(Tempe, Arizona) - The Central Hockey League (CHL) today announced the participating teams that will compete in the league’s 19th season beginning on Friday, October 15, 2010. Although some material matters still remain to be worked out with the International Hockey League (IHL), the CHL will welcome four teams from the IHL who will join 13 returning CHL teams for the 2010-11 season. The participating teams will compete in two conferences during the season. The four existing IHL markets will be the three-time defending Turner Cup Champion Fort Wayne Komets, the Bloomington PrairieThunder, the Dayton Gems and the Quad City Mallards. “The CHL and IHL are working on all the logistics of this groundbreaking association between our two great leagues,” said Michael Franke, IHL Chairman of the Board. “Everything is moving along well and we are very excited about the end result that could be formally announced soon. It has been a complete pleasure working with the entire Central Hockey League.”

Just as quickly the crowd of 5,119 at the Rushmore Plaza Civic Center went from a nervous anxiety to an excited frenzy as the Rush came back from a 3-0 deficit to win 4-3 and capture the Ray Miron President's Cup in double overtime. The Rapid City Rush, in only their second year of existence, showed their grit and "never-say-die" attitude tonight. Even when the chips were down and most of the arena was anticipating a Game 7 on Friday.
