Is this normal scheduling down on the farm?

Rivermen play games tomorrow, Thursday AND Friday. Holy hell. I don't think I've ever seen a schedule where any hockey team plays games 3 days in a row.
Discuss the St. Louis Blues, the NHL, or whatever.

The Aces have Friday, Saturday Sunday series pretty often. Probably 4 or 5 times a season. That might be a quirk because of our location though, I'm not sure.glen a richter wrote:Rivermen play games tomorrow, Thursday AND Friday. Holy hell.

With an odd number of teams (29), there is at least one team not playing every Saturday....Worcester doesn't play 12/6, 12/27, and 2/7.Kyle1512 wrote:Peoria has a Wednesday - Thursday - Friday - Sunday, 4 in 5 days. Why they have Saturday off, I don't know. I know why, one or more of the opponents arena isn't available for this Saturday.
They do it because most minor league hockey teams teams draw like crap on the weekdays...bluenotekidd wrote:They do that alot in the Minor Leagues it seems. I know here in Central Hockey League territory, they have a much smaller operating budget, so they schedule quite a few 3 game weekend sets to minimize travel costs. I'm sure other small leagues do that for the same reason.
