Augusta, Ga gets an SPHL team


Recommended Posts

The SPHL just added a new member, the Augusta RiverHawks.

...Wonder how long it took the owner's nephew to fiddle around with the fonts in Illustrator and come up with THIS gem

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

I guess, the best case scenario is that this is a place holder for something else.... Just hope they don't decide to just roll with it a la OKC thunder... Totally right on the bankruptcy paperwork though - Every sunbelt team should just switch their logos to letterhead - never hurts to be prepared....

The font that "augusta" and "hockey club" are set in looks extremely douchey. Where have I seen it before? NAME THAT FONT

♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫

I get a vague Washington Capitals feel out of the wordmark. Unfortunately, I doubt Washington is a aware that your league exists.

Augusta was announced a while ago (they just announced their new coach, that's probably why they're in the news right now). They haven't unveiled their logo yet and that is just a word mark. Whether it is permanent or not, we'll have to wait an see.

Ok, seems like they might stick with just the word mark. This is the only shot I can find of the jerseys they showed at the Press Conference so I don't know what is on the front but I think if they unveiled jerseys, thet would have also unveiled their logo officially and made a big deal about it.

Wrong... Boudreau's kid plays in the league.

Daddy's going to be pissed when he learns that his son's ECHL gig is actually in an A-Puck league.

Wonderful to see a capacity crowd on hand at Billy Bob's BBQ & Coin Laundry for the press conference.

I guess everyone was in line for the all you can eat Ribs Buffet.

This logo is a poor job, even for single A hockey.

Ummm....unless we're going for the "You are what you eat" angle, Jasper up there is a few feathers short of being a bird.

I'm pretty sure daddy knows since he coached in Biloxi. It's older bro Ben that plays in the E.

Augusta unveiled their logo today.

Here's the white jersey:

It might just be the picture angle or something but that is the widest logo I've ever seen on the front of a jersey. His arms are out and it doesn't even look fully flat. The wings are going to tuck under his arms when he puts them down.
