It's quite simple, really; the team is doing what its fanbase wants them to do like any competent business does. Calgary fans want Blasty around and keep buying Blasty merchandise, hence why the team's been bringing the logo back for alternates. You follow the money with a business, and Blasty is money for the Flames. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's one of those logos that's so bad it's almost charming. And the fans seem to love it so why not? I don't think many people on here would call the classic Islander's logo great but fan demand necessitated its return. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking for a free one for years. This is one of those fonts where I just don't feel like using the Magic Wand tool to reuse it.

Kevin W. Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 You likely won’t find a font file for it since the numbers’ shapes changed depending on whether they were the only, first or second number.

Patchey13 Posted February 15, 2022 Share Posted February 15, 2022 I was never a fan of the idea of the Canucks in green, but this looks too good for them to not wear, especially if it can replace their current dud third jerseys. I'm not a fan of this EXACT template but it look so sharp on the ice. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Canucks can easily own this green jersey/blue helmets-pants combo. As for the template, I agree. I would even use the original two same coloured stripes with the white V's on the sleeve stripes but with the blue and green reversed. I would also add white to the outside of the two blue stripes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4One Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 I know everything for the RR jerseys are probably all done for next year and the Canucks are likely to go with blue and green colour scheme, I wouldn't mind in the future if the Canucks can do anything with this logo. Still intrigues me to as why this logo was painted in the halls of the Canucks old home. Okay. No more Canucks talk. Let's talk about the Nordiques. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridleylash Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 Honestly, I think I could see the Canucks doing a maroon version of their 2000's navy jersey. They already have it on the Adidas template thanks to the 50th anniversary, may as well get some more use out of it, y'know? Plus, they're still using the skate as an alternate, so I wonder about their willingness to dip into that pot twice in a single season.

If the jersey is different enough and looks good, I can't see that being a big issue. Plus, they could always drop the current black skate for a year or two, then come back to it later on, or even break out the white version.

DTConcepts Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 I don't like the gradients and the drop shadows they've put all over the logo. Design wise, it's really nice though, especially the way they implemented the warning flags. Quote "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..."
