The Rapidz set up shop in the Can-Am league after the Lynx left town. After one season they went bankrupt and were being run by the league. This was when they were rebranded as the Voyageurs. The new name never saw the field as the team suspended operations before the start of the '09 season. The stadium was also home to the Fat Cats from 2010-2012.

Stop me if you've heard this story before. A group has managed to bring minor league baseball back to Ottawa for the 2015 season. The as of yet unnamed franchise will be playing in the Can-Am league and is looking for suggestions from the public for a team name. Ideas can be submitted to info@ottawaprobaseball.com. The creator of the winning name will receive a pair of season tickets along with "other great prizes that show off the new name". So if you've always wanted to name a franchise that will be around for a couple of years drop them a line. Remember the winning suggestion will likely need to be bilingual-friendly.

I like the Rbk Edge jerseys. I prefer the tighter fit and I love the addition of the NHL logo in the collar. My only suggestion would be to use the team's colours like MLB does with its logo on jerseys and hats. And while most of the new uniforms have been hit-or-miss I thik some of the new templates really work (like the Panthers). I think that the best look the canucks had was their pre-edge jerseys (I am fully aware that this contradicts my last point). The colours are great and using Native imagery is a direction that they should have gone for with the rest of their logo package. I dislike the Senators use of the centurion logos and the colour gold. Most of the Sens concepts I see on this board put a greater emphasis on the colour gold. I wish that they would drop it the gold and the logo altogether. I mean their logo isn't even a Roman senator it's a centurion. I wish they would just use a barberpole jersey with the O on the front. Seeing a team using double blue does not make me want to kill myself, although the Florida Panthers using it bothers me. As long as a team can make it look good, which most of the teams that have used it have done, I have no problem with it. In fact, I would say the same about any colour scheme that people on this board claim is "overused". If it looks good I don't care. I prefered the last two Jazz identities that focused on the mountain logo as opposed to the musical note logo. I mean at this point the Jazz can't change their name, so they might as well have a logo and colours that represent their location rather than a logo and colours that match their nickname and have none of it represent the location. That's all I can think of right now but I'm sure that I have a few other unpopular opinions.
