The Topeka Roadrunners kicked off the season with a win over the Alexandria Blizzard, 6-4 at the NAHL Showcase in Blaine, MN. As most of you dedicated Roadrunner fans know, the Topeka squad won the NAHL showcase 2 seasons ago.
The 'Runners will play the Motor City Metal Jackets today at 1:30 PM.

GOOD NEWS -
Topeka is hosting the 2011 Robertson Cup Championship. What does this mean for us Roadrunner fans?
Well, Topeka could lose all of their regular season games and still compete in the championship tournament. The host site always gets an automatic entry in to the Robertson cup championship tournament. :cool:
-
'Runners beat Motor City, 4-0!!
2 more wins to go!
The Topeka Roadrunners will face the Alaska Avalanche at 10:00 AM, tomorrow morning.

WTF happened to Topeka's CHL team, the Scarecrows? I always though that was a sweet name and their unis were pretty BA as well.

IIRC they went USHL for one year and then folded.

powercatmiller,
Do you often opine for the days when we had a crazy bitch owner that would give away wal-mart gift cards?
How about year 2 when we had that fat, drunk, semi-Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) guy that would scream "ARE YOU READY FOR SOME PLAYOFF HOCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKEYYYYYYYYYYY?"

I went for the Roadrunner dog last Friday. My bad person ran for the hill Saturday morning
-
Hill goes for a Hatty Friday night and Wichita Falls gives him the 3rd star. I dont think they like their former teammate
-
Wich Falls sucks ass. Hate them so much.

Amarillo this weekend, Handled them pretty easily in KC except for the big dude that looks like Antoine from Duece Bigalow

I believe we played them in Topeka. Corpus Christi was in Overland Park.
I think.
Looking forward to the Bandits next weekend. Hate those motherfuckers.
-
Where do they play in OP? And why do they play in OP? TIA.
-
Ahh yes you are correct well we handled Amarillo in Topeka easily also, and they played at Pepsi Ice around 135th and Quivera. They practice there also when there is no ice available in Topeka, as the Expo is a Multi Purpose venue we do not have permanent ice. Also this is the dude I was referring to from Corpus Christi(https://goemaw.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.pointstreak.com%2Fphotos%2Fp4195334.jpg&hash=7d50607848f25b448c102b503a5c94da76ec8b40)
-
Damn, that kinda sucks that they don't have a permanent place to play. The Thunders plays @ IBA, but I guess they just work the schedule around the concerts and stuff. They did play their preseason games @ the Wichita Ice Center though.
-
There is a "campaign" to get a multi rink building built in Topeka but everytime the city commits to it they back out before a vote takes place.

-
How many people go to those games? Our Ice Center only holds like 1000 spectators, so it's not exactly usable for actual games. Guess they had like 900 at the preseason games. Hell, they sold out the first few games they played at IBA, but the gave away an assload of tickets. Think the first game was actually free, you just had to get tickets ahead of time or wait in line forever at the gate before the game...

Last year there was 7,777 at a game that broke the league attendance record but usually low 2,000's
-
Yeah, the Thunder really struggled with attendance prior to the move to IBA. They have'nt been worth a crap in years and attendance just gradually died off. I think the newness of the arena will keep attendance up for a while but we really need to start winning more games soon. Back when they were good, they routinely filled the coliseum pretty well with a very active crowd, it would be glorious to see that kind of team in the new digs...
-
Runners win 6-3 over the hated St. Louis Bandits. The Roadrunners had 2 shorties in the 3rd. I also saw a guy get hit in the head with a puck, he was bleeding pretty good.
-
"If you get hit with a flying puck please find the nearest usher"
BTW gonna be some fighting tonight, plus love little Rambo's intensity last night, all 5'7 size 5 1/2 shoe wearing of him went after Qaukenbush who is 6'5 230
-
Can't stand him, can't stand the Bandits. They flop, take dives, and pull crap like they did last night (tripping the goalie). eff 'em.
-
fuuuuuuuuu
Saturday sucked.
-
Yes it did, did love the "fans" who were booing St.Louis 3rd goal, pretty sure if it hit the bottom of the crossbar it had to have crossed the line. Springy next hopefully we can bring home 4 points.
-
Also heard a rumor, Dodge City and Kansas City very well could have teams next year.
Im assuming there would be a new Central Division.
Springfield
St. Louis
Topeka
Kansas City/Olathe/Lenexa/Overland Park/KCK/Grandview
Dodge City
-
That'd be swell. Where would the kc team play?
-
I would assume Pepsi Ice or the Ice Sports Arena, but probably Sprint Center

i call bullshit. sources!?

Well the boys were going to be allowed to spend the off week with their families if they swept Springfield, looks like it will be stairs and spinner classes next week.
-
Pffffft.

Don't know what the word around the NAHL is but rumor is several more CHL teams (especially those from the southern part of the league) may be moving to the NAHL. Seems player costs are causing alot of them to lose money and the increased costs of travel that was made worse this season by its merger with the IHL has kinda forced their hand.
Could be interesting the next few years to see how it all plays out, but it certainly looks like the CHL is becoming more of northern league while the NAHL is treading more southward.

Went to the Mavericks-Thunder game in Independence a couple weeks ago, the Thunder goalie let a puck traveling at less than 1 mph go through his legs (after hitting his skate and stick a couple times too)...it was quite embarrassing to be from the state of KS at that time. :(

Was at this game as well. :facepalm: x1000. Needless to say he was left of the Thunders playoff roster.
