What should a new AHL Team name the Worcester Team? Should it be the Worcester IceCats regardless of a new NHL affiliation or something new?
Just my opinion, I think it would be outstanding that any new NHL Team use the "Worcester IceCats" team name again as all the players brought so much honor to the jerseys.
Just wondering what you think expesially season ticket holders from the past?

After last night's meeting, I wouldn't expect to see anthing IceCats related. The attitude was "move on." The AHL has suggested that we "start fresh."
That brings me to the point of: Everything that has been done by the involved parties (City, DCU, SMG) has been done by the book with AHL blessing. The group went to the AHL and worked side by side with them continually asking "what do we have to do," doing it, and getting league approval. Ticketing, Marketing, Areana and lease, you name it. |

Most new teams have a "name that team" contest. One ownership group that was coming at one time thought that it would be best to move on with a new name, but if the fans wanted "IceCats", he wouldn't have an issue with it. |

If a new owner were to keep "IceCats" there would probably be a change in the team's colors.... |

The "IceCats" team name was so cool, I wish the new AHL team that might move to Worcester would renew the name. Both the name and the team colors were awesome actually, but I can't see them being brought back, which is a shame. I miss them. |

I'd love to see the "Worcester Warriors" just like the old EHL team from the 1950's. To go a step further it would be awesome to see a royal blue jersey with a giant white and silver "W" on the front of the jersey. |

Just tossing out my 2 cents....of names and stuff...my friends and family (and even those who dont care about it) all keep telling me they think "IceCats" as a name was one of the best. |

I enjoy the IceCats name and logo as much as everyone else does, but I don't expect to see it return. A new team with a new name and logo will sell lots of T-shirts, hats, jerseys, etc. If the IceCats logo is revived we would simply wear all of our old IceCats stuff to the games and the new team would not sell as much merchandise. I do hope that the Scratch mascot will return even if the IceCats name and logo do not. If there is a new team with a new name I hope it is not something stupid like "Roxx" or "Xtreme". |

I think Frank has a great idea..."Warriors" would be cool. |

Just my opinion, but I think that the name should change. The IceCats are done, and I agree with the AHL in that Worcester has to move on. As much as I loved the IceCats (both the team and the name - I was at the first and last games), I just think that it's time for a different team name. We've all been through a lot with the loss of the IceCats, I would personally like a fresh start.
First thing's first - let's get a team in Worcester!! |

Everyone start sending in your sugestions for a new Team name to this Message Board. As much as I like the IceCats and Team Colors not to mention Scratch was the best Mascot in the AHL, but Big Mikes post above is right, we need to support the new Team and buy new Jerseys, T-shirts, Hats etc.
Above you will see a E-mail from WildCats11, you know Wild Cats sounds good for a new team too, just a thought if either the word "ICE" or "Cats" were part of any new name would be cool and help keep some name recognition.
