Along with their campaign schedule, the club announced a new logo and jerseys to further align with their parent club in New York.

Unlike the previous incarnation, the logo also features a “Bridgeport” wordmark on top of the team’s name. The logo also uses less teal and more royal blue, orange, and gray.

The rest of the jersey remains unchanged. Moving to the schedule, the team previously announced their season opener will be at home against the Providence Bruins on Oct. 12. Common opponents on the slate include the Wilkes-Barre Scranton Penguins, Hartford Wolf Pack, and the Springfield Thunderbirds.
