\n\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Florida Everblades and the ECHL have encountered a major roadblock during the 2025-2026 season as players across the league are preparing to go on strike.In a statement released to fans, the Everblades announced that because of the main players’ union’s decision to force all players to go on strike, the team will likely be postponing some games.This comes after the ECHL proposed a final offer that included a 20% raise in player salary, expanded top-of-the-line equipment, and more off days, but the union did not accept.The team has also announced that tomorrow’s game against the Reading Royals has been postponed.The status of other future games remains unchanged at this time.DOWNLOAD\u202fthe free\u202fGulf Coast News app\u202ffor your latest news and alerts on breaking news, weather, sports, entertainment, and more on your phone or tablet.
