90s to Now Series

Decided to do a mini-series inspired by the Mariners "Past Meets Present" scheme. However, the reverse applies to this series, as I am taking the best/most infamous sports logos of the 90s and giving them a modern color refresh, rather than the other way around. I'm starting off with the NHL, before moving onto the NBA, and MLB (I'm skipping the NFL because the league significantly lacks iconic "90s" logos and colors).

 

With regard to the NHL series, the logos featured are the only ones that had noticeable color changes. In my opinion, the Blues and Canucks old logos with their new color schemes look the best while the old Capitals logo looks the worst with its new scheme.

 

Hope you enjoy this series!

MY OPINIONS:

BEST: The ducks one is really good. Looks sharp!

WORST: Capitals. It's a red overkill. 

UNIQUE: Jets/Thrashers. It looks really cool with the Jets colours! I do want to see more grey though.

WEIRDEST: Buffalo. It has a robot look which would look good on a white jersey but not a blue jersey.

LOGOS THAT SHOULD BECOME THE REAL ONE:

Rangers, Blues, Kings, Ducks

The NBA has officially been completed as well. Although there aren't as many as the NHL, as there haven't been nearly as many color changes, there are still a solid ten teams that I worked with. My favorites have to be the Vancouver Grizzlies logo given Memphis' color scheme and the NJ Nets logo given the Brooklyn color scheme. Easily the ugliest/worst is the Sonics' 90s logo paired with the Thunder's already ugly colors.

Finally, I've added the MLB logos. Once again, not as many changes as the NHL or NBA due to few logo color changes. Out of these eight teams, I'd have to say the best is the Devil Rays given the modern Rays colors. The worst is the Florida Marlins logo given the Miami colors (it's just so ugly).

 

Also, I decided to try and do one more series for the MLS, so this will not be the last one.

To close off the series, although I know most of you don't follow the MLS, I decided to give it a shot. My favorite has gotta be the Dallas Burn given FC Dallas' colors and in all honesty all of the logos look pretty damn good with their color changes.
