  • 1993-94 East Coast Hockey League
    1993-94 ECHL Card Set for Hockey Blast Information Booklet Introduction 1993-94 was the sixth season of the East Coast Hockey League. Four expansion franchises (Charlotte, South Carolina, Huntington, and Roanoke) joined the league, increasing the number of teams to 19. The new franchise in Roanoke was made possible due to the relocation of the former Roanoke Valley Rampage to Huntsville, Alabama. Award winners that season were as follows: MVP: Joe Flanagan (Birmingham) – 54 G, 72 A, 126 Pts in 62 games Leading Scorer: Phil Berger (Greensboro) – 56 G, 83 A, 139 Pts in 68 games Rookie of the Year: Dan Gravelle (Greensboro) – 38 G, 66 A, 104 Pts in 58 games Defenseman of the Year: Tom Nemeth (Dayton) – 16 G, 82 A, 98 Pts in 66 games Goalie of the Year: Cory Cadden (Knoxville) – 26-8-4, 3.09 GAA, .898 SV% in 40 games Hockey history was made on the ice that season as Manon Rheaume and Erin Whitten, the first two female goaltenders in professional hockey, recorded their first wins. Whitten became the first to pick up a victory for Toledo on October 30, 1993, replacing an injured Alain Harvey at the beginning of the second period and stopping 15 of 19 shots in a 6-5 win over Dayton. Rheaume became the first female ECHL goalie to start and win a game on November 6, 1993 when she made 32 saves for Knoxville in a 9-6 victory over Johnstown. Knoxville captured its second Brabham Cup as regular season champions but were upset by Louisville in the first round of the playoffs, just as they were in 1990-91 when they finished first overall.

    ADVERTISEMENT NEW EASTERN EUROPE IS A COLLABORATIVE PROJECT BETWEEN THREE POLISH PARTNERS The City of Gdańsk www.gdansk.pl A city with over a thousand years of history, Gdańsk has been a melting pot of cultures and ethnic groups. The air of tolerance and wealth built on trade has enabled culture, science, and the Arts to flourish in the city for centuries. Today, Gdańsk remains a key meeting place and major tourist attraction in Poland. While the city boasts historic sites of enchanting beauty, it also has a major historic and social importance. In addition to its 1000-year history, the city is the place where the Second World War broke out as well as the birthplace of Solidarność, the Solidarity movement, which led to the fall of Communism in Central and Eastern Europe. The European Solidarity Centre www.ecs.gda.pl The European Solidarity Centre is a multifunctional institution combining scientific, cultural and educational activities with a modern museum and archive, which documents freedom movements in the modern history of Poland and Europe. The Centre was established in Gdańsk on November 8th 2007. Its new building was opened in 2014 on the anniversary of the August Accords signed in Gdańsk between the worker’s union “Solidarność” and communist authorities in 1980. The Centre is meant to be an agora, a space for people and ideas that build and develop a civic society, a meeting place for people who hold the world’s future dear. The mission of the Centre is to commemorate, maintain and popularise the heritage and message of the Solidarity movement and the anti-communist democratic op- position in Poland and throughout the world.
