GriffinM6 1,372 Posted July 23, 2020 Disappointed at the name, but love the logo and color scheme. I must say though, that wordmark font would look great for the Baltimore Ravens 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SFGiants58 14,182 Posted July 23, 2020 Well, twenty year cycle. They join the Wild in the “horrible name, but amazing logo and uniforms” club. It took twenty years for another name this trash heapy. 19 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1908_Cubs 222 Posted July 23, 2020 Blech. Logo is cool. Uniform is...fine? I mean, it's not garish, fine. But major swing and miss at what they had. They had a beautiful salmon and it's a tertiary, barely there color. Dark colored uniform. There were better options out there. The uniform isn't bad...but it's a miss from me. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ridleylash 4,012 Posted July 23, 2020 I'm so dissapointed, honestly. The jerseys look sick, but uuuuugh, the name is such a terrible choice. Sounds like a minor-league club or some kind of roller hockey team, not a professional sports franchise. It doesn't even have any local connection, it's just trying way too hard to be "cool". 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TrueYankee26 1,121 Posted July 23, 2020 I can see the S logo being worn on so many rapper's hats. It will be the new White Sox or Raiders when it comes to gear being worn by hardcore rappers. 6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FinsUp1214 5,663 Posted July 23, 2020 Logo, colors, and uniform? Awesome. The name, though? This may be the biggest discrepancy between the quality of name and rest of identity that I can recall; yes, more so than “Wild”. For them to pick “Kraken”, they absolutely HAD to knock everything else out of the park to get by, and to thier credit, they really did. But yikes, the name. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maroon 532 Posted July 23, 2020 The sweater is slick. The logo is good. I get that Kraken is very meme-ish and the explanation behind why that's not good, but I'm having a hard time understanding why a giant mythological squid is a bad hockey team nickname. I mean, Kraken rum is decent and their branding doesn't seem terrible. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeauxColonels 733 Posted July 23, 2020 I like it. Really digging that secondary anchor logo with the space needle worked in. Nicely done. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
