coach that isn't going to let him run around like a crazy person.

I understand and agree that defense wins championships. Example is the last game that I went to was this past Friday against Laredo. We lost 4-3 in OT. Henley was by far the biggest man on the ice(Laredo only had 2 guys 6ft or taller on their entire roster), all he did that game was take the puck behind the HOME net and reset. He lost the puck twice doing it too. He is a defenseman and needs to act like the enforcer that the Komets need. Molle brothers are too banged up right now. JMO.

Oh, I can dig it. I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm saying Sims isn't going to have it. He's completely abandoned the physical game.

I noticed that he has. When Fort Wayne won the 3 straight IHL titles, we had people who would throw down anytime, anywhere. Other teams knew that if they wanted to play rough, we would match them. Fort Wayne needs an enforcer 1 or 2 guys who just flat-out be physical. GO KOMETS!!!!!!

Lists cleared for the summer. Laredo's been removed from the list, and although it's all but a foregone conclusion that Evansville and Fort Wayne will be moving to the ECHL, I'm keeping them on there for now.
