I'd lose the silver keyline now, though, come to think of it. Pretend it's not there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 I think if you took the original 6 logos and placed the original Sharks logo in the middle of the line up, it would not look out of place. The new one would however ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sharks logo is evidently a product of the 90's, much like all of the O6 logos are products of their respective times. 2 hours ago, Thomas said: Will the Penguins new uniform for next season be the same as this season's 3rd jersey, anyone know ?

It's a very 90's cartoony concept to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFGiants58 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 @Go Red Sox! made a wonderful concept to demonstrate the best way for the Sharks to shed the stick-choker: I like how there's no black and orange, and only fantastic contrasting teal shades and silver.

Again, it's a product of a different time and a concept that doesn't fit with the O6 teams at all. However, losing the stick would bring the old logo a bit closer to that territory.

Or just go with the original and much better San Jose Sharks logo... If the stick bothers you so much take it out, but this is not a better logo in any stretch of the imagination.

It's pretty obvious the original logo fits in more with the original NHL logos. Hell it is actually quite close to the Blackhawk logo. Same black with white outlines, similar use of a geometric shape to help the design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new shark is awful in comparison. We're talking logos from the 1920's and 30's versus a concept conceived in 1991. It's pretty obvious that the Sharks logo does not fit in with logos from the dinosaur era of hockey. The answer is still neither. Just because if doesn't "fit" with the O6 teams doesn't make one Sharks logo better or worse than the other. Again, I have no preference either way. One's a modern classic and the other is a solid update of the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if you compare the current Blackhawks logo to the original Sharks logo, i think it would be hard for a non sports/logo expert to tell which logo is from 1965 and which one is from 1991. I think the Sharks did a good job creating a classic looking logo, in their first try no less ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually really like that logo and the panther is rendered amazingly well. Only problem, not sure I like it for the Florida Panthers NHL team...

The debate was if one shark logo fits in better than the other. I posted the examples and the answer is one or the other. He could have answered the new Shark. But refusing to give an answer is weak.
