The fighter jet came to me because its been done before, its a (dated) local connection, and Foley is a huge military otaku.

Will the logo be influenced by military design elements? I think we all see that writing on the wall, but I think the logo may be more of a military-patch inspired look, with an actual hawk, not a jet, as the focal point.

bowld Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Told my wife the team name might have the word Night in it and they are also talking about a bird. No joke, without even thinking she says.. Why would a pro team call themselves the Nightingale's. Lets hope she isnt on to something here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

worcat Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 oh cool so now vegas will play military dress up like the panthers? FML, this is lame. Vegas better not go down this rabbit hole. They had a chance to do something out of the box and special. Nighthawks!? just F*** everything! Throw it all in the toilet. I wanted the Vegas team to be a success but if they start off with a :censored:ty name then I wish them the worst. Whether the design be a hawk or a jet, I don't give a :censored:. This guy needs to lose his rambo mentality and think of what the league and fans would want. Cool you have a hard on for the military but get over yourself.

wildwing64 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Not allowed Black Knights so they're going to ape the Blackhawks instead. Cue the whole North Stars thing and we'll inevitably end up with no less than three pairs of teams with basically the same name. Yay!

hawk36 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 Good point. If the NHL allows Nighthawks and Black Hawks, then they shouldn't have a problem with the Stars and North Stars. Design Hovie Studios Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JQK Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 The hyperbolic over-reactions in this thread are amazingly entertaining. Nothing has been chosen, let alone a logo even hinted at, yet "THUS IS DA WURST TING TO EVAH HAPPEN TOO HOCKEY IN DA HISTORY OV EVAH!!!" Hahahahahaha... Hot Take City, man...
