shrader Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Claude Noel named head coach. http://www.tsn.ca/nh...rce=twitterfeed Winnipeg will open their season against Montreal. So up to this point, they're hiring most of the AHL staff? I wonder if this group is going to have what it takes to put a winning product out there at the NHL level.

spndnchz Posted June 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 This doesn't give me a good feeling. If he's taking this long to consider it, then he probably doesn't want to come to Buffalo. Wpg expected to announce the name of its team just prior to making the 7th selection overall. Unconfirmed as to what the name will be. -Dreger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robviously Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 :lol: Those JETZ would be Xtreme... Uniforms with WXZ alternate logo on the shoulder and sleeves that are different colors, both from each other and the rest of the uniform. Primary color? Metallic black. Main uniform innovation? Sunglasses. Because that's cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want young and fresh, I doubt they'd even bother trying to find it in Winnipeg. The typical little kid american has never even heard of it.
