Survival79 Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Relax, guys, it's not as bad as it sounds. Go read my article:http://www.sportslogos.net/article.php?n_id=30Hmm... I'm not as skeptical or concerned as before. An updated shield could be nice. "If things have gone wrong, I'm talking to myself, and you've got a wet towel wrapped around your head."

yh Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 I still say leave it alone. I just can't see the tweaks as being necessary or an improvement over a simple, two color logo that's worked for pretty much the last 8 decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJR Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Relax, guys, it's not as bad as it sounds. Go read my article:http://www.sportslogos.net/article.php?n_id=30Hmm... I'm not as skeptical or concerned as before. An updated shield could be nice. I'm still skeptical. It's change for the sake of change. What the hell is wrong with what we have now? I like what we have now and so do a lot of other people. Will I stop watching the NHL if it has a new logo? Of course not. I'm just tired of things that have a tradition being tossed away because it can be.

Survival79 Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Will I stop watching the NHL if it has a new logo? Of course not.That is precisely why they know they can change it. I'm all for tradition, but right now I'm not going to get all fired up about a "possible" modification to the league logo when there might not even be a league at all next year.

IceCap Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 only one thing needs to be done to the nhl logo: use the black and silver version full time. its a perfect update of a perfect desighn. also, if ur leauge logo isnt r,w, & b, no team in ur leauge should share colours with the leauge (see nhl & flyers). use the silver and black sheild and u have a unique, classic sheild that dosnt share a colour combination with a team.

wheateater Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Someone should really go and smack Bettman upside the head for this one. I mean, doesn't he have bigger fish to fry? Like Goodenow?Geez, I had a feeling it was a bad thing when the NHL hired a New York lawyer to run the damn thing. Now I bet Clarence Campbell is spinning in his grave...

DEAD! Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 I wouldn't mind the silver and black look, because I have been used to that for sometime, better than the 'puck' logo. But I'd rather keep the logo as is. It's unique and easily recognisable I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesCraven Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 It should be pointed out if you look very closely at the logo on the authentic jerseys, pants and helmets, ther logo is silver and black, with silver replacing the orange elements of the NHL shield. See it on nhluniforms.com in the 2000's category if you don't believe me.

winters in buffalo Posted August 9, 2004 Share Posted August 9, 2004 Gives me an idea for a contest... since the league's hard at work on a logo, design a new collective bargaining argreement.Keep it professional - use blue or black crayons only.

Notch Novelty Posted August 10, 2004 Share Posted August 10, 2004 Everyone watch out for your team. It could change. I could see Toronto being known as Southern Ontario Leafs to rep the Southern Half of the Providence with everything including the name. Sabres become Western New York Sabres to rep half the state.I'm really surprised the league hasn't introduced Jerry West type logo.It's called tradition, somethings you don't change and the NHL logo is it!

Turtle64 Posted August 14, 2004 Share Posted August 14, 2004 I've always wondered why they put the orange & black shield on the replicas and the silver & black shield on the pro jersey's. Maybe they have been trying to slowly faze it in. I could be wrong. I say stay with tradition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
