Looks like that signature is going to need some updating. 

This is very true!   Section 30, whenever you have time, would it be possible to get a new sig of the Moose with the champioship seasons on it?

10 more teams? You're an animal.

He's Section, not the Bear. I think you're mixing up your AHSylum members in your old age, Dan.

Retired Numbers


The Austin Mavericks have decided to officially retire the number 10. Robert "Bobby" Frenz was the captain of the Mavericks for 5 years, but he is best known for leading his Mavs to their first and only Kellogg Cup back in 1956. Frenz was awarded the Tschida Trophy that year for MAHL  MVP. After an 11 year career beginning with the Mavericks founding in 1950 and ending after the 1960 season, Frenz is still the only Maverick to have ever won the Tschida Trophy. The number 10 has been unofficially retired since 1960, with no player wearing it, but it is now official with the banner hanging in the rafters of Riverside Arena.

Section, two things. 

1. Your offseason highlights...Holy sh-t, I know that this is a fictional thing, but I think that this is a setup that could put the NCAA to shame (I'm not too familiar with IRL amateur hocket setups, outside of youth organizations having multiple teams).

2. The way the Moose and the Mavericks (and a lot of MAHL teams for that matter) have their banners lined up look so aesthetically pleasing. I can easily see how they're organized in the arena.
