New day for Bugs fans

Now that Brad Treliving is leaving the CHL as president to become the assistant general manager of the Phoenix Coyotes and media relations guru Steve Cherwonak is leaving the league office to become the Bugs' GM, will Bugs fans still believe in a league conspiracy against them?

In all seriousness, this is a transition time in the league office. And by just about every measure - except for the playoff system last year -- the league has been a success with Treliving at the helm.

It will be interesting to see who sits in the president's chair. And it will be interesting to see the league office's relationship with those red hot Mudbugs fans.
