Yes, but in the playoffs teams must designate what will be their home and away jersey for each game and they can't change that. But they could maybe wear the jerseys in warm-ups as a tribute.

Every time I look at that logo, it just screams perfection. It's such a visually pleasing work of art for both the sports fan and the human mind. The symmetry and team representation are incredible.

Not only their logo, but I always loved their color schemes.

Yes... I am aware of that.. I am not sure how my comment insinuated that I didn't think they had them? I legitimately said it would be neat to see them wear them, insinuating that they DO have them?

I just figured wearing them for a whole game in the playoffs might be a bit much as it is a Carolina hockey team now. Figured the warm up thing was a good nod to the legacy of the logo creator, as he has just passed away, as we've seen them do for other groups/affiliations for recognition.

I can also draw a picture or submit a detailed power point presentation if required for further explanation..
