Unless a group pops up in Reno to bring a new team there, they're not changing their ECHL affiliate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite being in the same state as the Vegas teams, the area still lines up a LOT better with the SF Bay Area. Northern Nevadans mostly hate Southern Nevada, and due to how absolutely empty the state is, they don’t really mix together all that often like you would see with other rival cities. Same with Sacramento. I can't tell how many times I've met people coming to town for Kings games or SacRepublic. There's a big disconnect between Reno and Las Vegas. They'd probably just as well chant Beat LV as nor cal is Beat LA. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaha32 Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 The draft sketch is much better than the final product actually, because the dark gray in the draft gave the horse’s cheeks and nose area better definition. That detail seems to have been removed in the final version leaving it awkward in places.

Ridleylash Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The sharper lines really help the logo, in my opinion. Definitely an upgrade. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinsUp1214 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 Sharper lines and a little bit of simplification really helped it out. In my opinion, this is a successful “less is more” effort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 I think it's pretty bad. The LHJMQ/QMJHL is referred to, for obvious reasons, as <<le Q>> or "the Q." Why, then, would you make the most important letter in the abbreviation read even less as a Q than it already did? This looks like an O that happens to connect to the underline, or maybe a lowercase g. I've always dug the Q's logo for making a hockey skate out of all those letters, but if you're going to redesign it, go all out and build around a letter Q. 2 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoE38_Concepts Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 The skate blade part looks off to me. It looks like it's stuck in mud and you can only see part of it. I think they should have kept an extra line underneath to straighten it out. 1 Quote @noe38concepts (Instagram - Twitter) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthStar74 Posted June 1, 2020 Share Posted June 1, 2020 That new logo certainly is okay but I have to wonder the Q needs to be showcased more on emphasis? But it's a good improvement.. 1 Quote Ice Hockey International Winnipeg Braves (Bobby Hull Division 18-3-0 1st place as of March 14, 2011)2010-11 O'Brien Trophy for Bobby Hull Division championship & Jack Riley Cup for top team in league regular season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have a name that's so unwieldy in two languages that it goes by one letter, then yes. There's also an argument for using a different color than the OHL's shade of blue, but that's tough because Quebec should have dibs on blue. I do like the idea of the three component leagues of the CHL being color-coded. 1 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like the idea of the three component leagues of the CHL being color-coded. I've also always liked that idea, but it would only really make a difference on graphics and the colour of the league websites. Then you get to the Canada-Russia Super Series where all three leagues wear (the WHL's colours of) red and black, I assume to play up the Canada aspect, so the league colours get thrown out the window there.

Right right right, the Dub, the O, and the Q. I like that, but I think one league demands the one-letter nickname more than the other two, no? 1 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rorinator Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Not really that happy about the name, but at least the valley will have sports since the Palm Springs Angels left. Really liked Cody Chretien's idea but it might've been confusing since we're not affiliated with Arizona and their Kachina. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Guess mine is the unpopular opinion, because I think this is a downgrade across the board. The new blade reads less like a skate, and downplaying the diagonal makes the Q look more like an O. Quote The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

king_mahalo Posted June 5, 2020 Share Posted June 5, 2020 seems like a ridiculous argument. How many teams out there are called the Wildcats, or the Bears, or Bulldogs, or Tigers? Nobody will be confusing an OHL team in Flint with an AHL team in Palm Springs, CA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
