DEAD! 2,045 Posted December 17, 2020 5 hours ago, the admiral said: Yeah, but the longtime mayor of Mississauga was known as "Hurricane Hazel.," so it would have been a tribute to her. I looked, and she is 99, and very much not dead. Well, the sports teams at Hazel McCallion public school (grades 6-8) are known as the Hurricanes 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's enough metallic silver in Henderson's logo that it kind of works, but the flat gray fabric still clashes too much with it imo. Now, a chrome helmet with a metallic silver jersey a la Vegas's gold alternate, that would be...interesting? Maybe? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think its bad, especially for an AHL team, although I think black breezers would have worked wonders here. The dark gray feels somewhat off. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm guessing they're going to be used for certain games, like when Nashville originally wore gold helmets only on Saturdays, because those are definitely dark gray. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

monkeypower 3,017 Posted February 2 Yeah one of their announcement tweets was oddly specific in saying Quote HSK will wear the chrome helmets during every home game at Orleans Arena so I could see them waiting for the regular season, especially with VGK as their parent team. 16 hours ago, AFirestormToPurify said: Maybe they're just not ready yet? Maybe, but their announcement pictures had seven different helmets and if all the helmets weren't ready yet, seven seems like a weird number to get in one shipment (or they just had one and changed out the front helmet numbers for each different player picture but that seems like a lot of work). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VDizzle12 1,515 Posted February 3 Seems unnecessary and pretty poor execution of the Erie Otters "chrome" helmet. Seems like if college and AHL teams can do chrome or gold, an OHL team should be able to figure it out. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheLAKnight 398 Posted February 7 Henderson's numbers are illegible on the AHLTV feed. Also, while I like the chrome helmet in theory, that makes 4 shades of silver/gray/black which is just one too many. The black upper arms make the helmet seem stranger too. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
