Webhamster Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 The Senators' 25th anniversary logo is for... the season after next? There's a whole lotta "What the hell are you doing, Ottawa" from top to bottom here.There's a whole celebration year in Ottawa in 2017, it being the 150th anniversary of Canada itself. Releasing the branding a season early to tie in to the whole "Ottawa 2017" campaign is smart. The logo is crap, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still MIGHTY Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I think (much like Montreal did for its 100th) it's probably a combination of 25th year of operation and 25th season of play. Use of the word "anniversary" is obviously wrong with that, but we're long down that rabbit hole a sports community. Toothpaste ain't going back into that tube.As far as the actual logo, hot flaming garbage. Horrible.Also, can't forget the French version: | ANAÂ | LAA | LARÂ | LAL | ASU | CSULB |Â USMNTÂ | USWNT |Â LAFCÂ | OCSC |Â MAN UTDÂ | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan33 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Doesn't exactly instill me with confidence that they will ever fix their disastrous 2007 re brand. That 3D centurion looked dated the second it was released... The chrome treatment adds a bold underline to this reality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartacat_12 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 The worst part of this logo is that it means we're stuck with the primary logo (and most likely uniforms) for another 2 seasons at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see the red uniform being an improvement over the "Toga" but the white road an improvement over this? Respectfully disagree. I really think this uniform needs to come back with the matching black counterpart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin W. Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 They should have used the 2000 black alternate as a base for the Edge jerseys. The 3D centurion is better than the 2D.

I really think this uniform needs to come back with the matching black counterpart.Their very first set may very well be the Senators' best look. I hated when they added white to the black jersey. I wouldn't be mad against bringing something similar back using the updated 2d logo. That includes the S-wing (?) shoulder logo.As for the anniversary logo, I'm guessing that isn't the actual patch they will put on the jersey and more just for putting on banners and posters, which would be kinda okay. Speaking of their anniversary, it would be a perfect time to make a jersey switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-kj Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Let me rephrase: The Senators' 2007 rebrand produced a superior set of logos. That original logo? A joke. The jerseys... no. But I'll take them over the originals; the color balance was terrible on both of them. This is really the only particularly good jersey they've had (if you ignore the terrible Peace Tower shoulder logo): Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

Sport Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 it bothers me they introduced the profile circular logo, which is perfect for a jersey shoulder and instead they use the less good barberpole O. The logos now are better than they logos were. It's that they still use that stupid jersey template when barberpole is right there for the taking, a look they could own and stand out from the NHL's deluge of red and black teams and they still choose not to that bothers me so much.
