Okay, so hold up--does this not violate any kind of IP protocol or something? How were they able to pull this off? Or did they reach out to and clear this with the Winnipeg Jets first? 

 

That said, that whole Atlanta Thrashers identity was one of the most underrated looks in the NHL—of course it all went in the crapper once they went to that whole "Believe in Blueland" bullcorn...

 

The team asked the NHL for permission to use the Thrashers logo in May and were granted permission in October.

The Cleveland Monsters are throwing back to Cleveland Lumberjacks (IHL) uniforms next weekend.

This picture is from a few years ago when they did this, although I think this year will be the black jerseys.

 

My first and only Detroit Vipers game was played against the Lumberjacks. So many cool identities in the old IHL, many of which lived on.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of basically all the Milwaukee Admirals logos. I have more of their merch than Red Wings (favorite NHL team)

I've never understood why they went with the Monsters nickname. The Lumberjacks and Barons have so much history in Cleveland, whole Monsters just seems boring. Would have been the perfect time for a rebrand when they moved away from the Lake Erie name.

The Hamilton Bulldogs (OHL) are moving to Brantford for at least the next two seasons, and will rebrand as the Brantford Bulldogs. Logos and uniforms will remain the same.

It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Yeah, I know they had been talking about some major renovations for Copps for years now, even well after the league turned Jim Balsillie away. I wonder if they'll get a shot now. lol, no they won't.

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫
