IOWA WILD UNVEILS ALTERNATE JERSEY

New Sweaters Will Be Auctioned Off After the Season To Benefit American Heart Association

DES MOINES, IA – The Iowa Wild, proud American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the NHL’s Minnesota Wild, on Monday unveiled the team’s third jersey.

Iowa adds a dominant red jersey to go with the team’s already strong white and powerful green sweaters. The new jersey is similar to the Minnesota Wild’s primary red jersey – Iowa’s NHL affiliate. The red jersey has Iowa’s secondary logo emblazoned on the front with the words “Iowa” above the logo and “Wild” below the logo. The jersey has shades of dark green and “Wild wheat” on the sleeves and shoulders. All jersey numbers will also be in “Wild wheat”. Iowa will wear green helmets and green pants with the alternate jersey. The gloves are primarily green with small shades of red. The team socks are a dominant red with one green and “Wild wheat” stripe.

The team will debut the jersey on Saturday, Oct. 24 when it hosts the Texas Stars at 7 p.m. at Wells Fargo Arena. Iowa is expected to wear the jersey at least 10-12 times at home this year. At the end of the season, the team will auction the jerseys off to benefit the American Heart Association.
