I agree and know that well
The riders ride wherever they get invited and paid - seversl clubs at a time no matter how long the air trawl is.
and mostly the US icers are here because we can offer them a different direction, after their fit playing period, with qualifications (well - in my home town) and if for some reson they can't ice there - say a wages shutdown - they can still acrue points and certainly show 'us' a bit of edge.
I like the fact that they paid from that night's takings and go off and work the next morning and get over their bruises just like I do.
Hmphh - still on me soapbox
and am completely
So I'll leave it there
