wheateater Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 I mentioned my intent to do this in the "Which NHL Logo Should Be Brought Back?" thread yesterday. I suggested the Kings return to their old logo only as an alternate and use the same colour scheme, but use their present jersey pattern, as well. So here goes...Comments and yada, yada, yada, would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LMU Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 These are really nice. The only thing though is that I thought LA ditched silver and black when the Traitors (Raiders) ran away with their tails between their legs. Then again, most of LA still considers themselves as part of the Traitor Nation, so these might just fit in. And, I do like the recolored shoulder patches. Good work.

-kj Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Eh, it doesn't work for me. Mostly because that logo was awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralW91 Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Comments and yada, yada, yada, would be appreciated. Jerry:You yada yada yada'd over the best part!!Elaine:No, I mentioned the bisk.Sorry, I had to get that in there. About the Uniforms, I agree with Mockba. If was going to use that logo, I'd change the font, the Kings chose an awful font for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magus Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 very nice. i like the logo because it brings back the days of Wayne Gretzky and the only year they were serious contenders for the cup. It also incorporates their current jersey design, which i like. 2 thumbs up from the solo thrashers fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's almost as bad as the X-Men movies using Arial Bold for their posters & DVD covers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ez Street Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Man, i have forever hated that damn logo. I don't care if it is associated with "The Great One", it's just a bad logo. BLAH!Nice concept though, it has that throwback look, yet is current. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheateater Posted August 19, 2004 Author Share Posted August 19, 2004 Thanks for the comments guys. As a Kings fan, I am required to like the logo. All I can say is that any logo the Kings have used or will use in the future is a hundred times better than whatever crap their cross-town rivals come up with (thank you, Disney ).

wheateater Posted August 19, 2004 Author Share Posted August 19, 2004 How about this one? Is this logo better suited for the jersey, or no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Nah, it's too monochrome. I really like their current look, except for the way the name/number look on the dark jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchie Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 If you're gonna go Retro, why not mix the best of all worlds and bring back the Original logo:CC's Logosor the crown alone:CC's Logo #2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Well, the problem there was that they were queens' crowns forever, not kings'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klasticono Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 I like the current logo. I think they should ditch the silver for metallic gold and keep the current scheme relatively intact (also, kill the stupid "Los Angeles" script on the bottom of the sweaters). I heard the black and silver look of the early 90s was under heat because of kids associating it with gangs or something stupid like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winters in buffalo Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 current kings set rocks solidly. I was never a fan of the silver/black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stpmn Posted August 20, 2004 Share Posted August 20, 2004 Do we all agree the "Los Angeles" has to go at the bottom of the sweater? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
