AHL Affiliate Thread - Send them the Wolves

[Chrispy]

For some reason, I recall the Wolves doing an exhibition game vs their NHL affiliate in the past. Maybe we will see a Carolina-Chicago game up in Chicago?

I was out of spaghetti noodles

Just eat your poop al dente, then.

That does make more sense given the ethos of that franchise.

more gross than my suggestion but Im not a fan of al dente.

Preseason schedule has already been released, don’t think they’re playing up there. Maybe it’s a Hurricanes themed 3rd jersey?

Stormy has been traded to Chicago for future considerations.

With BBQ on it

Eastern style. Perhaps topped with slaw. Hush puppie dough for the crust.

Is there no Canes thread that doesn't devolve into a food thread? No? Well done degenerates.

Yes.

Many of them evolve upward into a food thread.

Looks like they figure Rees ain't making the big team out of the gate.

I thought that, too.

Rees: "Hey guys, the Wolves are letting me do the modeling of the new uniform!"
Guys: "I got Rees as first cut. Who wants some of that action?"
Rees: "...."

How is this storm related?

 

[AD Skinner]

Too drab. I liked the burgundy and yellow better as it was. Also I wish these videos would just let you see the doggone thing

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

My first thought is that looks like the VGN's AHL team.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I thought it was fine. Not the best, not the worst. Guess they were going for like a stormy gray. Even though they have their own branding would have been nice to see something more of a nod to the Canes.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

What the f*** even is that? What storm? What?

 

[UncMike]

Well the roster is starting to fill up now that Carolina is making assignments……

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Well the roster is starting to fill up now that Carolina is making assignments……

It should be a pretty stacked roster. Only to get more stacked with Seeley and Jarvis added before the playoffs. Maybe a European prospect too.
