It looks like CinWeekly (the as of late uber-popular free local Cincinnati newspaper publication that you've probably read or seen in stores) picked up on my request in a post I made recently and finally covered the return of the Cyclones. Picked up this week's edition as I was exiting Biggs tonight, and as I was scanning it I see the Cyclones logo and this paragraph article:
"Cool As Ice: Return of the Cyclones
The potential return of AHL hockey to the Cincinnati Gardens for 2006 stirred up some interest among fans last winter. Then in the spring, the ECHL quietly announced its return to US Bank Arena as the Cyclones once again rose from the ashes to schedule a 16th season. The AHL RailRaiders, meanwhile post-poned operations until at least next year. A lot of folks enjoy the nostalgic feel of The Gardens and the memories it holds of great minor league hockey teams past like the Mohawks, Wings, and Swords. Remember, though, that US Bank Arena was originally built for the city's only major league hockey team, the Stingers, and is still a fine building in which to watch a game. You can do that starting Oct. 20 when the Cyclones open their season against the Pensacola Ice Pilots. The regular season runs through April 6, 2007. (P.F. WILSON)" |

| I agree with that assesment, bags. Well-written article. And speaking of the Enquier, what's up with the Jr Cyclones actually getting an article in today's Sunday paper (be it a small one and the last one in the sports section)? It was about them hiring Mann as the broadcaster if you missed it. |
