RedEye Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Check the story out on Calgaryflames.comThe font bothers me. The 'S' seems much bigger than the 'K' and the font doesn't speak knights to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEAD! Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 For the most part, I like it. I like how they insert the flame portion onto the knight's head. Not too crazy about the sword 'T' though. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

officeglenn Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I like the incorporation of the Flames' logo, and the logo as a whole. My only problem is that the whole thing looks a little off-kilter to the left ? with the sword 'T' forcing the "Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben" over that way, and the flames on that side. If the wordmark were a bit more symmetrical, it would be that much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCBoy Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I also loved how they encorpaerated the Flames logo into this one, the font nor the sword bother me at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilbert Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I like it. I had a strong feeling they would be the Omaha Knights, but I was close since they are called the Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights. Signature intentionally left blank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seadragon76 Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Ak-Sar-Ben is Nebraska backwards. It has been very well known around the Omaha area and I am not shocked they are the Knights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Clemente Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 It seems like it may have worked better if the name was Omaha Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben.I like that they actually tied something historical into the name.--Roger "Time?"

Stampman Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 I wanted to post this first---but life kept me away fom the computer.I like it--I was kind of apprehensive about it, but I'm not anymore--good job on the Flame use, although it would look better on the uni without the wordmark...

slapshot Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 I know it's Nebraska spelled backwards. But I've never seen that used anywhere else.University of Ak-Sar-Ben?Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Beef?Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Royals?Seems unnecessarily redundant. Do Nebraskans generally forget the state they're in?

Roger Clemente Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Omaha AHL team to be known as the Ak-Sar-Ben Knights, NHL Flames announceposted May 12 @ 17:07, ESTOMAHA, Neb. (CP) - The new American Hockey League team that will begin play next autumn will be known as the Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights.The team is affiliated with the NHL's Calgary Flames. The Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben Foundation is a 110 year-old philanthropic organization. "It's an exciting day when your team begins to create an identity," said Flames GM Darryl Sutter. "Our players will be very proud to carry the name and insignia of the Ak-Sar-Ben Knights."This will form a foundation for building a hockey club in Omaha that represents the same high standards of this community and the qualities required for success both in Omaha and Calgary."Now you know why there are named that and also why I think the team shold be called the Omaha Knights of Ak-Sar-Ben.--Roger "Time?"
