Please join us in welcoming Mitch Atkins to #Knocksville! He joins us after posting back-to-back 40-point seasons in the SPHL. Welcome, Mitch!​ ​ “I’m ecstatic to be joining the Knoxville Ice Bears. The atmosphere at the Coliseum is electric and the organization has a long history of winning championships. I’m excited to be a part of that culture.” Head Coach John Gurskis: “Mitch is coming off his finest season as a professional and I have no doubt he’ll continue to be that way in an Ice Bears uniform. With over 200 games of pro experience, Mitch is capable of playing key minutes in all situations.”
