Default Flames name Kansas City Mavericks as ECHL affiliate for 2017-18 season

https://www.nhl.com/flames/news/flam...te/c-289839048

As for Adirondack, they released a statement that they plan to name a NHL affiliation in the near future.

this should be a strong indication that the pending sale of Adirondack to the local group has gone through

Closer to Stockton and Calgary...Better for the players and management.

I like this move simply because I thought the Thunder had some of the worst jerseys in the league.

Maybe the Mavericks can use the flaming shot horse head jerseys next season.

Wouldn't need to modify their current logo much.

Makes total sense. Much closer to Stockton/Calgary than Adirondack. Liked it better knowing they owned the team though, as you feel they have more control over roster decisions in that scenario.

Seems like a reasonable Plan B.

Plan A would be to re-name them as the Kansas City Scorch.
