Manitoba Moose Unveil New Alternate Logo, Uniforms

Meaner Moose makes debut

The Manitoba Moose Hockey Club unveiled its new third jersey and third logo during the 2003-04 season-opener on October 11, 2003 against the St. John's Maple Leafs at the Winnipeg Arena.

"We are proud to unveil our third sweater today," said Manitoba Moose President Mark Chipman. "This new jersey will represent our team and fans with class and character while making a stronger statement both on and off the ice."

The new third jerseys are black with green, copper, and white trim on the shoulders and elbows. The collar features a traditional lace-up design below the neck and the numbering has also remained the same. The new third logo features a meaner looking Moose centred on the front of the jersey. A patch commemorating the final year of pro hockey at the Winnipeg Arena appears on the upper left chest. The patch reads, "Building Memories, Building Excitement - 1955-2004".

The third sweater will be worn with solid black pants, a black helmet, and matching socks, which are also predominantly black with green, copper, and white striping at the shins.

The jersey was produced by SP Apparel.

The third jerseys will go on sale to the public at the Off The Rack Store at the Winnipeg Arena, located inside the front entrance of the Arena, beginning at 7:30 p.m. Saturday night.
