GFB Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 8 hours ago, IceCap said: Well the actual 90s logo for the 90s expansion team had a far more restrained logo than that exaggerated cartoon shark, which came out in the 2010s. 8 hours ago, Bayne said: It doesn't have to, but it helps if it does. Ottawa did have a classic logo and everyone loves that. The Mighty Ducks logo is iconic. The leaping Panther (to me) is a classic 90's hockey design, so is the original Dallas Stars logo. Tampa Bay have landed on a pretty simple, clean identity and Minnesota has one of the best logos in the league and looks timeless. Columbus aren't that bad either. All of these teams hockey designs have emerged since the 90's. You're both preaching to the choir in reference to the Sharks, but the original point was comparing the Sharks logo to "classic" hockey and four of the Original Six teams. Nine of the first twelve teams had simple crests depicting inanimate symbols and letters (the exceptions being the Blackhawks, Penguins, and Golden Seals), and that's not really the measuring stick the Sharks should be held to. All of the recent designs Bayne pointed out as "classic" with the exception of Tampa Bay and maybe Dallas are illustrations drawn in a modern style (I would consider most of them to be good logos, just not necessarily "classic hockey" logos). All anyone wants for a Sharks logo is simply a well-illustrated shark and the team is currently batting 0/3 in that category to varying degrees. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealPepman Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The mothership has another evidence that the Flames will go retro in a few weeks: No white outline, unlike last year. Looks like full retro branding for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mothership has evidence: No white outline, unlike last year. Also, their social media accounts, for once, featured the classic C on red background as the primary icon. Check it. I ain't lying. The Coyotes are using the Kachinas as their social media logo and are using them for all their playoff home games, but the graphic is still using the howling coyote logo. Something tells me that it might just be the the normal logo but without the white outline. The yellow looks closer to the modern colors then the retros, too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

browna Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Has it been confirmed, are teams even having two sets of uniforms for hub games? I guess if there was a clash they would, but to save some time, hassle and resources, and with all the things around hub city games and covid precautions means that training staff is working overtime to keep things sanitized, is there a need for the Flames and Jets (or any teams) to change jerseys and pants and socks at all during there series, both teams wearing home darks? My guess is Flames would go with retro red like they did last year for playoffs as long as they can. If they play Chicago or Arizona eventually in the West, one would have to change. And if the Flames did, going white retro would mean they could at least use same pants as ones they wear with retro reds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly sure normal playoff uniform rules apply where teams have to designate certain uniforms as what they're using and stick to them. The Coyotes, for example, are using the Kachina thirds as their designated home uniform, like how Carolina used their thirds as the home playoff jersey last year. I wouldn't be shocked if the Canes go black for the playoffs again, and same with Calgary and the retros. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
