Hockey League Closes Mid-Season – Team Goes On Drunken Binge

I’m not familiar with the Mid-Atlantic Hockey League; but from the tone of their we’re closing today for a better tomorrow letter on their website, I’ll probably never hear from them again.

They call themselves the Premier A League – ECHL is the Premier AA League – there does NOT appear to be an Premier AAA league before NHL.
