Bmac Posted September 25, 2008 Share Posted September 25, 2008 I think the center ice logo is great. As everyone else, I think it should cover the entire circle. The logo itself is great though. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the regular season comes it will be back to the real logo.The Blues had their normal paint scheme (Bluenote on both sides of center) at center ice in their first home preseason game.Couldn't find a good photo, but I found one good enough to confirm that.

njmeadowlanders Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I love that at center ice over the slug. And I don't mind that it doesn't fill the circle. Looks good, unlike say, Ottawa who has their logo blown up and so big that parts of it are cropped out of the circle. Someone care to explain to me what the point of that is?

BBTV Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Why do they have to paint the logos? Can't they put down a really big decal on the white surface and then flood / freeze over top of it? Or am I just totally wrong about how the process works?

Can't they put down a really big decal on the white surface and then flood / freeze over top of it? Or am I just totally wrong about how the process works?That's how we did it when I worked at a ice rink. We didn't have any logos or anything but the lines were made out of a tissue paper like paper.

Can't they put down a really big decal on the white surface and then flood / freeze over top of it? Or am I just totally wrong about how the process works?I'm pretty sure thats how they did it for the 2008 Stanley Cup Playoff banners at the blue line. It might be because they didn't have time to completely redo the ice, they could add another layer over the decal with all the original lines and they are set.

ebod39 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I'm a little perplexed why everyone is saying they should fill the whole circle? that extra outline isn't part of the logo.the logo is filled and looks fine.... the real question is why did they add a separate blue line around the logo?

Sabrejeff Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 That's a real pain in the ass for the crew who takes care of the ice.It really isn't since all arenas keep track of coats and thicknessWhy do they have to paint the logos? Can't they put down a really big decal on the white surface and then flood / freeze over top of it? Or am I just totally wrong about how the process works?For the most part the logos and advertisements are decals under about 1/8" to 1/4" layer of ice (3-5 coats of water).

Roger Clemente Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Yeah, the Canadiens/Sabres game is staring and the third jersey "vintage" logo is still occupying center ice.
