BrianVlietDesign Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Here is my interpretation of what the Penguins may look like if they relocate to Hamilton, Ontario. What I have done with this concept is combine styles the Penguins have used in the past and what they use in the present. Also, a few new details were added to the look. So, here they are. The Hamilton Penguins... NYCFC - MLS CUP CHAMPIONS - 2021 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kewp80 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Yeah change the baby blue helmey to dark blue and you may have something really good. I don't really like the wordmark though, the font seems too 70's. I would use something more modern or more retro. Cardinals -- Rams -- Blues -- Tigers -- Liverpool Check out my music!

BBM Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I would think if they moved to Hamilton they would be renamed, possibly to Tigers. I'd like to see an updated Hamilton Tigers set if anyone's up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelayedPenalty Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I would think if they moved to Hamilton they would be renamed, possibly to Tigers. I'd like to see an updated Hamilton Tigers set if anyone's up for it.I don't think they'd name them the Tigers, they already have the Tigercats (CFL), but it would be a good throwback name, just like Ottawa did with the Senators. I like the concept. I've always liked the baby blue Penguins jerseys. I agree about the baby blue helmet, that needs to go. The primary logo looks a little too cartoony. The wordmark is a little odd, not very attention grabbing. Overall I like what you've done! Good job!As a side note: Do you think Hamilton would be able to support an NHL team? It's a decent sized city, but with them already having the Bulldogs, and Toronto being so close, would that be a bit too much competition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The proximety of Buffalo and Toronto would be a concern, though.

Luigi74 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 If the Pens move I really hope the City of Pittsburgh makes a stink and keeps the name and history like the Cleveland Browns did, why because 5 years after the Pens move the city will finally build a new arena and will try to get an expansion team or steal a team from another city.

steiny_ramone Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 Same as the others, ditch the light blue helmet.Something is bugging me about the logo, and I think it's the triangle. If they're not in Pittsburgh anymore than they don't really need it. facespace?http://www.myspace.com/seancalcottmusic http://www.myspace.com/forgottentoys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rmered Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Please, please, please call them the Hamilton Tigers and use this logo. Oh, and I've got a site.Footy Jumpers Dot Com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letterform Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 The NHL has trademarked that icon, but it's not really the Hamilton Tigers logo as it appeared on their uniforms. The NHL just lifted it from a (very poor) sketch in a book titled "Trail of the Stanley Cup"This is a much more definitive logo for the tigers IMO DEATH TO REEBOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kit Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 To letterform:There was a pro team that used Arial for their wordmark?Oh. My. God.Oh, and to the original poster:Your shoulder logos should not be visible on both the front and back of the jersey unless there are four shoulder logos on that jersey.

StoneRaizer Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 I like it. The colours and layout kinda reminds me of the OHL's St. Michael's Majors. Crosby will almost feel like he's back in Rimouski in those colours also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only changed the "flaws" to the concept. As far as the wordmark goes. I didn't really feel like it need a big change to it. When the Oilers left Houston in '97, they didn't change their wordmark.
