Hey RuZZia - Cut Your Losses and Go Home.
Ben Guite left the Maine Mariners to take the head coaching job at Division III Bowdoin. Probably is making more money now.

So Reading looks to be on their way to the cellar. Their Head coach and almost all their ECHL veteran core walked. The players they have signed were there 3rd and 2nd liners. The club has brought back their assistant coach back as head coach. Unless the flyers send some decent prospects their way. I don't see Reading being in their usual competitive form this upcoming season.

Update on Reading. They still haven't made any major splashes in the free agent market. ECHL website has not covered any of there of season moves so far. If Reading is trying to fly under the radar this offseason the are doing a hell of a job. Time will tell what kind of form they will start the season with.
depends on what the Royals release themselves.....the team just released their promotional schedule today.... you might need a dedicated person to compile them...
