YELDARBfield Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 The Memphis Grizzlies retired #50 for Zach Randolph tonight, and the banner looks like a platinum record: I can't find a photo online, but this actually matches the FedExForum suite (and office?) signage, which looks like a little gold record at each door. 3 Quote Twitter • Facebook • Instagram • LinkedIn • Tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartacat_12 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 A few turn of the century NHL expansion teams have recently retired their first numbers. The Blue Jackets went with the appropriate font for Nash instead of the current one, which is a nice touch. The Koivu one is a bit odd. They used the current road name & number font, but the bottom of the banner has the striping from the old Minny jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the idea with the Koivu banner is that the striping matches both the other banner, and the actual jerseys Koivu wore. I definitely associate the block font with Koivu more, so I’m glad they used it. Quote "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

Since the other banner is for "the fans" (and lame as hell), they should make Koivu's consistent and tailor the other one to it, in my opinion. Actually, I'd rather they get rid of the fans one altogether.

And with Koivu it was tough, because while he wore both, I feel like the block font is more synonymous with him. Honestly they could have gone with a red banner matching that era too… Quote "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

SFGiants58 Posted March 19, 2022 Share Posted March 19, 2022 Or they could bring the classic striping back on the uniforms, along with the old number font. Quote MLB: Project 32 (Complete), MLB: The Defunct Saga (Complete) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
