The Ice Bears Players Need YOU!

The President's Cup, the league's leading scorers, the top attendance figures in the Southern Professional Hockey League and even the best run organization in southern hockey all mean little to nothing now.

The regular season is merely a chance to set the stage and provide rankings and match-ups going into to post-season. Why ? Because now, it's play-off time. A time when players elevate their game and rise to the occasion. Because any knowledgeable fan, player or anyone associated with the game know that how an athlete performs in the playoffs will define them as a player.

On the flip side, the players will need you..... the loyal fans who have supported us all year long through thick and thin, fair and stormy weather and even a less than desirable losing streak leading into the post-season. It is now that we, the players and the Knoxville IceBears organization need you the most. We need you to do as you have done all season and multiply it as much as you can and in turn you will be treated to the most exciting, intense and entertaining professional sporting time of the year....... hockey play-offs.

Everything we have accomplished as a family to this point; as players, staff and fans together will all be forgotten unless we take a stand right now and raise each other up to the top of our game. In the words of team captain and veteran play-off performer Todd MacIsaac, "you may never, ever get another chance to do something special like this again." That about sums it up I'd say...... we'll see you all at the Knoxville Civic Coliseum armed and ready to chase down the Southern Professional Hockey League Championship.......

Go IceBears!

Mike Craigen
