ECHL's Mysticks moving to metro Atlanta

DULUTH - The Mobile Mysticks of the East Coast Hockey League plan to move to metro Atlanta, to play at Gwinnett County&#39;s Civic and Cultural Center when the regular season starts in mid-October 2003. <br> <br> The minor league club will be the second professional hockey team in the Atlanta area, joining the Thrashers of the NHL. <br> <br> ``There&#39;s a vibrancy in the area. There&#39;s a newness and forward thinking attitudes,&#39;&#39; said Toby Jeffreys, one of three majority co-owners of the Mysticks. <br> <br> The Mysticks are moving after seven seasons in Mobile, Ala. where attendance has dwindled to just over 2,600 last season. Jeffreys, who once owned a business in nearby Norcross, said he expects to sell more than 1,500 season tickets required by the ECHL.
