I was at Islanders Iceworks today for practice and I noticed an interesting flyer. It was for tryouts regarding Long Island’s newest hockey team: the Long Island 495ers. (click here for thier website)No... Not NHL, AHL, ECHL or even major junior ice hockey. Rather, professional inline roller hockey.
The 495ers will play in the PIHA or Professional Inline Hockey Association. According to their website, the “PIHA features close to forty professional teams and close over thirty minor teams throughout the United States. A regular season consists of sixteen home games and sixteen away games.”
The 495ers will play out of Skate Safe America in Old Bethpage, NY.
Very catchy name. I like it. Can’t wait to see the jerseys.
