They figured out how to make one side of the ice a larger thickness than the other side, and then set a perfect incline up to the higher side.

Then they have hydraulics under the ice that alternates the high side and low side between periods.

Winnipeg 2.0 did haven't a jersey ready for the 2011 Draft, but they did announce that they'd be the Jets that night.

I think the Coyotes had a logo but not a jersey ready for the 1996 Draft. Danny Briere's draft day jersey was a generic black one with the logo. Colorado didn't have a team name in time for the 1995 Draft but had a jersey ready for opening night. I think Carolina had a generic white jersey in 1997. If I recall correctly, there was some legal battle over the Hurricane name.

Maybe just bad timing with the switch from Adidas to Fanatics even if they're using the same factory. Sounded like the Ducks/Kings had their new jerseys submitted awhile back and Fanatics asked that teams hold off on any big rebranding.

Ehhhh….

Utah is brand new, on short notice. The Fanatics shit isn’t their fault. Its not a joke of a franchise. They literally just started. They will get a real name and sweater next year which is best since they actually have time to make the right decisions. Also brings in extra revenue to have an initial jersey this year and then the real ones next year.

They chose Utah over Metairie. I can’t imagine a non-joke franchise doing that.

I believe the main reason they didn't pick a name yet was because the factories in China wouldn't have jerseys ready for the season.

Makes sense that Fanatics can't get the UTAH jerseys in time if the same problem held the team back from picking a name.

Cousins was signed by sens.

Now I mostly have no interest in any player from the market. Hope it will helps to make the next step for Foote. At least.
