Suigi Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I dig the new logo very much.And having the logo on the back of each jersey (either at the neck or on the bottom) sounds like a very slick idea.Someone needs to clean up this logo as a GIF.

winghaz Posted July 22, 2005 Share Posted July 22, 2005 I don't like the new NHL logo. I never liked the old one (granted, though, it was simple and easy to tell). But it just seems they're replacing bland with bland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronChefShark Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 the "motion serifs" on the font is probably the reason why the direction of the sash was reversed. It implies more movement going in this direction then it would have with the new font in the original direction would have.

The_Admiral Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I hope Al Davis does sue them. I thought Raiders when I saw it. Take em out, Al. Restore the old look. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, you're rite... with the "motion serifs" on the old logo's font, you maybe remember strongly how NHL was very down with the strike.

NJTank Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I dont know I personally like the old logo better. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedEye Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Someone mentioned earlier that this might "alienate" some fans. HUH? Do we all really think a modified logo is going to drive away "old" fans? Blame that on the strike / lockout NOT a new logo. That is giving WAY too much power to 2 colors and font skewing.I admit it feels different at first but I got used to it and I actually like it more than the old logo personally. The NHL is doing a little makeover of the game and I think this new logo breathes a little life into those changes. We all are going to see a new game out there, centerline excluded from 2-line pass, restricted puck handling by the goalies etc. If anything this change symbolizes the next generation of NHL hockey. Embrace it. WE GOT HOCKEY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon_Matrix Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/article.jsp...722_175401_5236There is an article on the new logo. It is silver to represent the cup and the NHL is going up to show progressiveness. Go figure. Because Korbyn Is Colour Blind, My Signature Is Now Idiot Proof - Thanks Again Braden!!Go Leafs Go!

Reaper Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I wonder if the bevel effect is just for the site, and the real logo is just the black outline.Also, the uniforms did show the old logo in team specific colors.As long as the team was the Flyers. Actually, NHL uniforms featured the logo in black and silver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroadSt_Bully Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 I wonder if the bevel effect is just for the site, and the real logo is just the black outline. I watched the press conference and draft lottery yesterday and the beveled effect seemed to be on every shield on the backdrop and everywhere else.

Actually, NHL uniforms featured the logo in black and silver. They did that as a way of showing the Authentic from the Semi-Pro. My 3 year old Authentic Leafs jersey has the silver sheild on the back of it at the bottom. Because Korbyn Is Colour Blind, My Signature Is Now Idiot Proof - Thanks Again Braden!!Go Leafs Go!

stpmn Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 From the NHL style guide. There is no change in the beveled look of the logo. This is the official look for all usage of the logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TruColor Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Officially, the logo is the gradient-mess. There are THREE official colors - Black, "Heavy" Silver, and Light Silver. There is a couple of alternate versions - one with no gradients (for embroidery use), and another one with only the Black and Light Silver (for applications under 1.5").Here are the three versions (in all their glory):Official Logo:Embroidery Use (no gradients):Special Use (applications under 1.5"): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frylock Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 Can I just say again how much Pantone ROCKS? He does!And while "Deep Hurting" is good, it's nowhere as effective as "Rock Climbing", but it's more efficient than "Sand Storm"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
