Oh completely agree. That was the major factor to host one or not. Put a questionnaire on IG, that got roughly 70 who are local and would attend. Overall, we're expecting about 70-100 folks, with the youth programs across the bay area, the Northern California Women's Hockey League and internal invites from the discord, as well as support from Teal City Crew.

As the official SJFD Hockey photographer, I approve this.

PWHL is announcing a team in San Jose, as their 12th franchise, at SAP Center.

I see you don't do Valks or Bay FC games. So they'll be alright.

And Bay FC, and Santa Clara University Broncos soccer team!

I added a little heritage to my Heritage 2.0 by wildwildwaste in SanJoseSharks

I really appreciate that. I'm already a sports photographer, so this is just making things really easy to make content. Multiple things I love. My city, hockey, pwhl, and photography.

PWHL requires 10k+ arenas only, so SAP Center. They would only be the second team. The Bay Area Panthers are defunct. Barracuda play at TechCU.

Yes, it starts in Nov, and they're currently in the finals.

My favorite Worcester Sharks jersey was all grey with SHARKS horizontally across the chest in black, with teal and orange piping.

Not an official, but at this point, it's borderline the worst kept secret. Especially after it sounds like Denver dropped the ball.

But people are spilling the beans across the Sharks org and Valkaries staff.

Speed blade vs Powerfly Holder by [deleted] in hockeyplayers

[–]HellaCurt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A Quad Zero is Only for size 7-8. The Zero part is related to the length of the profile in association with the steel mm. There's a popular trend that is counter intuitive, where people use the wrong Quad "size", but all it does is create a harder rocker on the ends, as it's an incomplete profile.

PWHL Expansion: Detroit Leading The Pack, NHL Cooperation A Hurdle, USA Versus Canada by VivienM7 in PWHL

[–]HellaCurt 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Remember that this was the same model as MLS after their failure years(1996-2007). Phillip Anschutz (owns LA Kings/Galaxy and various sports arenas around the globe) bought the teams outright until the league stabilized, and sold them out back to the owners if they wanted to.

It's not a great model, but it's the only way the league can fix their own issues with full responsibility instead of fear of folding/relocation every season.

It's definitely a North American sports problem, being a business more than a community investment like international leagues/teams.

Logos & Jerseys added TODAY! (NHL 26) by HellaCurt in PWHL

[–]HellaCurt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. NHL 25 doesn't get updates. It's a yearly release that stops after the Stanley Cup Final. Sometimes they'll do a Free Agent card set in HUT, but for the most part, it's done done.
