Being from the North, I was quite surprised to learn that San Antonio had a hockey team. When most people think of San Antonio, they think of three things, Mexican culture, hot weather, and the prized Spurs. Rarely, however, is the San Antonio Rampage brought up. While the Rampage seems to be well supported amongst other American Hockey League team, they are currently second to last in the West Division of the AHL.
Like most professional, or semi-professional hockey teams in the US, the San Antonio Rampage’s roster is predominantly made up of international players, the majority of them hailing from Canada. With others from Scandinavia, the Rampage has many talented players, however they need to find their stride this season to improve their record. It has been said that while the Rampage has no official NHL farm team connection, the Rampage has many players with strong potential to play in the NHL. Currently, however, in none of the standout categories are any Rampage players included. The categories are, top goalies, top scorers, streaks, and leaders in all points combined. Unfortunately, the Rampage seem to be having an off season, but with high hopes and Trinity University student support, they can pull their reputation out of the gutter.
