I love the old Mr. Cyclone symbol and the recent symbol as well. I don't think there is a need to change that, but rather a need to flare up the jersey design more.
I wouldn't mind bringing back the gold jerseys. |

| Go back to the original jersey and re-do the promotion "Be the FIRST to wear the WORST" I'd be all for that ;) |

I would like to see a new third jersey. Adding a yellow or re-doing the black jersey with a new logo/lettering would be fine in my book. The Twister logo is cartoonish but workable and doesn't require a big change. I would very much like to see a change in font for the numbers and the players names. It is VERY hard to read at a distance and the sevens look interchangable with the ones.
The old Goalie as a C logo should remain retired unless someone is planning retro night. |

tjpav.....you make a great point. I think having a third alternate jersey, kinda like Boston did with the White and Black, then their 3rd was a yellow with the grizzly bear on the front, is a great idea. Just something to give a little incentive on the days they'd wear the 3rd alternate jersey.

I agree tjpav, the font they used on the jerseys last year was awful. I guess they thought it was stylish or whatever, but it's not easy to read especially from a distance, and especially when on the red or black jerseys. Even just going back to the font they used from the previous year would be preferable. At least it was legible...
I vote yellow/gold jerseys or maybe change the black to the older IHL style ones where it has the wide yellow and white stripes. Those were fairly popular and I've heard a few of the players in the past that like that style better than the plain black we have now. |
What you do today can change the course of your life far into the future. Today is critical. Today really counts. |

| The font they have for the names/numbers is the same as the Nashville Predators, and im sure it wasnt by coincidence. Im not saying I agree with it, as the slanted numbers with the hookings or whatever you want to call it can be hard to read. Standard block letter / number style would work just fine, or maybe rounder numbers like the Phillies use in baseball |

| I seem to remember that the old Cyclones logo was voted worst in all of American pro sports, not just in the IHL. And this was back-to-back years. I can't find anything on the net about it, but I remember hearing about it on a radio morning show. Can anybody else remember? |

| That is correct the bear.....Our uniform has ALWAYS been in the lower end, if not worst rated, of those in the league we belong in (IHL, ECHL). We dont need to drop the "Twister" logo, just gotta be more creative in how he's pictured, imo. |

| I think they should put out parent clubs logo on the shoulders....have a predators logo on one side and canadians on the other. Does anyone know why they never did it or why they would not? |

I sure hope not. The team is called Cyclones.. not Predators. NHL teams don't wear our logos on their jerseys. |

That would be for the AHL affiliates to do. If anything we would wear Mil. and Ham.
I believe Peoria used to wear the St Louis Blues logo on their front chest when they were in the ECHL, but that is the only team I can remember showing their affiliation with their NHL club. |
