As teams begin to make their final push for the remaining spots in the Kelly Cup Playoffs and the 37^th ECHL season nears its conclusion, I’d like to thank everyone for their professionalism and hard work this season! We all deal with the same ups and downs that our league can throw at us, day in and day out. Our standards set across the league are the best they’ve ever been and can only get better! If anyone has any suggestions on making any changes going into the 2025-26 season, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your divisional rep, so these ideas can be brought up to the league during our next meeting. During the season, the ECHL announced that it will be welcoming its 30^th franchise playing in Greensboro, NC at the start of the 2025-26 season, the team will be the Greensboro Gargoyles. Best of luck and safe travels for the rest of the regular season, and to those who make the playoffs, have fun and enjoy the ride! Looking forward to seeing everyone at the World Center Marriott in Orlando, FL!
