The Soo Greyhounds, in partnership with the Ontario Hockey League and Stadium Digital today announced the launch of a newly designed website at soogreyhounds.com
The revamped team site follows the CHL-wide redesign that will see all member teams , league, and special event websites unveiled in the coming weeks.
The Hounds are the first team site to launch the new design in the OHL, following the league’s platform released yesterday.

“As an organization we are very excited to introduce the new soogreyhounds.com” began Greyhounds Director of Public Relations & Hockey Administration, Gerry Liscumb Jr. “This design follows a lengthy period of work by the OHL and Stadium digital to help our team provide a sleek, fresh and clean site to Greyhound fans that offers the visitors the ultimate viewing experience no matter how they are viewing the site.”
The site offers improved navigation and news feed showcasing more articles, photos, and video content on the homepage, along with a redesigned schedule and enhanced live scoring console. Fueled by league stats provider HockeyTech, fans can now access a hub of information to follow the action including game previews, links to tickets and live video and audio streams, a new play-by-play feed that tracks in arena events such as shots on goal and face-offs, along with a fresh box score design.
“Fans will notice the many new features but also many new content and design changes as these sites put more flexibility into our hands to provide the best experience possible to our fans. It will be an ever-changing environment for those who stop by the site” added Liscumb.
