Komet Hockey. It's where Eddie Long played the game and Bob Chase has called games since 1953. Where you saw Len Thornson walk in and score to force overtime in the playoffs in 1968. Where an injured John Anderson, scored a hat trick in the playoffs in '91. Robbie Laird scoring on his knees in the 1970's and Terry Pembroke's hip check. Where Fort Wayne's own Colin Chin led some of the best Komet teams to skate on Memorial Coliseum ice. It's where you celebrated when they won the Turner Cup in '63 and the Colonial Cup in 03. It's the banners in the rafters honoring the greats of yesterday. It's tradition, it's Komet hockey.
