As much as the Armory appears to be a viable solution, the N of C building is the ideal location for the seniors. Parking at the armory can be a real problem whenever the is a function at the Middle School or at the Armory. Seniors would be left with no place to park within a reasonable distance to the building. On the other hand, the Knights building has its own parking lot. Access to the building would be much easier for seniors.
Why should I have to pay the cost of pacifing the cruchies who do not want the smart meters. The PUC is right in allowing CMP to charge them the extra cost of manually reading their mechanical meters monthly.
I don't think there is a US league that can showcase the talent we were shown by the Q. So many players we had the opportunity to watch ended up in the AHL & the NHL. Hopefully I am proven wrong. Most highly sought US talent end up in College D1.
As a season ticket holder from day one this is how I see it unfold. There is no question that Mark Just made a series of deadly mistakes in the operation of the team here. From poor management choices from the start to the poor choice in naming a successor to Clem Jodoin which turned off player who chose to play elsewhere and then the lack of advance homework in the announced move to Boisbriand. By then it was too late to try of make amends in an effort to revitialize support for the team. Marketing has been less than stellar and then to blame the local fans for not going to the games.
Now that I have pointed out Mark Just's misgivings, how about all those so-called "die hard hockey fans" who were the biggest critic yet never attended a game or would only attend if they were offered a free ticket. Always too expensive unless it was free. Let's face it, the blame for failure should be shouldered not only by the owner but also by all those locals who never offered an ounce of support. I will greatly miss this level of hockey and the opportunity to see future NHL stars play in my community.

Lewiston Armory is not the best choice

David Morse tragic accident
I will reserve any opinion until the entire story is told. THis is all too bizaar.
Smart meters

Replacement for the MAINEiacs
