Coaches Corner
Your 2004-05 Icebears
Things are going well, The Ice Bears are undefeated at home (6-0). Another good win last night in Macon; And 10 minutes of sloppy hockey cost us a game in Huntsville Friday night. Things are going well, the only reason to make a change of any kind at this point would be to better the team. The question of the month is when is another Defensemen joining the team? It would have to be someone who could step right in and help the Ice Bears.
Questions? You can send questions for Coach Bermingham to answer here in the e-mail newsletter by sending them to askthecoach@knoxvilleicebears.com.
