Don't mean to make this "roller-hockey-l", BUT...
Chris Lerch listed the pre-season "Protected" and "Drafted" lists from the
Roller Hockey International teams. The final rosters consist of 14 players, as
the game is played with only 1 defenseman and 3 forwards. The Star-Tribune last
week listed the Minnesota entry (the Arctic Blast - I like it!) roster along
with some info.
To give you an idea: they play at the Target Center in Mpls, and tickets are
$6.50, $9.50, and $12.50, all for seats in the lower level of the arena. I
don't know the rules, but there is either no offsides, or a much more relaxed
version of the rule. They play 4 periods. Minnesota's first game was Monday
night and they beat the Atlanta Fire Ants (another fun name!) 23-3, so it's
obviously a rather wide-open game.
And here's the roster, with the one Chris posted appended for comparison:
