The Reforms
Location: Rarely, if ever, here or there, but always in transition

Welcome to the Carlson Center
A hockey helmet will be the least of your problems entering this ice rink, because there is no escaping without your mind being blown (not even the entire planet could withstand the force of this hockey intro).
Or watch it here: Alaska Nanooks 2010 Hockey Intro on Vimeo (an absolute Must that you watch this in HD) To start off: From what century are these raging Alaskan bears awakening? I read a commentary about this intro nearly being denied because it was "too 80s", and I agree. From the Voltron Bears, to these hell-bent beasts dawning Top Gun aviators and pulling off their best SWAT Kats impersonation, all to the soundtrack of Kenny Loggins' only surviving hit, it really is like stepping into a time machine back into the heart of 1987, only to be blown into smithereens for attempting such a moronic feat. (Seriously? College hockey? I forgot you actually existed. Someone, at least, is trying to garner interest.) And there's a disturbing history here: '07-08 season for the Alaska Nanooks '06-07 season -- originally pulled from a feature here
