Okay ECHL- is Wheeling the only team in this fricking league!!
To the casual fan, would you come out on a Wednesday night to watch
the SAME team we played the last two home games? The teams in this league
are working to develope loyal fans and the schedule makers keep doing
the same thing. Remember last year- the chance of 8 straight Johnstown
games if we would have faced them in round one. How many straight weekends
did we have to drive up to Kalamazoo to play ONE game. If possible, we
need to have two weekday games against the same team followed by two
weekend games aginst the same team. How about Tuesday-Wednesday against
Kalamazoo in Cincinnati followed by two against Elmira on Friday-Saturday
in Elmira. Then the next week is reversed with us hosting the weekend
games.
I will be there tonight but if we weren't season ticket holders, I would
probably pass due to Wheeling again. |

| Same here. We are running out of games to turn in unused tickets. We will be late but at least the tickets will get used. |

| It is pretty stupid to have the same team in for 3 games in a row. As a die-hard Cyclones fan, I love the rivarly with Wheeling but after a while I hate seeing them over and over. I understand all the division games bu I think that there is a way to avoid a scheduling oddity like this |

| I agree it can get kind of annoying, but that's minor league hockey for you. I wonder if IHL fans ever get tired of seeing the same teams so much. Personally, I don't mind seeing Wheeling tonight as I've only seen a few games against them this seasons, by my count last time I've seen Kalamazoo play at US Bank 9 times. Looking forward to going to tonight's game, bringing a few people who will get their first hockey experience tonight. |

| Yes Gordon Bombay K'zoo has been here about 35 million times and we've been there that much it seems too. I dont go to games- alas no one in my family likes hockey except me but even listening to the games it gets annoying with the same teams. Hope that the people you are bringing have a great experience and will come to love hockey. |

| Thanks Cyclonesfan7180, most of them bailed tonight, but the few who did loved it. We sat in Section 122 with a good group of fans. |
