Checkers Placed In New West Division...


Recommended Posts

The fourth time in as many AHL seasons, the Checkers will have a new divisional home.

 

The Checkers have been placed in the AHL's new West Division with the Abbortsford Heat, Oklahoma City Barons, San Antonio Rampage, and Texas Stars...

 

Geographically, this makes no sense.

 

The Checkers and and the Abbortsford Heat are approximately 2,900 miles from each other making it extremely tough on the players travel wise.

 

As far as the other teams go...

 

The Checkers are 1,200 miles from San Antonio and Cedar Park and 1,000 miles from Oklahoma City.

 

The closest team in their division (Oklahoma City), can be reached in 17 hours by car.

    • Question to the posters on this thread because you are knowledgeable--I love watching and pull for the Canes, but I never played so I don't have the understanding I had when I played football then watched it.  Having said that, Do you think we are weak at Center?  I see the team to be pretty strong on the wings, promising defense, and weak at Goalie.  It would be ideal if the Canes had 1 more position to upgrade, not 2.  I don't think you can count on Anderson to play a full season and he is 35.  However, are we solid at Center in your view?
    • Couldn't agree more, Kooch is erratic and Freddy is fragile, maybe save the remaining cap space for a goalie stud at the deadline
    • There is one play that sold me-- it was around 2:38, I think.  It was 4th and 1 and the QB telegraphed and threw the ball out wide to TMac.  He had no blocking (the TE was very late) and four defenders collapsed on TMac behind the LOS. They seemed to know it was coming.  He got hit behind the LOS and battled through several hits to get three yards.  THAT play showed me his fire.
