I don't remember the Brass ever beating the Ice Gators in a clutch game. We played well against them, pretty often with a few regular season wins. But they were always better, or it seemed that way, when it mattered.

I remember Villeneuve, well, though. One year, maybe the last one in the Auditorium, we played a New Year's Eve game, still have the jersey. Then the Krewe of Brass (booster club) had a party until about 3:00 a.m. in one of the banquet rooms in the Auditorium. Villeneuve went from table-to-table finishing off people's half-finished bottles of champagne.

according to Wikipedia, we beat them in the second round of they playoffs in 98-99 season (which must be what I remember) before falling short against those bastards the Pee Dee Pride in the next round.

that's awesome I was sad to see Villeneuve did not in fact make it to the NHL.
