Ellsworth is a town in Wisconsin with a population of about 2,500 located a little southeast of River Falls, who is sure to become a rival. They will be joining the majority of their fellow Wisconsin teams in the MAHL in the St. Croix Hockey League and will play their home games at the Pierce County Fairgrounds which can seat 1,000.
The team was named the "Curds" in honor of the town's pride and passion, cheese curds. Ellsworth is known as the "Cheese Curd Capital of Wisconsin" which is really saying something when you consider how crazy about cheese they are over there. The Cheeseheads logo is a wishbone C with "urds" inside to spell out Curds. The teams official colors are burnt orange and gold.

St. Paul Park is a town on the shores of the Mississippi with a little less than 5,000 residents. Park shares a border with Cottage Grove and will also share a home as they will play at 1,178 seat Cottage Grove Ice Arena. The Rocks will be joining the St. Croix Hockey League.
They will be called the "Shamrocks" because of the high percentage of people from Park being of Irish descent. Their logo is a shamrock with three leaves, in each leaf is a letter spelling out SPP for St. Paul Park. The Shamrocks colors are kelly green and white.

I don’t know why, but Robbinsdale just hits so right for me *remembers the K. Trevor Wilson stand up bit* oh, that’s why. So add them to my fandom (TRF and The Six have a new member to my group).

I love the Buffalo Fish. Literally, everything about it brings me joy.
I believe I need an updated Wisconsin sig with the Curds logo on it.

Great looks all around for the new teams and I second Dan in saying that everything about Buffalo is amazing. Those are some great updates for the existing teams as well, speaking of which, I’d like to request an updated sig with Kenora’s new logo

The fish doesn't quite fit in with my seven deadly sin fish collection, but he will be joining the group. Hopefully murder fish will mentor him. A lot of potential there.

K. Trevor Wilson's standup bit is certainly not something I expected to see in this forum. However, you best believe I'm happy it exists!!!!!!!
