Fargo Force....and FM-Jets?

Post by friendlyreminder »

With the expansion of the USHL team Fargo Force, are the NAHL FM-Jets staying in Fargo next season? I can't see Fargo being able to support both junior teams and if not where would the Jets be moving to?

From what i've heard, the jets will eventually move. I know the owner is from Woodbury and i think they are building a new arena there. So that's a good possibility for a location change.

For now they are planning on staying put. Somewhat out of stubbornness. The organization is pretty upset that another team was allowed to move in...That being said, they won't get much for fans over a USHL team so they won't be in the FM area for long.

My crystal ball says the Jets will move to Southern Minnesota. There was just an announcement that the ownership group of the SMN Express has been approved to move to Detroit. . . .

Think they'll keep the same staff? Team name, as far as, Jets? Should be interesting to see what happens. Been hearing all sorts of things going around about the face of the NAHL. Lets keep up with the gossip.

Lots of rumors about where the FM Jets will end up. I've heard Duluth, TRF ( :roll: ), and Southern MN as well.

Any updates on where the team is going to end up? I see the coaching staff has already been broken up, so who is going to take over the franchise?

NAHL Happenings?

Look for F-M to re-appear at the Super Rink.

Look for the AL Team to name a MN HS coach as their new head coach any day now.

Look for a new team in Owatonna, led by former Express coaches Cullen and Fink.
