Retired Numbers


South St. Paul has decided to retire team legend Anders Johansson's number 8 to the rafters of Wakota Arena. Johansson was a two time Tschida Award winner who nearly single handedly brought the Mavs to 5 straight playoff appearances from 1956-1960.


The Winnipeg Monarchs have retired the number 7 for all time. The decision was made to honor Greg Patrick, a Monarch for 6 years who helped lead Winnipeg to back to back Kellogg Cups in 65 and 66. Patrick was signed by the Philadelphia Flyers in 1967, becoming the first and only player in Monarch history (thus far) to reach the NHL. Patrick left the Flyers after winning the 1974 Stanley Cup, joining his home town team in the WHA, the Winnipeg Jets. Patrick was instrumental in helping guide the Jets to their first Avco World Trophy just a season ago. (With the Monarchs and Jets sharing a home arena, Patrick's name will hang in the rafters while playing for the Jets which I think is kinda funny)

Baker Bill really makes me love that team more, which is kind of hard to do considering they are a top 10 for me. 

Eveleth is going to need a bigger wall.

The International Falls Ice are making their first uniform change in the teams 30 year history, simplifying their striping to 2 stripes to represent their 2 Kellogg Cups. The stripe below the shoulders is removed, number font is changed and numbers are added to sleeves, laces are added to the jersey, and stripes were added to the breezers. The Ice did not make any changes to their logos.

We finally have done it! We got the outline.

Little Falls updated their classic Pilots wings logo, ditching the Pilots script in favor of a cleaner look more like you would see on a real pilots wings, Little Falls is also added to the logo on the bottom.


The Pilots also adjusted their uniforms, changing up the striping, adding outlines to the numbers, and replacing the script Pilots with their new logo on the chest.
