Prince George, BC –The Prince George Cougars are inviting fans to CN Centre on Wednesday, September 9 at 9:00am, as the team unveils their new jerseys for the upcoming 2009-10 Western Hockey League season.

The Cougars will showcase the new Reebok Edge Jersey in Section C of the concourse at CN Centre. A two minute video will be featured on the centre ice scoreboard explaining how the Edge Design was created, the prototyping process and what tests were conducted to allow Reebok to come up with the most effective design for high level hockey.

A variety of players will be on hand along with new head coach Dean Clark, for a meet and greet with fans. Refreshments will be available. Fans will also get an opportunity to purchase the new uniforms as they will go on sale in the Cougars store immediately following the event. For an added bonus, the first 25 people to buy the new Reebok Edge Jersey will also receive a complimentary Reebok CHL toque.

“This is a great way for the Cougars to kick off the brand new season to our fans,” says Cougars Vice President Brandi Brodsky. “We’re very excited to invite fans and media to the rink to help us unveil our new uniforms and for everyone to meet our new head coach and all the returning players and possibly new Cougars during the meet and greet.”

Didn't they just get new jerseys last year, and but didn't end up wearing them? Are these those ones, or something different?

So I guess it is the one from last year...

Yawn. Wake me when they win a game.
Yes, I, somewhat idiotically, renewed my seasons tickets. Asking myself why, but hope springs eternal in the heart of the optimist.

It's about merchandising. The thought is that people will toss their old jerseys and buy the new ones. NHL teams do this all the time.

What I'm hoping is that they get rid of the wimpy logo that depicts a kitty poking its head playfully out of a cardboard box. The article doesn't mention the logo, but I'm assuming they'll change that too...

A new jersey will not help the Cougars.

As long as Brdosky remains involved, the Cougars will keep on losing, and losing, and losing, and losing, and losing, and losing.

For the very first time, since the Cougars started in the Coliseum, I will not be buying my pack of 10 season tickets for my employees.

Brodsky has to go!!

Time for local ownership
