Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League
Let's start with the redesigns, beginning with the Bemidji Blue Ox.
Bemidji ditched cream in favor of pure white as well as introduce a new logo based on the statue of Babe that the team is named after. The classic B will remain as a secondary logo.
The basic look of their old jerseys stays, but the double stripes are replaced with sleeve numbers and the new Babe logo is on the sleeve stripes.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League
The only other team to tweak their look this offseason were the Ely Black Bears.
The Black Bears simply added an outline to their iconic Ely script.
The Black Bears completely redesigned their away jersey, bringing back a slightly altered version of their first white uniform that they wore from 1915-1946. The addition of a chest number was given to both jerseys, this was the only change on the home jersey.

Let me know what you think, comments are appreciated!

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League
Although the changes made have been minor, I think they have both been positive. Thinking about it, there are a large amount of light blues in this league and can see why the waves moved away from it.
Love the artwork on the banners and all the variations. My favorite is unfortunately the Hibbing set up and least being Grand Rapids. Something about a large brown banner hanging on a wall or from the ceiling seems like it be distracting.
Went to look at the league but realized the drive only goes up to 1952 or somewhere close. There has been a lot of change since then though and was hoping to see the progression.

Thanks, glad you like it.

Thanks, and yeah that's a big reason I moved away from the light blue for WSP.
I'm not exactly sure what you are talking about with the archive though. Every logo and uniform for every team is in there going back to the very beginning.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League
Oh what in the world! Nvm me I’m just choosing to be oblivious I guess. Maybe I thought a team had an update and they actually didn’t idk why.

If that is a spoiler for a league, one of those teams is set to absolutely steam through the other competition.

Re: Minnesota Amateur Hockey League
Let's begin with northern expansion, leading off with the biggest team to join the league in a long time, the Winnipeg Monarchs. Winnipeg is the capital of Manitoba and is not too far from the Minnesota border, but it was still a surprise to league officials when they received a bid from the city to join the Northland Hockey League. Apparently word had spread from nearby Steinbach about the competitiveness of the league, and a group from Winnipeg decided they would be interested in reviving the legendary Winnipeg Monarchs who won gold medals and an Alan Cup.
The team will be called the "Monarchs" harking back to the old Canadian senior hockey team that folded in the late 30's. There is also a Junior team going by the same name and the teams will be associated with one another. The Monarchs logo is a W for Winnipeg with "Monarchs" script and their colors are deep purple and white.
