The Rocky Mountain Rage, the new Central Hockey League team based out of Broomfield, CO, are in their first year of existence. They have a brand new building, a rival they play 12 time this year only 42 miles away, and a mascot that defies description. Oh, and they also have five jerseys.

Five.

First year team.

To start out the season, they had an Away and a Home. Then they added a 3rd, which I think is the best of the bunch.
