Avs loss? What Avs loss? We're talking minor league hockey. Some short notes:
The new rage right now is changing your website design before the season starts. While NHL.com did it, so did the AHL. Check out the new look of www.theahl.com
The AHL is cutting players and sending them down to the lower minors. The ECHL, CHL, and UHL will be heating up soon.
Locally, the players for the Colorado Eagles and the Rocky Mountain Rage will be showing up soon. Rage camp is going to be at the Ice Centre at the Promenade in Westminster starting October 9th. The Eagles will be playing an intra squad game in Greeley at the Ice Haus on Oct. 11th. They are also opening 2 practices to the public at the Budweiser Events Center, Oct 9th and 10th.
Sadly, an original member of the Cincinnati Cyclones passed away. Tom Neziol, who was 39, died of a heart attack, in Burlington, Ontario.
So we don't end on a sad note, last night was also the start of the AHL regular season. The league plays more weekend games than weekday, so if you are nearby a team, get out and see a game.

...Why is the AHL site about 10x better than the NHL one?
See, here's what I think. I don't think the NHL feels they have to try. They just keep on changing things, with the thought that change is good. But change can be for the worse.
The AHL, just like most of the minors, have to work hard to get your attention. They do it for less money, and try to give back real value. They are used to making things better for fans, not just different.
