What they’re saying about the Wolves

It’s beginning to sink in that the Calder Cup won’t be ours for the next 12 months. That’s a bummer, but only because our guys pushed themselves to the breaking point (and sometimes beyond) in their efforts to be the last team standing.

For example:

While not everybody suffered internal injuries during the postseason run (thankfully), we are equally grateful to everyone on our team — from head coach Rocky Thompson all the way to assistant equipment managers Eric Rivard and Tyler Carpenter — for dedicating themselves to the pursuit from Day 1 all the way to June 8.

We couldn’t help but notice that the media also appreciated our team’s efforts. Here are some links to stories about our team.
