It wouldn't really have an NHL feel. I mean...they did T-shirt designs that looked like they were from a local store last time, too; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having every team tied to the flag seems cool at first, but then again it'd be weird if the NY Jets were an orange and blue football team or the Tampa Bay Lightning were red, blue and yellow hockey team.

A franchise that lasted 7 years with no success? It's not the same. 7 years with no success? They were in Quebec from 1972 to 1995 and were the #1 seed in the 1995 playoffs only to lose to the #8 seed Rangers in the first round of that season’s playoffs.

tBBP Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Re: the Rockies, y'all do realize that the fact that their uniforms were in Colorado flag colors was a happy coincidence, right? I also love how y'all are completely bypassing the fact that the Rockies actually began life as the Kansas City Scouts... 2 Quote *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure didn’t. It’s ridiculous that NJ is getting a KC Scouts RR and Colorado is getting a RR from the same franchise lineage. Makes no sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I call BS on that. The Scouts had the color palette first, sure, but you don’t incorporate the flag into both your primary and secondary logos by “happy coincidence.” 6 Quote "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..."

RollWolfpack Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Hurricanes Stadium Series inspiration? Someone on the Canes subreddit just posted this picture of a new Stormy logo that appears to be Tuffy-inspired. Given the game is played at State’s football stadium, could this be the direction for the Stadium Series game uniform? 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This makes me wonder if we could see a color flip of their Winter Classic jersey. That used a lighter blue and darker red to great effect. 1 Quote On 1/25/2013 at 1:53 PM, 'Atom said: For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head.

If it were a Winter Classic I'd say that would be a possibility, but the Stadium Series has always been about using some sort of innovative/modern uniform. My guess is that logo is just meant for merchandise. Given the switch to black at home, we'll see if they decide to bring back the leaked version from last year, or if they pivot to a red jersey instead.
