SenatorJake Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 (opens parenthesis)The "All-Star Game" should just cease to exist. I love hockey with all my heart, but there's simply no way that I'll be watching that garbage fire down in Nashville. No siree.Maybe replace it with some outdoor games or something because I'm simply not interested in watching my favourite NHL stars participate in a game as closely related to ice hockey as friggin' yo-yo.Hell, perhaps we should just skip the All-Star break entirely so that professional players can join their World Championship squads earlier, if you're at all interested in the sport to begin with.(closes parenthesis) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenatorJake Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 It should also be noted, for the benefit of this thread, that the Winter Classic & World Hockey Championship hockey sweaters are MUCH more interesting than the usual Bauer/Reebok/Adidas athletic-wear tripe that we get with these so-called All-Star Games.

The_Admiral Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Make the All-Star Game a stadium game one year (or the Winter Classic itself) and see how that takes. Just can't do it in one of the years that the NHL is promising Broward County the All-Star Game in exchange for a taxpayer bailout of the Panthers, because the ice would melt, lol. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nash61 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Panthers to get new jerseys and logo?I'm hoping that they use the alternate panther face as a jumping off point. Would look nice on a simplified body. If we get anything 06 related, I'm taking my pitchfork and torch with me on Florida vacation next year.EDIT: How's this?

Morgan33 Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Panthers to get new jerseys and logo?Ugh! There is absolutely nothing wrong with their current logo, it's the uniforms that suck out loud. Why is it every team that got it right the first time has screw up their uniforms and then screw them up even more when trying to fix them...Sorry Nash61 but that's a downgrade... The logo doesn't need updating, period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 the forward leaping panther is a pretty great logo. I'm hoping it stays in some capacity. The Edge jerseys are a hot mess and need to go. Glad to hear they're at least keeping the pimary colors scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Botox Panther up there is weirding me out. The only logo change I'd make is retiring the messy sun-palm-stick and using a variation on the FLA-sun secondary from the JetBlue alts. Cut the A off so that it's not extending beyond the sun, and then you have the double meaning of FL for Florida and FL for Fort Lauderdale, the nearest major city to the swampy outlet mall the Panthers play in. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerslionspistonshabs Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Leaping Panther is fantastic and the palm tree/stick/sun is one the best shoulder logos in the history of the NHL. Their color scheme is great, appealing and suits their identity. A shame to see it go. And unfortunately, whoever's in charge of uniforms down there is obviously not design savvy at all with what we've seen in the recent past.RIP to a great identity.

Rollins Man Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Panthers to get new jerseys and logo?Big mistake. That's one logo that should never be changed. There's just no way they're going to come up with something as good much less better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I could not be more surprised to see these reactions. The Panthers logo is one of my least favorite in the league. It's not horrible, but it's absolutely a product of the 90's. It's overly detailed, has boxy shapes, and poor color balance. An updated version would go a long way. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinsUp1214 Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 I think all that really needs to be done to the Panther is smooth out the lines (make it less jagged) and work on the shading a little. But that's really all it needs, not a total scrapping. As it is, I've always liked it for what it was and like the shape and idea of it. A complete departure would be a huge mistake.I will say this though: something I've always wanted to see Florida try out is a color scheme of hot pink-navy-orangish gold (think Miami Floridians throwback, but navy instead of black). It may sound crazy, but if done tastefully and balanced, I think it'd be great. And very "South Florida", too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-ROY Posted December 10, 2015 Share Posted December 10, 2015 Today's a sad day. The Panthers logo is easily one of the best logos in the league. If they are going to change it, I'd prefer if they went with something along the lines of the Charlotte Bobcats (see below) that follows the line of the Panther head from the alternate a few years back.

Very, very true story. I still think a color change like that would be a route worth taking though. Just something to mix things up and stand out a little; if any franchise needs that, it's Florida.
