One bit of news is probably the switch to Reebok sweaters for next season, as reported earlier today by THG.

Hopefully to get rid of those ugly grey armpit paneling. If your change is the same as North Dakota's you will no longer have dazzle. They changed to Reebok a couple years ago for their current jerseys. The colors seem to pop more with those than their old dazzle. I look forward to seeing what the changes will bring.

To make jersey nuts like Ryan buy more jerseys?
I wouldn't be surprised to see Pearson go with more of a 'classic' look. Home golds anyone?

They should go back to the old way of doing things, Golds home and away, don't give a **** about anyone else.

I much prefer the Gold's to the Black's to tell the truth. Should be interesting to see what it looks like.To make jersey nuts like Ryan buy more jerseys?

So for the Twitter allergic, these are the relevant tidbits:
So for the Twitter allergic, these are the relevant tidbits:
- In addition to Gubb and Cecere, McCadden and Heinonen will be leaving the team. McCadden will be transferring like the first two, while Heinonen will continue working on his degree at Tech. "Not cuts...personal decisions".
- They're trying to get Bryce Reddick a fifth year of eligibility since he didn't play much before this season, and Pearson thought he made a lot of progress.
- Offseason conditioning program is all about strength and quickness. They may try to use the skating treadmill some due to the lack of ice, but Pearson doesn't seem very convinced that it does much good. He noted that it will "not be part of our program" and is strictly optional. He confirmed that they did not use it during the season at all.
- Pearson is happy with the returning players at forward and D, and thinks the biggest question mark is probably in goal. Genoe will be a senior, but Copley is "highly touted".
- Pleased with Tech's situation going into next season. They'll be a year into implementing the new style of play, and many of the WCHA's best players are leaving early or graduating.
- Article with more details coming Saturday

Re: Michigan Tech Offseason Thread
Interesting fade.
Speaking of style of play, I wonder if we will see additional parts to the style next year that were not in evidence much this year, and that we only saw a small amount of at the very end of the year. . I also think we will go at times, even more up tempo than we did this year. I will bet someone a kbc beer or two that we will start hurting people with the transition game.

I'm glad someone else leaked it. I really wanted to ask if anyone from the Misfits was ordering jerseys with the team this year, figuring they would have the concept drawings but I didn't want to be the first to say something incase the team was doing some kind of official announcement. I also guessed that indirectly, the team dumping the old jerseys would lead people to the obvious conclusion of a change on their own.
When I was doing the deal with the team, that was the first question I asked - What is the replacement? I too can confirm the team is going with Reebok for 2012-13, however I was told the first sets will have no external Reebok tagging or logos visible. Maybe issues with OT still under contract that couldn't be resolved in time or an "earn your stripes" play by Reebok? I don't know. I didn't really ask too many questions as I figure the info will come out when they are ready to share. If anyone has the concept drawings I would love to see them. A new style of play and new attitude deserves a new look too.
New jersey styles do not at all drive me crazy - it's all good for me because I know they eventually find their way out. Different is good. Honestly, I liked the OT jerseys but seven years of the same style is enough. I really hope at least one of the new jerseys is "outside the box" with a logo crest of some type. I know the script "Huskies" is one of those "eternal" crests that has been around forever, but even folks on here put together some cool crest ideas when we kicked it around a few months back. Especially with the outdoor games next season I really hope they put something new together even if it is a real retro style that they only use once. UPS says the jerseys arrive tomorrow - photos soon.
Unrelated item, I really like the "recuriting grid" at THG. A real logical way of looking at the current and future rosters. When it said "visual look at the future Huskies" I was expecting jersey photos!

I hope they have a black jersey with a single horizontal gold stripe across the chest, and then have, in black block letters "MCM" written on the gold stripe.

Re: Michigan Tech Offseason Thread
I heard they had considered a design with "NCHC Sux" on the front and "Bi6Ten Butt Hurt" on the Reebok tail, but it got nixed for political reasons.
But seriously, I would like an MCM throwback.

My guess is that a few years a go the athletic department signed an apparel agreement with Nike so they have to wait for that to expire before Reebok branding can be placed on the jerseys. Since our jerseys have been supplied by OT before this agreement was in place, they may have been grandfathered in the deal.

CC released their schedule yesterday. Both teams will finish up the '12-'13 regular season with the Tigers' last-ever trip to Houghton on 3/8 and 3/9.

Re: Michigan Tech Offseason Thread
IF there is striping along the bottom hem, can Reebok and MTU PLEASE make the stripe follow along the bottom instead of the stupid NHL "we refuse to acknowledge our stripes make a tail on the jerseys."
Like the Chicago Wolves jersey that Ryan has in his collection:
http://www.johnsonsjerseys.net/hockey/ahl/chi38_f.jpg
http://www.johnsonsjerseys.net/hockey/ahl/chi38_b.jpg
Because the tail created by teams like the Wings and Blackhawks refusing to follow the hem is stupid.
And if there isn't a bottom stripe, this isn't a problem then.

Re: Michigan Tech Offseason Thread
So as long as we're talking jersey designs is there anybody on this board who can talk them into removing the MichiganTech out out the script Huskies logo. It reads horribly and I really don't see myself buying any appreal that has that logo on it.

Re: Michigan Tech Offseason Thread
They insist on the MichTech? Or insist that it has to be in script? I do know they gave away many items that did follow their newest branding they started a few years ago.

I find it funny, they MUST have the Michigan Tech in the script even-though the Husky Heads on the shoulders of the black jerseys lack the required Michigan Tech. So, they bent the rules once on the jerseys, why not bend them twice.
