I think I remember seeing some teams use fictional uniforms if they were a relatively new team to the league.
Good possibility, given that it has a sewn-on felt patch. I believe every other team in this recent era has their insignias embroidered directly into the cap. So the cap in question is indeed more in line with a throwback or a fictitious/contrived piece. Good theory!
