So I'm just going to show the following clips from two seperate games in the past week with no commentary.
That was Toledo Walleye coach Nick Vitucci. After his stick, water bottle, and clipboard toss, fans followed with empty cups and two octopi (the Walleye are a Detroit Red Wings affiliate). Apparently, the octopus twirl is not banned in the ECHL.
Vitucci was fined and suspended one game. Oh, and it was NASCAR Night at the arena which explains the jerseys.
Speaking of NASCAR, did you see the fire on the track at this year's Daytona 500?
During a caution lap, Juan Pablo Montoya hit the back of a jet dryer being used to dry the track. It exploded and the jet engine fuel caught on fire. No one was hurt, but the race was halted for two hours.
Back to ECHL.
Colorado Eagles' Coach Chris Stewart "surrended" to the Referee, Curtis Marouelli.
Apparently, he felt the officiating was bad. This came on a night when the ECHL announced that Colorado would host the 2013 ECHL All Star Game.
Again, I offer no comments.
I've got to get ready for work.
The Gladiators are hosting the South Carolina Stingrays in a very crucial divisional showdown. South Carolina currently has the top spot in the division, by one point over the Glads.
I have included links to ECHL standings and Gladiator information on the blog as well as they too begin their playoff push. I'll hopefully do an entry on the ECHL soon.
