NHL Anti-Thread: Bad Business Decision Aggregator
Hathaway Browne replied to The_Admiral's topic in Sports In General
I know this is a bit far fetched, but humour me. ('cause you need a little comic relief every now and then). Sitting pondering today, I thought of this scenario... Picture it, Quebec, June 2016. Bettman walks out on the ice to present the Nouveau-Nordiques with the Cup. You can hear the boos from here. Just a wall of sound, in English and French. (Not saying it'd actually happen, but it'd certainly put a smile on my face after this huge debacle.) -

Might have been asked before, but any hurdles on potential new names for a Seattle team? As an example from above - does anyone in the area own the "Totems" nickname? Not that they'd use it, but what if they wanted to use 'Pilots'; would they have to get permission from MLB? -

Apparently, yes according to this map: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Coyote_subspecies_distribution_map.svg There's a specific subspecies - the Northwest Coast Coyote. -

Wouldn't it be great if the 'Seattle Coyotes' emulated the Pilots and had their moving trucks re-routed (this time to Quebec instead of Milwaukee)? Cruel I know. -

But sooner or later they start monologing long enough to be brought down. -

Glad to see there might just be a little more progress with this saga at long last. I know I'm talking hypothetical here, but what would happen (now the 'sale' of the team has fallen through), if the owners of Jobbing just locked the team out, would the league require them to continue to play at some hastily arranged venue or do they just cease to compete until the situation is resolved (ie. move to Quebec *cough*) ? -

I love that glass top deck, not that you'd probably see much of the skyline from ice level, but its a nice touch. -

That was a brilliant identity all-around. Shame that it was relatively short-lived. Shame they could make that into some sort of secondary logo for the Noveau-Nords. Did they have a mascot before? if not I think we've got a contender. -

Sorry to ask a question that's probably been debated infinitum already, but going on the basis that this 'Plan B' pans out in Quebec's favour, just how does it work with the nickname? We had the 'will-they-won't-they' with the Jets return, but as with Winnipeg, I can't see them returning to Quebec as anything but the Nordiques. Would the new owners just have to negotiate with the Avalanche for the use of the name? 'course the next question after that is.. will they keep the igloo logo? -

According to this article Markham has queue jumped Quebec as potential home for the Coyotes... http://www.thehockeynews.com/articles/43507-Campbell-Leafs-sale-is-one-step-closer-to-having-second-NHL-team-in-Toronto.html -

I guess that would be the easy way in due to them just relocating in the same territory, although would they keep the Islanders moniker? I suppose it could still work, but just like the Winnipeg relocation surely a return to the old name would be popular? I wonder what it'd take to get the Whalers name back, do Carolina still own all that? -

Hmm.. I can see they've got their reasons, but I think now is the perfect time to shut up and get the place built. The longer they wait, the more chance Quebec has of being gazumped by some other city. -
If I need a white outline, depending on the image, I always just duplicate the outermost shape send it to the back and change the line width so it shows up from behind. Probably not the correct way, but worth a try.

Anyone have an idea what this "Travel Agency" font is? Or what the closest to it is?

I'm guessing this is probably a custom job, but are there any likeness to these:

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but does anyone know of a Formula 1 car template?

Any ideas on this '60's looking font? http://bp1.blogger.com/_2sYXHRFeJNk/R_k3qO...own1800x600.jpg
