mfoster Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Before anyone starts a thread, I am not using the logo shown in the story linked below:http://www.americanjuniorhockey.com/2010/04/more-nahl-expansion.htmlI don't know where Steve Heisler got that, but it's not ours and we aren't using anything like it. As I mention in the comments, we have a designer (a regular here, as you might expect) working on concepts for us right now.FWIW, I wanted to go with something a little more creative than "Mariners." I kept coming back to "Maelstrom," but didn't want a name that might alarm passengers while simultaneously being the butt of jokes about the franchise circling the drain. I also liked "Conchs," but my owners didn't appreciate the double-entente and fussed about the alliterative name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrySmalls Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I knew the logo looked familiar. It's from my home county's youth hockey team: http://www.eteamz.com/westchestermariners/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 I'm more intrigued with the idea of a hockey team playing home games on a cruise ship. I'd like to hear more about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFoA Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 A Mariners logo...& it ain't the masterful one that Lee drew up for the Wyoming Marinerzzzzz? For shame. Despite the fact that playing hockey in a cruise ship is one of the best ideas since the idea that an Italian plumber rescuing a Princess from turtles & armless rodents would make for an ideal video game, I do not support this at all, theft or no theft.Go Wyo.

kiwi_canadian Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 I heard this morning on the radio that they will be building a bridge between Vancouver Island and the mainland of British Columbia and it will eventually eliminate BC Ferries. On top of that, due to the high winds and tides in the strait, only vehicles over 200 tonnes would be aloud to cross the bridge. Ah April Fools Day. Great for a good read.

mfoster Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 It turns out this has generated a lot of interest from other companies. The Norwegian Cruise Line ship out of Seattle wants to add a team as well, to be called the Norwegian Godtroendes. I haven't tried to translate that yet, but I'm sure there will be a great rivalry with the Wenatchee Wild...I'm really surprised at how much interest has been generated by the article. The comments section was particularly supportive. I can't wait to get some team calendars printed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
