Are there teams that geographically match up with all the old WHA teams? That's why I suggested the Toronto Roadrunners, which is the same franchise as the WHA's Phoenix Roadrunners (2 leagues, and 2 cities later) --- Chris Creamer Founder/Editor, SportsLogos.Net "The Mothership" • News • Facebook • X/Twitter • Instagram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted February 25, 2004 Author Share Posted February 25, 2004 Hmm...let's see here:WHA - > AHLWinnipeg Jets- Manitoba MooseHouston Aeros- Houston Aeros (well, duh)Cleveland Crusaders- Cleveland BaronsCincinnati Stingers- Cincinnati DucksNew England Whalers- Hartford WolfpackMichigan Stags (Detroit)- Grand Rapids GriffinsPhiladelphia Blazers- Philadelphia PhantomsChicago Cougars- Chicago WolvesToronto Toros- Toronto Roadrunners (although, yes, Phoenix is an option)Who else is there? Who am I missing? anything/anyone? I know there were a few west coast teams, and a few teams in the NYC area...but nothing that I think could really match up geographically with them now...And yes, I went from memory with the old WHA teams. When you grow up with season tickets behind the Jets net, you remember a LOT of these teams... Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJTank Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 I wonder if the new WHA will pay homage too next year when it finally launches. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted February 25, 2004 Author Share Posted February 25, 2004 I wonder if the new WHA will pay homage too next year when it finally launches. They can start by making the oldest player on the team skate during warmups with no teeth and a hairpiece like Bobby Hull did back in the day 4 teams, 3 in Canada. Even as a Canadian, I can safely say that this doesn't bode well for the league. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyboy1 Posted February 25, 2004 Share Posted February 25, 2004 Those are sweet, too bad minor league teams dont do that more often like teh Houston Aeros of the AHL wearing throwbacksThe current Houston Aeros of the AHL started wearing alternate jerseys based on the original WHA Aeros jerseys. This year, the former Alternate style became the main home and road jerseys.Also, the Manitoba Moose franchise has a prior history to paying tribute to past WHA teams. When the franchise was in St. Paul, they wore old Minnesota Fighting Saints jerseys in two "turn back the clock" games against the same Houston Aeros in the 94-95 season. There was one game in St. Paul and one in Houston, with the Aeros also wearing throwbacks.As always, pictures from dropthepucks.comJeffB Click here to read Third String Goalie - The Hockey Jersey of the Day Blog Click here to see my hockey and baseball jersey collection online ?You don?t like to see 20 kids punching 20 other kids.
