The Lake Erie Monsters are no more. Well the team will remain the same and in the same place but they will now be called the Cleveland Monsters.

Those sweaters have a definite Cavalier vibe too them, as the team is trying to embrace itself fully into Cleveland. Its fun what happens when two teams in the same city win championships. Hopefully for the Blue Jackets sake this new found winning tradition continues.
