@@rubberneckinc.8937 Yeah I heard that one later too and was like... welp 🤷🏼♂️ can't win em all. Maybe now that I've just moved East I'll hear those more often haha
Favorite memory of the Kalamazoo Wings: I'm not sure if they do this anymore, but after a fight, they used to play the "I love you, you love me" song from Barney & Friends.
Also, the Ghost Pirates and I’d argue the Solar Bears are doing a minor league baseball thing where they make their brand really weird and different to sell more of their gear. For example, a Boston Bruins fan won’t likely buy a Providence Bruins jersey because they’re so similar. Look at the Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp, Toledo Mud Hens, Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs, Albuquerque Isotopes, El Paso Chihuahuas, Akron Rubber Ducks, and I could go on. The minor league teams get to have more fun with it and, as a result, get more meech profit.
When you get to the Swamp Rabbits & Solar Bears. Then even better with Trois-Rivieres Lions, which is phenomenal. It's better than the Wheeling Nailers. Which is great too, but opinions right. It's like Rapid City what are you doing? Don't just give up now.
nothing against you, just against the Nailers but here in Iowa we prefer to call them the Wheeling Whiners :D Glad to see you giving love to the landers though, I love the logo and it just works on the jerseys too.
@@icewyre if you have Flo, just watch back the games against wheeling. Hell one of the fights made it onto a Spittin Chicklets compilation. I would mention Fort Wayne or the K-Wings but that's more of a holdover because there's a good few QC Mallards fans as well which had a History against both teams in the UHL/IHL/CHL as well as the ECHL until they folded in 2017/18.
RIP Newfoundland Growlers Also, they’re named for the Adirondack State Park, in which the Adirondack mountains run through. They’re part of the Appalachian chain. Furthermore, it’s more so pronounced All-Ban-E. Albany, NY.
The Atlanta Gladiators definitely upgraded from the old colors. It was the same logo but different colors, I think it was like crimson and a really weird brownish gold? New colors are definitely better. I went to the ATL vs Trois-Rivières Lions game last night, and they have an awesome logo too. Its alot better than the other lion logo because it portrays a much more powerful & intense image of the team itself. The ATL Gladiators logo (imo) is definitely better than the Thrashers logo when they used to be the ATL ECHL team.
That's an interesting case. On their website, and the ECHL website, they still use the cartoony fish logo. But at centre ice in their arena, it's the more realistic fish. So idk which it is, but it also looks like their jerseys are still using the cartoony fish apart from one.
Hey wolfman. That's pretty sad, hey? I really liked the Growlers team identity. I actually made this video a while ago while they were still a team, but yeah it's sad to see them go.
Hmm... Worcester Maine, eh? I may have fixed my Alligator mistake, but I missed my Massachusetts 🤷🏼♂️
Yeah Worcester Maine. Anyway it's the Reading Royals pronounced Redding like the color. I know not how it's spelt but I live right by there so.

@@icewyre no worries I am surprised you & your family weren't told how awful you for a mispronounced name though. Lol

As a Cincy Cyclones 🌪 fan I miss our old twister logo or even the old hockey mask logo. The C reminds me too much of the Cincinnati Reds.
I absolutely love the Lions logo

Hey great video, as always!
The railers are in Worcester, Massachusetts, not Maine, I think you just misspoke cuz you had it right on the slide.
Oops, haha. Yup, Massachusetts
I forgot the ECHL exists thanks for reminding me
With utah getting the NHL team I forgot about the grizzlies until today and I got stuck here
Im a big fan of the Tulsa Oilers, thank you for doing this video, I enjoyed it. Definitely thought the Oilers were going to be at least top 15 lol
nothing against you, just against the Nailers but here in Iowa we prefer to call them the Wheeling Whiners :D
Glad to see you giving love to the landers though, I love the logo and it just works on the jerseys too.
Yeah, you Heartlanders have a great logo. And haha, I'd expect nothing less if it's your rival lol

hahah funny you said about playing against the rush. Thats how i was when they played our team Wichita Thunder.
The Jacksonville Icemen games are incredible. Hoping we take the Kelly Cup this year!
Minor league baseball has some sick team mascots/logos too. Idk if you’ve done a video on that or not but you totally should
The Walleye logo is based on their baseball team, the Mud Hens.
You could almost do a short video on the different St. John’s teams. Three different AHL teams, a QMJHL team, and a ECHL team
Oh.. you mean former AHL teams right?
@@icewyre yessir
Icemen are originally from Evansville
I like the logos of this league but I think their names could have been done better. I really like the Cincinnati Cyclones Logos

Yeah the newer colours are definitely an upgrade
The Iowa heartlanders logo can be a logo for an NHL team, it's that good.
The Walleye have a realistic fish logo now

@@icewyre They actually have a variety of logos. The realistic one, the cartoon one, a fishbone one. They are used for various events.
As a nailers fan, Yes this is the best
1:03 this actually was created in a rush
3:15 that TOTALLY looks like some sort of oxi-clean type logo
There is one team on this list that no longer exist. Newfoundland Growlers were terminated by rhetorical ECHL for failure to fulfill league by-laws
Hey wolfman. That's pretty sad, hey? I really liked the Growlers team identity. I actually made this video a while ago while they were still a team, but yeah it's sad to see them go.
Portland Pirates were AHL there was an AHL team named Maine Mariners
LETS GO NAILERS!!!
Maine is a continuation of the Alaska Aces franchise
my favorite are wichita thunder and iowa heartlanders
Don’t judge a book by its cover
No!
You sir are absolutely and irredeemably wrong!
The Trois-Riviers Lions is the absolute best logo of the ECHL!
The reading royals is pronounced Redding
GO BLADES
To each their own but I have to take exception to your top 2. Those are some pretty sad logos!
It’s pronounced Redding, pa
