According to their GM who posts on ITB, no. They have some smaller (stature, not obscurity) Jr. players, some D-1 and D-3 guys, only the top of the top from the MAHL, and some 3rd/4th liners from the ECHL invited in for a tryout to be held in September. Basically about the same level of the SPHL. Th...
