Thorold Blackhawks - GONE?!

[Stinkyp3t3]

Any idea what that team is worth, or, cost to purchase?

I know there was some controversy as this was the last year the "Blackhawks" name and logo were going to be allowed on the City of Thorold property and there was an expense to change things over. I got the impression at the time that the team was not looking forward to this process nor had they taken many (any?) steps to achieving it. So make sure you subtract that from your offer

The Thorold situation goes way beyond the crest on the jersey and logo.

Prior to the beginning of the season, one of the co-owners was suspended for the season by the league and the other owner got stuck with everything.

That is all that I am going to contribute to this thread as I will not name the source that give me this information on the ownership.

Someday, it will all come out and everyone will know the rest of the story.

I am guessing 200K and you could rename them the Thorold Knights.

On this note, hearing a lot of fans with the IceDogs out of town and the St. Catharines vs Thorold game cancelled tomorrow night a lot of fans are talking about going to the Brock playoff. Lots of ex OHL, WHL and QMJHL players as the Badgers take on Guelph. For those that haven't been it's great hockey. Game is 7 pm at the 4-pad.
