kiwi_canadian Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Saw this article in the Times Colonist today in Victoria after Abbotsford was turned down for the new home for the Stealth and Everett was picked instead. Here's the story from the league website. A new name and logo will appear next week. Any one have any details on this?San Jose Stealth MoveSorry if this has already been posted before.

BostonBlazer Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 They might call them the Washington Stealth. http://www.reverbnation.com/richardyerardihttp://www.ahlfans.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac the Knife Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 If a franchise has to move out of a major metropolitan market like the San Jose-Oakland-San Francisco area, what chance do they have in Everett, Washington?Bad move, fellas. Bad move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballfiji Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Maybe because in Everett (I have no knowledge of the place so I can't tell) the stealth would be the only game in town and wouldn't have any competition from any other professional sports teams.

Burmy Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I think the WHL's Silvertips would beg to differ (I would mention the city's other teams, but the Silvertips' schedule goes on at the same time as the Stealth's) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theonlymember Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Darn, being a San Jose native, I kinda liked the Stealth's logo and branding. But as far as their rank in San Jose, it was probably even below the San Jose Giants. LAKERS | BRONCOS | GOLDEN BEARS | PAC-12 FOOTBALL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roger Clemente Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 How can we tell they're moving? Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNT44 Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 How can we tell they're moving?Actually I think their nickname is quite appropriate. They will probably move out of San Jose with no one noticing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMMF Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Team management has announced that the franchise will be known as... the Washington Stealth.Yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn.Not that it was going to happen or that I wanted it to, but it kind of seems like this negates any rumors that might have had the LumberJax moving to Kent and giving Washington (Everett) an instant rival.

Puckguy14 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Here's a color-adjusted version of the current Stealth primary logo, for reference sake:I'm sure that thing was a nightmare to embroider...I'm guessing so. A couple of years ago the team went with just the wordmark as the primary, however leaving the ninja portion of the logo at mid field. Sad to see the Stealth go, but when Sharks management sold the team to season ticket holders, it was bound to happen. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 As if the "Washington Stealth" ID wasn't lame enough ("Seattle Stealth" or even "Puget Sound Stealth" would have tripped off the tongue a lot easier), get a load of the graphic that accompanies the article on their Web site announcing the name change:I really hope this is just a "work in progress" and not their actual logo for 2010. If so, it's a severe downgrade from their old logo, which would have worked just as well in Everett as it did in San Jose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 I've bumped this thread, as a large image of the new Stealth wordmark has surfaced. Much to my relief, they've ditched the outline of the state. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
