IceHL Voting Schedule

/

Before I get the first poll posted today, I wanted to lay out the schedule for the next six weeks. I'll be posting five new polls a week, which means I'll get some time in there to catch my breath. Each team's poll will be open for seven days.

The following schedule indicates the tentative dates for each team's poll. No date should change by more than a day or two. After this week, polls will primarily be posted Monday through Friday.

  • 7/25 - Boston Colonials 
  • 7/26 - Vancouver Lumberjacks
  • 7/27 - Washington Sentinels
  • 7/28 - Dallas Outlaws
  • 7/30 - New York Guardians
  • 8/3 - Winnipeg Winterhawks
  • 8/4 - North Carolina Nighthawks
  • 8/5 - Saskatoon Sharpshooters
  • 8/6 - Detroit Motorheads
  • 8/7 - Boulder Beasts
  • 8/10 - Tampa Bay Barracudas
  • 8/11 - Alaska Huskies
  • 8/12 - Montreal Olympiques
  • 8/13 - New Orleans Gators
  • 8/14 - Minnesota Mammoths
  • 8/17 - Salt Lake City Scorpions
  • 8/18 - Quebec Armada
  • 8/19 - Regina Renegades
  • 8/20 - Milwaukee Lagers
  • 8/21 - California Wave
  • 8/24 - Hamilton Steelcats
  • 8/25 - Calgary Cavalry
  • 8/26 - Baltimore Blue Crabs
  • 8/27 - Houston Hellcats
  • 8/28 - Atlanta Arsenal
  • 8/31 - Seattle Aviators
  • 9/1 - Chicago Hitmen
  • 9/2 - Edmonton Kodiaks
  • 9/3 - St. Louis Archers
  • 9/4 - Portland Pioneers

This schedule, created at random, is subject to change but the goal is to stick to it as close as possible.

As you'll notice later today when I post the Boston Colonials poll, I'll be doing something different with the voting. After your vote has been cast, you will not be able to view poll statistics. In other words, you won't be able to see which logo has the most votes.

I'm hoping this will cut down on any potential bias in the balloting. Some people tend to look at the voting results before voting so that they can either pick the most popular or least popular one. Doing it this way puts every logo on an even playing field. In addition, no comments will be permitted on the polls. We can discuss them after the final vote has been tallied.

Once a poll has ended, the winning logo will be revealed via the team's very own Icethetics page within a day or two. I'll explain more how that works as time goes on.
