There is some branding news to report, as the Lake Erie Mosnters are becoming the Cleveland Monsters for the 2016-2017 AHL season. The news was announced today at an event outside of Quicken Loans Arena.
Cleveland Cavaliers/Quicken Loans Arena CEO Len Komoroski was joined onstage by John Davidson, President of Hockey Operations and Alternate Governor of the Monsters’ proud NHL affiliate, the Columbus Blue Jackets, Blue Jackets Assistant General Manager Bill Zito and the Calder Cup itself to announce the change.
After a video highlighting the Monsters’ on-ice success and the long history of pro hockey in Cleveland culminated with the unveiling of the Monsters’ new primary logo, two members of the Monster Hockey Girls were invited onstage to help reveal the team’s new home and away jerseys. With a primary color scheme of black, wine and a splash of gold, the Monsters will wear their white jerseys at home until midseason when, in accordance with AHL rules, home teams will begin wearing their dark uniforms for the duration of the campaign.
