League business

In October 2012 it was announced that the 2013 season would be played with eight teams as the Gold Coast Blue Tongues' licence was suspended due to the team being unable to secure a home venue for 2013.{{cite web |url=http://www.theaihl.com/leagues/newsletter.cfm?clientid=3856&leagueid=11464&page=65057&buffer_share=bfebd |title=The AIHL Will Revert to an 8 Team Competition for 2013 |publisher=Australian Ice Hockey League |first=Ben |last=Kiely |date=2012-10-20 |access-date=2012-10-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131219055050/http://www.theaihl.com/leagues/newsletter.cfm?clientid=3856&leagueid=11464&page=65057&buffer_share=bfebd |archive-date=19 December 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy-all }} The Blue Tongues were forced out of their arena during the 2012 season when the AIHL deemed it to not be up to specifications for the league forcing the team to temporarily relocate to Brisbane for the remainder of the season.{{cite web|url=http://www.icedogs.com.au/blog/2012/10/05/changes-to-dogs-and-aihl-for-2013/comment-page-1/#comment-4350 |title=Changes to Dogs and AIHL for 2013 |publisher=Sydney Ice Dogs |date=2012-10-05 |access-date=2012-10-07 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130116060757/http://www.icedogs.com.au/blog/2012/10/05/changes-to-dogs-and-aihl-for-2013/ |archive-date=16 January 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy }} It was also announced that the suspension on the Sydney Ice Dogs had been lifted allowing the team to ice four imports again. The Ice Dogs were restricted to three for the 2012 season by the league due to breaches of the league's code of conduct. Following the Annual General Meeting (AGM) it was announced that the third period of play has been increased from 15 minutes to 20 minutes, while the first two remain 15 minutes in length. The change was in response to fans calling for the league to align itself with international hockey which plays three 20 minute periods.{{cite web|url=http://hewittsports.com/?p=7370 |title=Fresh faced AIHL for 2013 |publisher=Hewitt Sports Network |first=Andrew |last=Hewitt |date=2012-10-23 |access-date=2012-10-23 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20130629113123/http://hewittsports.com/?p=7370 |archive-date=29 June 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy }} The Melbourne Mustangs revealed their new logo and jerseys for the start of the season featuring a redesigned mustang horse, holding an ice hockey stick.{{cite web|url=http://www.theaihl.com/leagues/newsletter.cfm?clientID=3856&leagueID=11464&page=67966 |title=Mustangs New Logo |publisher=Australian Ice Hockey League |first=Hamish |last=Jones |date=2013-02-07 |access-date=2013-02-10 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130308064652/http://www.theaihl.com/leagues/newsletter.cfm?clientid=3856&leagueid=11464&page=67966 |archive-date=8 March 2013 |url-status=live }} The new jerseys include a white home jersey, a black away jersey and an orange third jersey which is being released as off-ice apparel only.{{cite web|url=http://hewittsports.com/mustangs-adopt-a-new-look-for-2013/ |title=Mustangs adopt a new look for 2013 |publisher=Hewitt Sports Network |access-date=2013-02-23 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131219024902/http://hewittsports.com/mustangs-adopt-a-new-look-for-2013/ |archive-date=19 December 2013 |url-status=live |df=dmy }} The Sydney Ice Dogs also revealed their new jerseys with an aqua green away jersey and a white home jersey. The change in colours was made as part of a deal with corporate naming sponsor Reach Crane Trucks and will be in place for three years, the duration of their deal with Reach Crane Trucks.
