JCRGraphix Posted August 15, 2015 Author Share Posted August 15, 2015 Great series so far you always do a great job! I know this is Probobly somewhere in this topic and sorry for asking but how did you come up with the legacy points? It's a great idea.The legacy points are 1 point for each season played, 1 point for each season they made the playoffs, 3 points for a Leif Erikson Cup runner-up, and 6 points for a Leif Erikson Cup win.The 1990-91 PAHL season had 21 teams playing 80 games each. The Minnesota Fighting Saints led by the goaltending of Finnish sensation Jarmo Myllys led the league with an impressive record of 57-18-5. The Brooklyn Americans also finished with 50 wins to lead the Eastern Conference. At the conclusion of the regular season, the Syracuse Mohawks announced that they were closing up shop for good this time ending a storied 37 year franchise. The Seattle Orcas also announced that they were suspending operations for the 1991-92 season. The 1991 playoffs began with the Fargo Flames beating the Windsor Ambassadors, Huntsville Apollos beating the Austin Texans, and the Gatineau Quebecois beating the Fort Drum Rangers all three games to one. The Providence Reds led by young Martin Brodeur edged the Kingston Chiefs in five games. In round two, the Kalamazoo Checkers eliminated the Apollos and the Markham Tigers knocking out the Gatineau Quebecois each in five. The Providence Reds upset the Brooklyn Americans in six, and the Minnesota Fighting Saints elimintaed the Fargo Flames in seven. The conference finals were both a battle with the Checkers squeaking by the Saints in seven and the Tigers finally beating Broudeur and the Reds in six. The 1991 Leif Erikson Cup featured two old PAHL franchises facing off. The Tigers proved too much though for the Checkers and won their third Leif Erikson Cup in six games. At the conclusion of the season, the PAHL announced it would be adding three teams for the 1991-92 season. One to replace the Syracuse Mohawks as the Buffalo Sabres' minor league affiliates, and one to serve as the new NHL expansion team's affiliates. A west coat franchise was also granted to an ownership group including filmmaker Steven Spielberg to replace the Orcas as the Canucks' farm team.

willmoen Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Yep, those are definitely starting to look like 90's uniforms, especially the oilers. Also, I can see why the Sacramento fans didn't like the Pines new uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
