The_Admiral Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 The unused Nordiques logo is awful and wildly inappropriate for a city whose defining characteristic is being really really old. 10 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, the Nordiques nearly changed logo shortly before they moved to Denver. I think the husky is definitely a great idea for the Nordiques, but this logo need a massive update. Definitely a great idea for a shoulder patch if the classic "N" igloo becomes the crest. In case if they're back. Speaking of unused logos with a husky in them, the QMJHL's Rouyn-Noranda Huskies were originally the Rouyn-Noranda Blizzards for a couple of months but changed the name shortly before the team's first season (a college elsewhere in the province was using the name and raised a fuss). https://ici.radio-canada.ca/nouvelle/744493/huskies-blizzards-hockey-lhjmq-20e-rouyn-noranda 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 Always gotta wonder how long Rouyn-Noranda can hang on in the dear old LHJMQ. Town and arena look like something out of Slap Shot, but more so. I'd hate to see them wind up in another suburb of Montreal; who will keep Val d'Or company?

Have there been any reports of the Huskies being in trouble, or are you just looking at the fact that it's an older arena and an out-of-the-way town and deciding to speculate that they're not long for the world? - Rouyn-Noranda's attendance was better than four other QMJHL teams last season (Gatineau, Bathurst, Baie-Comeau, Val-d'Or.) - If we eliminated the towns and arenas in the Q that look like something out of Slap Shot, you'd have about six teams left. - Teams in the Montreal area have a pretty poor track record in the Q (Laval, Longueuil, Verdun, Mtl Rocket, Saint-Jean). Blainville is barely hanging on. Trois-Rivieres is renovating its arena; if anyone were to move, it would probably be there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsd1996475 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Recently I ran across what was advertised by Lelands Auctions as a 1961 Mets prototype. I tried to submit this to Uni-Watch, but since it has nothing to do with socks, vacation slides, selling random stuff with a Uni-Watch logo on it, or a story about a couple liking two different football teams living in the same house (Oh - the novelty!), they weren't interested. I was wondering if anyone can verify this or had any information on this. Looks too Yankees to be considered seriously to me, but I could very well be wrong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time it surfaced at auction. I want to say that the consensus was it wasn't for the Mets, but I can't remember specifics. Quote The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

jsd1996475 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Thanks, I figured it couldn't be a Mets jersey. I was perfectly nice in my email to Uni-Watch btw. Although, yes, I'm not a fan of the person who runs that site, I won't elaborate on that here! I don't want to be a person who strays off topic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsd1996475 Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 Not really. You brought up a totally different topic. I replied.

Eastport76 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 (edited) Talking about the Sabres.. Their inaugural road jersey's originally striping were all blue. I glad they changed it because that road had too much blue and addtion of gold helped to balance the colours better on the road.

The prevailing story I hear is that they were changed due to being too close to Toronto. 2 Quote Formerly known as DiePerske Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This jersey leak was from the summer of 2011, and according to this site, the Seahawks redesign was in 2012. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
