| is anyone else besides me tired of seeing the same teams come into USBA? i dont mind the action i would just like to see some teams from out west come into town. the ECHL needs to re-align the format on how they do their league games. each team should play all teams in the league. maybe do like the MLB does and play all out division teams at least once at home and once on the road. jus wanna get thoughts and suggestions about this. |

| It would be nice if all that was possible but don't forget that this is AA minor league hockey. Travel expenses, ect. are the biggest factors. I agree that it would be nice, for example if Fresno and Stockton could have came here this year instead of us going out there again just like last year. Oh well. |

| I would love to see new teams also but with the budget of the ECHL dont see that happening. Flying and hotels get expensive. I would like to see the Cyclones travel south more then west tho. |

I wish Stockton would come here and play because apparently the game last year was amazing and I really want to see that in person.
I also would love for us to show our stuff against Alaska! |

I want a couple of games against Las Vegas in Vegas so I can have another excuse to go back out there.Why do some of the West teams never come East while we make the trip out there when we have more teams in the East? How about a West team coming out here for two games against Dayton then a short bus ride down to Cincinnati for two more here. They could even use the same lodging for all four games. |

| is it me, or does it seem like theres not enough competition for the 2 to 3 teams that run away from the pack each year out in the West? |

| Well I think if we went against the whole league Alaska wouldn't have a problem with anyone personally. |

Look at the advantage Alaska has.When we need to fill a roster we're competing with all these teams in all the levels of play.Alaska has 6 players from Alaska alone and my guess is they have 5 to 10 scouted out if needed. While we are bus tripping around,my guess is they use a plane because of the distance to the other West teams.My question-we've gone west three years now and has a west team ever played in Cincinnati? |

| I say bring Stockton here next season, b/c I heard our game against them last year was very exciting and it would be great to have that team come to Cincy fo us local fans can actually experience it. |

| the worst part is, if you look at Elmira's skd, they had/have South Carolina, Bakersfield, Columbia, Gwinnett, AND Texas! All these teams appear to be doing the Elmira, Reading, Trenton swing and we get 1 game with Charlotte, 2 with Miss and 2 with Augusta. I don't know how a brand new team can join the league and get all these games (esp the Texas and Bakersfield games)! |

| I agree, it does seem a little weird that a team on a comeback is getting games like this. |
