What do you know about my business?

The Peoria Rivermen began play as the Peoria Prancers in the IHL during the 1982-83 season, and have been operating continuously ever since. After two years as the Prancers, the team switched names for good to the Rivermen, and went on to win the IHL's Turner Cup in their first season under the new moniker. Following another Turner Cup in 1991 and an ECHL Kelly Cup in 2000, and now the 2022 Presidents Cup Champions the Rivermen have proven to be one of the most successful and enduring franchises in all of Minor Pro Hockey. Now entering our ninth season in the SPHL, the Rivermen look forward to more continued success on and off the ice in Peoria.

PEORIA, IL – The Peoria Rivermen announced this week their 13-man protected list for the upcoming 2023-24 SPHL Season. The Rivermen elected to protect nine forwards, and four defensemen. This does not guarantee that they will suit up for the Rivermen next season but ensures that their SPHL rights are held by Peoria.

Peoria’s protected list includes:

Forwards: Vadim Vasjonkin, Jordan Ernst, Joseph Widmar, Caden Cahill, Alec Baer, Mike Gelatt, JM Piotrowski, Joseph Drapluk, and Tyler Barrow

Defensemen: Zach Wilkie, Braydon Barker, Cale List and Jake Hamilton

Though this list does not include players like Mitch McPherson or Dale Deon, some have assured Rivermen head coach Jean-Guy Trudel that they will likely return to the Rivermen if roster space allows.
