Great Montana Defection Correction
Ok, I recently posted some inaccurate information regarding the Helena Bighorns. While it was discussed that they would be relocated to Taylor, MI it appears the opted to remain in the great mountain state and merge with their Queen City compatriots. This decision was made after both Billings and Bozeman left the NAHL. This of course makes Bozeman look the bigger part of the problem that forced the Great Montana Defection of 2006. The Helena Bighorns revised team will play in the NORPAC hockey league. Perhaps this opens the doors for the Bozeman Blackhawks to play in the same league. The question remains as to where they may play, as the Valley's former ice garden/community centre has been converted into a giant beer fridge. That's solid community planning. Anyhow, here's the link to the Helena Independent's Article about the Bighorns:http://www.helenair.com/articles/2006/05/25/sports/b01052506_01.txt
The upside to all of this is the sweet jersey for the Queen City Cutthroats. I'm a huge fan. I believe this is the fly fisherman in me. Beware of the angry endangered trout with a hockey stick!
