World Industrial Hockey Classic Cancelled

Groom Upset over Cancellation
Kingfishers Greg Groom Meets with Press

Blacks Harbour, NB - The word spread quickly and when it hit Greg Groom, he "exploded." Groom said, "This was the perfect opportunity to showcase what some of the guys in the FIHL could do as a group against the Bonny River Ratz. Now it's gone. If Walsh had been on the ball, it would have happened. I mean, they had Taylor, Stevens, and pretty well their whole roster lined up to play. Sure, I'm pissed. "
Meanwhile, it was announced the FIHL season will kick off Sunday October 26 at 7:40 p.m. the Lepreau Pirates taking on the expansion Blackland Twisters. At 9:10 the aforementioned Ratz will play the reigning champs Kingfishers at 9:10 p.m. Some tickets are still available for both games but the public is reminded not to wait until the last minute and go away disappointed.
