In a recent post, the Worcester Icecats were described as an expansion AHL
franchise. Aren't they the former Springfield Indians which were sold and
moved to Worcester -- and renamed? The true expansion team I thought was
the Springfield Falcons, owned by a former Indians officer and by
Wayne LaChance (Clarkson ~70, and owner of the Enfield Twin Rinks).
The Falcons now have two affiliations, the Whalers and ... I forget.
Just a small and very minute point for the dog days of summer.:-)
