“We are very excited to bring the ECHL’s signature event to Wichita and the Thunder fans,” said ECHL Commissioner Ryan Crelin. “This showcase is more than just an opportunity to highlight our players, but also recognize the history of hockey and our league, and celebrate the Thunder’s impact on the community of Wichita.”

The annual midseason showcase is attended by representatives from the National Hockey League and the American Hockey League. It will be Wichita’s first time hosting the event, which is expected to generate more than $1 million in economic impact."
