Forward Tristan King has been recalled to Dallas and has been assigned to Evansville. He will not be coming back, according to the Komets.
If you haven't heard, Komets PA announcer Larry Schmitt had all his equipment stolen. In an effort to help him out, I am holding an auction of a signed copy of Fort Wayne Sports History. I'll sign it to whomever you want and deliver it personally if you like (probably after the snowstorm). I'll also throw in a signed copy of Homecoming Game, and I can sign that to someone else if you like and deliver that as well. All you have to do is reply here, or send me an email at bsebring@news-sentinel.com.
Clinic details:
Shooting: (1) focus on quick release (2) master the “2” touch (3) breakaways
Stick handling: (1) toes drags (2) learn to “feel” the puck (white pucks will be used- this helps players to play by feel as opposed to looking at the puck!) (3) triangle work
Small Area Games - 3 on 3, breakaway relay, 1 on 1 battles
The Father of Komet hockey is gone.....somehow....nothing will be quite the same.
It goes without saying that without Ken Ullyot Komet hockey would never have survived to celebrate 62 years. He was a great supporter of ours over the past 24 years and things will never be quite the same.

From a Komets' press release:
The Komets announced Thursday that they have acquired forward Mike Embach and defenseman Nathan Martine in a trade with the Gwinnett Gladiators of the ECHL.
You can read about him here. The Komets are going to wear patches in his honor.
