Seadragon76 Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I don't know about this one...The name is lacking something and the jersey does the same.Also, why is it called the Central Hockey League when it clearly has most of it members in the Southwest?

Puck Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 Beware of the flaming eyeball!!So, is the logo going to go different directions based on the jersey?The sign shows the eye going downwards to the left, the jersey has it going to the right.

-Helix- Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 Rage??? odd name indeed..wasnt there an XFL football team with that nickname Rage??? They're still around too. The current Orlando Rage (who uses the same jerseys, logos, everything) are a semi-pro team.They're on TV sometimes. Only reason I know this.

benpc21 Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 The Portland Roller Hockey International team was called the Rage way back in the 90s...good times...just to throw that into the mix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frylock Posted February 4, 2006 Share Posted February 4, 2006 The Portland Roller Hockey International team was called the Rage way back in the 90s...good times...just to throw that into the mix. Yep... Still have one of their jerseys and some other cool goodies from the Portland Rage, for what it's worth.BTW... Awesome signature! Nice to see a fellow Hawks fan on the board here. One question, tho... Who are the Columbus and Vancouver sweaters for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmoak Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I don't know about this one...The name is lacking something and the jersey does the same.Also, why is it called the Central Hockey League when it clearly has most of it members in the Southwest? The original Central Hockey League franchises from 1992-3:Wichita ThunderTulsa OilersOklahoma City BlazersMemphis RiverKingsDallas FreezeFort Worth FireThat's pretty central. Since then, they've xpanded and merged with the Western Pro Hocley League, which was mostly Texas/Southwest teams.BTW, the logo reminds me of the Eye of Sauron from Lord of the Rings.
