Sport Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 When I was a kid I thought it was hilarious how they used the literal team's logo for their captain's C. They should've never stopped. It's a quality bit. 4 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should've never stopped. It's a quality bit. I originally thought the logo as the captain's C was something the started with and then abandoned because they thought it was too much. But looking through the Flames captaincy history, here's a picture from the first season of the pedestals in 94-95, because Nieuwendyk is the captain, and then from the last season of the pedestals in 99-00 with Steve Smith as the captain. Then here are pictures of Fleury in 94-95 and then either 97-98 or 98-99. So the pedestals started out with neither the flaming-C or the Atlanta A for the captain letters, then had both, then dropped the flaming-C (I assume because they thought it was too much). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-mer Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Has anyone ever put the Canadiens’ or Canucks’ logos as their captains patch too? Lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Not to Canuck jack the thread, but one thing that really bothered me about the old uniforms with the script is how overloaded with 'C's the Canucks uniforms became. Including the manufacturer's logos, there are 11 Cs in various forms visible in this picture of Henrik Sedin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin W. Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Maybe I'm dumb, but I only count 9.. There are two orcas, three sticks-in-rink, two in the CCM logo and one each for Vancouver and the captain's C. Mighty Ducks of Anaheim (CHL - 2018 Orr Cup Champions) Chicago Rivermen (UBA/WBL - 2014, 2015, 2017 Intercontinental Cup Champions) King's Own Hexham FC (BIP - 2022 Saint's Cup Champions) Portland Explorers (EFL - Elite Bowl XIX Champions) Real San Diego (UPL) Red Bull Seattle (ULL - 2018, 2019, 2020 Gait Cup Champions) Vancouver Huskies (CL) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a CCM logo on the helmet as well, and you can barely make out the 2 C's in this photo. Thank god he's not wearing CCM gloves as well.

DTConcepts Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Gonna add to the C discourse by saying that the Avs should use their secondary logo as a captain patch. 4 1 1 1 "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeypower Posted March 30, 2022 Share Posted March 30, 2022 Just kind of a neat thing I noticed on tonight's Ducks broadcast. Peep the water bottle labels. Appears to be Getzlaf's water bottle. The linesman used Fowler's water bottle to fix some ice a bit later and that bottle has current branding labels. Kind of odd it's Getzlaf when he was always one rumored, and maybe said as much I can't recall, to not like the Mighty Ducks (unless that's the joke where they gave him a Mighty Ducks one to mess with him). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason the foot was there in the first place because their original mascot was a yeti named Howler. But Howler hasn't been a thing for the Avs for like two decades now; he was retired in the early 2000's, and their mascot since 2009 has been Bernie the St. Bernard...so the foot logo no longer really ties into their branding at all; hence why they got rid of it to begin with. Besides, the shoulder C's are a nice little homage to the Hockey Rockies, as well, and you could also say it's like how the Nordiques had the provincial symbol of Québec on the shoulders of their jerseys, too, if you want to tie into franchise history. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glover Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 Hurricanes with white jerseys and black pants tonight. Would certainly look better if the jersey had more black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 I kinda like the black pants. Gives the uniform a bit more of a balanced color palette. 4 1 "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
