motor city squire Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 i gave the home uniforms a blue helmet to reflect the early years of the team (while most wore no helmet, those that did wore blue).~k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 The NHL does not allow teams to where a colored helmet with their white jerseys. It would be confusing on TV.I like these, but until the Isles fix there joke of a logo, I don't think that I'll ever be able to truly dig on a concept that uses it. Obviously not your fault, it's just such a bad logo IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See Red Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 I don't understand the hatred for the fisherman logo.And while their current logo does not make them look 'minor league-ish', I can find atleast 5 teams in my friends' little brothers pee wee hockey league that have a better logo.

Magus Posted July 26, 2004 Share Posted July 26, 2004 i hated the fisherman logo and the disaster of a jersey.thankfully they went back to there old logo and unis with modernization mods.while i do think they could use a new logo, its better than the disaster of a mess they had for a couple of years.

Stampman Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 They're a little bland, but I still like them.And I think that logo is a good one--I've always liked it, and never liked the Fisherman--made me think of fish sticks, not hockey.As for the lighthouse logo--I have nothing against a lighthouse, but that logo they had was too "Swirly"--it didn't look solid, like a lighthouse should...

IceCap Posted July 27, 2004 Share Posted July 27, 2004 the fisherman ruled! and so did the lighthouse. the only thing wrong with the fisherman jersey was the stripping. take the fisherman jersey, straighten up the stripping, and u have one nice jersey set. but no. the islanders had to ditch 2 perfectly good logos and revert back to the 2nd worst logo in the nhl.

Mings Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 i'd redesign the logo and then try making a jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pflava Posted July 29, 2004 Share Posted July 29, 2004 You know, there is nothing wrong with the current Islanders logo! It's beautifully imperfect, and I'd take it any day over the cartoonish, minor league logos many of you guys seem to love. And yes, that includes the fisherman monstrosity and that stupid, dull lighthouse logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
