PRINCETON, N.J. - The ECHL announced on Thursday that the web sites of the Wheeling Nailers (Wheelingnailers.com) and the Idaho Steelheads (IdahoSteelheads.com) have been selected as the recipients of the ECHL Web Site of the Year Award for 2006-07.
The ECHL team web sites were reviewed by Rich Libero, who is in his eighth year as Vice President of Editorial & Production for NHL.com, the official web site of the National Hockey League.
Wheeling, the ECHL Affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins finished ahead of the Augusta Lynx (AugustaLynx.com) and the Columbia Inferno (ColumbiaInferno.com) in the American Conference while Idaho finished ahead of the Stockton Thunder (StocktonThunder.com) and the Alaska Aces (AlaskaAces.com) in the National Conference.
"Wheeling has a smartly-designed compact site with lots of content, a fan account management area and local news links," said Libero. "The multimedia section is well organized and chat rooms are available during games."
