from Sean Shapiro of The Athletic,
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — Kevin Fitzgerald remembers the pitch vividly.
Come play three-on-three hockey in an upstart league, all costs will be covered traveling across the United States and Canada, and you’ll get paid to do it.
“It sounded too good to be true,” Fitzgerald said. “I thought there was no way this was legit.”
Three weeks into 3ICE, the 25-year-old forward has close to $18,000 in his bank account, proving the pitch was, indeed, legit.
“I’m a guy right out of college, so after the first week that was the largest deposit I’ve ever had go into my bank account,” Fitzgerald said.
A nine-stop summer touring circuit, 3ICE is many things, but most importantly it’s a potentially life-changing financial event for the 42 players spread across six teams.
