mcrosby Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Am I the only one who saw a feather at first glance? I definitely see a feather with the words "abbotsville" and "heat." At least the colors are innovative, it has been way too long since I've seen red, white, black, and silver....oye. https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEW.ERA Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 God you guys are negative haha Those are actually pretty slick jerseys and the logo is alright would have been better if it had flames trailing behind it.

-kj Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 You give the jerseys praise for being the same as the Flames', save one color? Really? Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!

AAO Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 It IS the Miami Heat logo, with an upward streaking puck as opposed to a fiery downward moving basketball, with the same exact wordmark for heat, amplified with a few slashes/serifs and skewing. It really is, if you removed the slashes/serifs and skewing, it would be the Miami heat wordmark. I don't understand.

gueman Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Ok...first off that name is well like the Utah Jazz and LA Lakers. When I think heat I doubt I think Abbotsford BC. The logo is a joke. Even the worst concept that has ever been on these boards is better than that. I cannot understand why they didn't call themselves the Abbottsford Abbotts! Now that could have been a logo!

It really is, if you removed the slashes/serifs and skewing, it would be the Miami heat wordmark. I don't understand.Hey now....The logo, developed by Abbotsford's Domain7, has been much anticipated by local fans. A custom-made font was created, made up of modern, angular shapes, to convey the sense of motion, speed and power which reflects the excitement of the game of hockey.The logo also features a sense of perspective, set on a dynamic angle that begins larger on the left and narrows in focus toward the right hand side, drawing attention to the puck, which bursts through the letter A in the top right. It calls to mind a decisive goal fired into the top right of the net.

twi Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 They're slapping the tacky flags on the shoulders as well? I guess it beats designing a real alternate logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 This is the Kansas City Blades reappearing before my eyes.1. The name Heat concerns nothing in Abbotsford. Like the KC Blades, the nickname can be applied to any team anywhere. A pet peeve.2. Black, Silver, and Red.3. Puck in logo.Based on point #1, I ask this question: Which design/identity is better, the Missouri Mavericks or the Abbotsford Heat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sodboy13 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 Mind you, the Blades actually had nice uniforms and a legitimate secondary logo.

letterform Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 By far the worst logo in the history of the AHL. Possibly pro sports.And why bother swapping the gold with grey? Who are they fooling? It's still the Flames' uniform. It just uglier and more generic. DEATH TO REEBOK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAB Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 You sir have never heard of the Toledo Storm before. Whoa. Never seen that before and I'm not sure I wanted to.
