To help commemorate their 30th year in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League (MJHL), the Neepawa Natives are going back to a look that harkens back to their first year. The junior “A” club has confirmed that the team colours for the 2018-2019 season will be silver, black and white. The style of the sweater will also be altered to match the NHL’s Los Angeles Kings. From 1989-1999, the Natives wore the L.A. Kings style sweaters, before converting to the Chicago Blackhawk style, which has been used in some variation since.
