Third Jersey News: WHL Edition

I haven't done a jersey update in some time, and given that the Regina Pats will be wearing new threads during home games on Fridays, now's the time to catch up on the other big third jersey news.  First, the Pats' third jersey, and as you can see in the picture, the Pats decided to keep a sense of tradition, with the crest in front that features the team name in the bars and the alternate logo from the team's previous third jersey in one of the areas divided by the PATS.  The striping isn't anything special, which works well in keeping things clean.

The Edmonton Oil Kings debuted their third jerseys on their opening night game against Calgary, and their template is taken from the Anaheim Ducks' third jersey.  Obviously, the Oil Kings decided to go in a different direction, as they broke out neon green and black, colors that are not part of the Oil Kings' usual scheme.  The logo is also radically different, as it shows a stylized variation of a king with the shoulder patch having the EOK on them.  It's not the greatest, but given the Oil Kings' recent history, something completely different is what the Oil Kings needed to keep things interesting, and their third jersey does that.
