The Bridgeport Sound Tigers are reportedly being rebranded as the Bridgeport Islanders.
According to sports writer Andrew Zadarnowski, the AHL Affiliate of the New York Islanders will share their parent's namesake for the 2021-2022 season. He shared the below tweet.
We must point out that Bridgeport is not located on an island, so the very name itself makes little sense. The Sound Tigers name was much better in our opinion, as was their logo. The new logo feels amateur at best, with an odd font choice for the Islanders text, and a very unbalanced overall look.
While the general consensus on Twitter appears to be disapproving, we still decided to make an ice rink concept to show how it might look next season.
