I don't have the photoshop skills to make up a mock up, but I think they would make a very nice jersey. It's a clean design without all the extra piping and lines.

My only tweak to this jersey would be that I don't like how the "Adirondack" wordmark breaks up the bottom line. I'd prefer to see a solid bottom line and then Adirondack in between the lines.

I'd be shocked if he was even in Glens Falls.
I would hope we aren't paying a player who isn't playing. That's a terrible precedence to set for other prospects in our system who would see what's happening. Unless it's some excruciating personal circumstance that's preventing him from playing (family member with a terminal illness or personal issues he's receiving help for), I don't see why he should have a contract and collect his money if he's sitting out because he doesn't want to be there. We could EASILY find a kid who does. That's when you put him on the unconditional waivers with intent to terminate the contract. It happened last year with Klesla when he was traded to Buffalo and chose to retire over report to Rochester because the AHL just wasn't where he wanted his career to be. They put him on unconditional waivers so that if anyone else wanted him, they could, he cleared, they cancelled his contract and he became a UFA and free to sign wherever he wanted or retire.
