justen Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 The Wild need to go with green and cream as the primary colors and only use red as a very limited accent.Haha! EXACTLY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no97 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 The Wild have one of the most unique logos in the NHL, why turn it into a shoulder patch?Um, because the Aeros are the Wild's AHL affiliate? And because just about every team in that league does the same thing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 "They're green and red, they look like Christmas" is just as lame as "red and yellow, they look like McDonald's."Green and red is a perfectly acceptable, and very pleasing, colour scheme. The cream and gold the Wild add to the mix makes it even better. In fact I'd advocate the Devils go back to red and green full time if they didn't have so much success associated with the red and black look.

Morgan33 Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 God, what is that Aeros crap. Let's pick out a couple of widely-derided unrelated Edge templates from the initial rollout and go with those for the home and road, sure, why not. Well, now their look is as ugly and disjointed as their parent club, so congratulations on that, I guess.ThisThe Template the white one uses is atrocious. I would be happy if I never saw another hockey team use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just one person's opinion and judging from the reaction of others the Wild don't need to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mongoose Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 Red and Green is a perfectly fine color scheme and looks great IMO. Like Ice Cap said; Who cares if the color scheme is shared by a holiday or something else famous? If you go by that logic there can be no red and yellow teams (McDonald's), or orange and black teams (Halloween), I'm sure there are a couple other examples as well.

The Giant Pacific Octopus Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 They're retiring the Winter Classic throwbacksWhat a pity. I thought those were some sharp looking uniforms. Even though I wasn't a fan of the "Black Hawks Chicago" ring around the retro indian head logo (I don't like "ringed" logos), I thought the overall jersey was pretty nice and unique. Much better than those old dull generic black thirds they had a few years ago. The Catch of the Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I don't think I've ever seen the Wild in their practice sweaters.There's definitely a mental connection between the colour scheme red and green and Christmas, but that holiday and that colour scheme simply don't go hand in hand. Granted I'm a Jew, but "Christmas" has never been the first thing to come to mind when seeing any of the Wild's game sweaters.

oddball Posted August 27, 2011 Share Posted August 27, 2011 I'm sorry but it really annoys me that people are so close-minded that they can't accept that red and green look good and go together because they are complimentary colors. I deal with it at work, every time the colors of red and green are being tried out. It's always, "Oh no, we can't use that. It looks too much like Christmas." I wish these people would walk outside and look at nature as a lot of plants are red and green. Â Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
