Title: Name Your Minor League Team!
Post by: Drew on April 19, 2012, 05:09:51 PM: I have decided just for fun that we can name our minor league teams. You can name them your actual minor league team like for Edmonton - Oklahoma City Barons or you can name them a CHL/ US college or Canadian university team. I think this will be a cool little addition but will only be on the ProFSL roster. Also include the logo for the team you would want, it can be the actual logo but I need a link to it.

Teams Named

Post by: Drew on April 19, 2012, 05:55:58 PM: For sake of ease and conformity please find all logos using wikipedia and link me to them. Or of a size 200x200 size image that has no white background.

Post by: BeanTown on April 19, 2012, 06:47:00 PM: Just noticed you said "ANY" team.... If I can change mine I will go with my Original Home Town:

St. John's Ice Caps (Just got a team this year) I grew up watching the Old St. John's Maple Leafs (Yanik Pereault & Felix Potvin lol)

If I can change I will take the Ice Caps if not it's all good!

Main logo no. If you were using it for your minor league team then yes.

Nice Pick Mariner! Watched them for 8 years when I lived in Halifax, great teams in those years and Memorial Cup at home was crazy.
