Heres the Houston Aeros' AHL Western Conference Champions banner from last season. Pretty clean looking. Could have done without the Wild logo at the bottom, but since the Wild owners also own the Aeros now, i guess they want to leave their mark on the team that they built. The banner does stand out from the previous Aeros banners at Toyota Center. All blue and white and then a brand new green one. I'm not wishing the change the old ones though as each one of the banners represents the team's look at the time and the Wild had nothing to do with any of the previous titles.

yeah they've been doing that for some time. Yup. Here is Von Miller's A&M Big 12 South Division Champs ring next to a A&M class ring

I didn't see any of the cowboys' super bowl banners hanging in the new stadium.

The Astros banner from 2001 just says champions. Because they won the tie-breaker over the cards

When did they retire Gordie's number? I must have missed that last time i was in the Toyota Center. To the right of Gordie's number you can see part of the Aeros' championship banners that are similar to the Penguins'. The banner on the left is for one of their Avco Trophy championships back in the WHA days.

Here are some pics i found of banners back in the Astrodome before the oilers moved. and here is a pic i found looking on google from 1999 which was the Astros final season in the dome. You can see the retired jerseys and part of the 1997 and 1998 central division champions banners

Here are the Astros retired numbers. They just put them by the score board this season. The seemed to have used a generic number font as opposed to the current jersey font

I always liked the "triple-championship" banner idea, but what would they do if they won another cup in a year where they didn't win the division? It would look pretty weird to have a double-championship banner next to the triples. The Houston Aeros have a similar banner design from when they won the Turner Cup near the end of the IHL days. I have a pic of it but it is all blurry and low quality so I'll try to find a better one. The Toyota Center is a rather dark arena and the banners are pretty high up there so theres not much light to get a good pic.
