Tonight's Game vs. Allen Postponed

Tonight's Game vs. Allen Postponed

WICHITA, Kan. (Dec. 26) – The Wichita Thunder, ECHL affiliate of the NHL's San Jose Sharks, AHL's San Jose Barracuda and powered by Toyota, announced Friday in conjunction with the ECHL the postponement of tonight’s game against the Allen Americans due to a strike organized by the Pro Hockey Players Association. 

The union’s decision to force our players to stop working means that we have to postpone tonight’s game against Allen. We’re working to have a team on the ice for our next regularly scheduled game. 

To get important information about our last, best and final offer to players, which would immediately raise salaries by 20 percent and address other proposals that are priorities for our players and teams, please visit the ECHL website HERE.

Statement from the ECHL
“Unfortunately, union leaders deprived players of the opportunity to vote on our last, best, and final offer – an offer that would dramatically raise player salaries by 20 percent in the first year, boost the per-diem rate, guarantee more off days, and expand the top-of-the-line equipment available to players. We did everything possible to avoid this outcome, and hope that the union leadership will drop its unworkable scheduling demands, let the players vote on our offer, and make it possible for players to return to work.”
