Back in the 90s and 2000s, the Shreveport Mudbugs were a staple in Shreveport-Bossier - often selling out the (then) CenturyTel Center. The players were popular, the team won championship.it was just AWESOME to see. Unfortunately, the team hit some hard times in 2011 and folded. A few years went by.and then, in 2016, the Bugs were reborn as a junior league team in the NAHL.
Unless you re a super hockey nut, the majority of people didn t know what that meant. Actually, I distinctly remember a lot of former Mudbug fans saying who wants to watch of bunch of kids play contactless hockey? Well, for those that gave the Baby Bugs a chance, not only have we gotten to witness some Championship winning performances, but some entertaining games.

Shreveport s comic con, Geek d Con, is teaming up once again with the Shreveport Mudbugs. This time for a weekend of PLAYOFF hockey!
This Friday and Saturday night, the Shreveport Mudbugs will be playing in the NAHL South Division Finals against the Wichita Falls Warriors. Friday and Saturday will be Games 1 and 2 in the series. The Mudbugs are the top seed in the South Division, so they have home ice advantage in the division finals.
In the first round of the NAHL Playoffs, the Mudbugs faced the Amarillo Bulls. They won that series 3-1, while Wichita Falls swept Lone Star 3-0 in their first round series.
For the first time since joining the NAHL, the Shreveport Mudbugs won a playoff series in less than five games, only needing four to eliminate Amarillo.
