Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

The Bloomington Bears of the West Metro Hockey League simplified their logo, removing "Benji" from the logo in favor of an updated version of their iconic B. 


The Bears also made some adjustments to their uniforms. The striping was tweaked, the numbers were slightly altered and are now outlined and matching the logo on the front in color on both the home and away.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

With the Cyclones heading indoors, the team felt now was the perfect time to adjust their identity. Their new logo is an updated version of their classic Cyclone, now with motion lines added and the FF logo removed. The FF is also updated and cleaned up and is used on its own as a secondary logo.


For the first time in their 28 year history, Fergus Falls is changing their uniforms besides just adding stripes to the socks and color to their gloves. The new look is similar but completely new at the same time. The FF logo sits on the front of the sweater with the Cyclone sitting on the right shoulder on both the home and away. The Cyclones decided to keep the single pair of orange socks for both uniforms saying "why bother with two pairs when one does the trick?"

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

The Rochester Mustangs also decided that moving to a new arena was a perfect chance to introduce their new logo. The Mustangs have used the Silhouette logo for their entire existence and decided that it was finally time to move on to something new. Their new logo is a more detailed bucking Mustang in the teams colors of black and gold. (This logo is the real logo that the IRL Rochester Mustangs used at this time period see here)


The Mustangs decided to leave their uniforms almost entirely unchanged, not even touching their classic home jersey. The only change to either uniform is swapping the new logo in for the old on the away.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

Our final identity change comes from Silver Bay in the Lake Superior Hockey League. The Beavers decided to introduce an official logo to replace their Beavers script. The new logo is a cartoon Beaver head in the team colors of taconite and orange.


The Beavers decided to make some changed to their uniforms as well. The away is almost the same, only now with their new logo on the left shoulder. The home jersey is overhauled, adding white and better matching the away. Their new logo is added to the left shoulder and the Silver Bay text from their away jersey replaces the Beavers script on the front.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

Crystal is a city in the northwest metro area with a population of just under 30,000 bordering New Hope and Brooklyn Park. The Colts will play their home games at New Hope Arena, joining the Raiders also of the North Metro Hockey League in what is bound to be a fierce rivalry between these neighbors straight out of the gate.

The team will be called the "Colts" and their colors are blue and orange. Their logo is a CC monogram for Crystal Colts.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

Wayzata is a relatively small city to the southwest of Plymouth with less than 4,000 people. Despite this, a few people from the southwestern portion of Plymouth have said they would be open to playing for Wayzata due to actually being closer to them than the Militia so it will be interesting to see how that pans out between the two. The Wolverines will play their home games at 1,200 seat Wayzata Ice Arena. The Wolverines will play in the North Metro Hockey League.

The team will be called the "Wolverines" named after the fierce animal and because it rolls off the tongue. Their logo is a stylized W in their colors of red and blue.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

Hermantown is actually not a recognized city at this point in time, though talks are that the town will be incorporated very soon. Despite this, a group of residents have decided that their community of nearly 7,000 deserved a MAHL team to call their own. The Huskies will play their home games in neighboring Duluth, calling 500 seat Fryberger Arena home, an arena that has earned the loving nickname "Freezeberger" due to the temps often being colder inside the rink than outside. The Huskies will be joining the Lake Superior Hockey League.

The team will be called the "Huskies". One of the founding members was quoted in a local newspaper explaining the name as saying "Huskies are hard workers who thrive in the cold, that's what we're gonna have to do to succeed." Their logo is a roundel with a Husky head cut out and their colors are black and old gold.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

Proctor is a small town on the outskirts of Duluth that when hearing about Hermantown getting a team, decided to throw their hat into the ring as well. With only 3,000 residents, it is going to be an uphill climb for Proctor as they face off with their much larger league mates in the Lake Superior Hockey League. The Spikes will play their home games at 1,200 seat St. Louis County Arena.

The team will be called the "Spikes" referring to Railroad Spikes due to the towns history with trains. Their logo is Spikes written out with the I replaced with a Railroad Spike. The team colors are black, orange, and yellow.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

Lake City is a town of about 4,000 in southeast Minnesota on the shores of Lake Pepin on the Mississippi River. Set to join the Valley Hockey League, the Skis will play their home games outdoors on Peters Park Rink.

They will be called the "Skis" referring to Water Skiing which was invented in Lake City by a resident back in 1922. Their logo is an oval with "Skis" script inside. Their colors are powder blue and yellow.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League

Joining Lake City in the Valley is Wabasha. Wabasha (Wah-buh-shaw) is a city right next to Lake City on the shores of the Mississippi so a rivalry is bound to form between the two. Sitting with less than 2,500 people, Wabasha will have their work cut out for them. The Eagles will play their home games outdoors on Malone Park Rink.

The team will be called the "Eagles", named after the insane number of Bald Eagles that live in Wabasha during the winter as they eat fish from the open waters on the Mississippi River there. Down the line Wabasha will be home the the National Eagle Center, a place I highly recommend checking out sometime if you want to see some Eagles. Their logo is a stylized Eagle with its head and wings forming a W for Wabasha. Their colors are brown, blue and white. Brown and white to represent the colors of an eagle, and blue to represent the Mississippi River.
