chrysleraspen08 227 Posted April 11, 2013 I know it's a bit early but since all of the changes for the upcoming season are being posted in the 2012-13 season thread, I thought that I might as well start the new thread. So far the only changes that I can think of that are confirmed is Erie's new alternate jersey and the new logo and jerseys for the Charlottetown Islanders (I didn't include North Bay's logo because it's basically the same). As for anniversary logos, I can only think of Sarnia (20th), Moose Jaw (30th) and Kamloops (30th). 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rvrdgsfn 94 Posted April 20, 2013 May want to hold off on PEI for various reasons...http://www.icethetics.info/blog/2013/4/19/official-aeros-becoming-iowa-wild.htmlIn other rebranding news, the QMJHL's P.E.I. Rocket were supposed to officially unveil their new logos and uniforms on Thursday. They were to be renamed the P.E.I. Islanders for next season. However, the owners suddenly put the team up for sale, according to The Guardian, taking the rebrand off the table for now.Unless a local group can come up with the money to keep the team on Prince Edward Island, it will be sold to a group planning to relocate to Sorel, Quebec, where they'd be rebranded as the Sorel Eperviers 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the admiral 28,278 Posted April 20, 2013 I'm willing to take some heat from the "WAAA IT'S ALREADY TOO NORTHEASTERN" crowd, but wouldn't Erie be a better AHL market than OHL? The travel is easier, and people in that area are more likely to care about the pipelines for the Sabres and Penguins than the junior ranks. I think someone explained to me that the presence in Erie allows the OHL to claim the entire state of Pennsylvania for priority selections, but couldn't they just do that anyway based on the fact that it's closest to that league? And if that were so important, why wouldn't they have a team in New York? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rvrdgsfn 94 Posted April 20, 2013 Normally I would say Erie would need a new building... but with all the rumors of Utica getting in the AHL, I have to agree. I'd think it would be a better fit. Either that or get back in the ECHL to fit more geographically with the teams, if Calgray can get a team to play in a 4,000 seat arean, imagine what a tema could do in one of the loudest buildings in the OHL?Besides, didn't we also hear reports that Hamilton is going back to the OHL considering Laval may come in to take the bulldogs place? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrysleraspen08 227 Posted April 20, 2013 Erie's arena doesn't look any worse than Syracuse, Rockford, or Binghamton.Renovations are supposed to be finished on the Erie Insurance Arena sometime over this summer. The renovations were estimated to cost around $42 Million and started last year. The arena is supposed to look completely different when finished. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We don't even know what's happening half the time with our own city. (It's that confusing) Here's the summary of what we know.http://www.thespec.com/sports/local/article/913018--bulldogs-owner-could-buy-otters 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CGL77 19 Posted April 28, 2013 I was talking to someone associated with the new owenership in PEI. Apparently the new logo will be a spoked "I" a la the Boston Bruins and the colours (potentially the jerseys too) are supposed to be black and gold a la the Pittsburgh Penguins.Gross lmao. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OMMF 120 Posted May 15, 2013 Go the PA Raiders website and the splash page says the "Green Movement" begins tomorrow. Lots of tweets with that hashtag, too. Looks like they might be dropping the black jersey and going back to green. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nash61 1,697 Posted May 15, 2013 The Knights have won the championship in their green anniversary sweaters the past two years. I, for one, LOVE them, because they get rid of that terrible Edge logo. Wouldn't mind seeing it full time.20122013: 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kiwi_canadian 196 Posted May 16, 2013 I noticed that there is no Reebok logo on the front and they don't appear to be Edge jerseys... Is the CHL contract with Reebok over? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edubdesign 578 Posted May 16, 2013 They look like the same template the Jets used at the draft before they had actual uniforms. They are Reebok, but they may also be placeholders. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
