Bayne Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Hi folks. I'm currently in the designing stage of a new NHL-based peice of art and I need some help with team colors. My concept idea for each team is such that I can only represent each identity with one color. So now I need to go through each team and decide which color this should be. There are obvious answers for most, but teams like Dallas or Atlanta I need some help with.My complete list so far is: (teams I'm unsure of and would like your opinions on are marked with a ?)Nashville: Navy Blue ?Anaheim: BlackAtlanta: Navy Blue ?Boston: Black or Yellow ?Buffalo: Navy blueCalgary: RedCarolina: RedChicago: RedColorado: BurgundyColumbus: Navy blueDallas: Green or Black ?Detroit: RedEdmonton: Royal Blue (I'm going with their old school colors)Florida: Red or Navy blue ?LA: Black (old school colors again...assuming their new uniforms are the black and white ones)Minnesota: Green or Red ?Montreal: RedNJ: RedIslanders: Royal BlueRangers: Royal BlueOttawa: RedPhili: OrangePhoenix: Brick Red (assuming only if they are in existance next season)Pittsburgh: BlackSt.Louis: Royal BlueSan Jose: TealTampa Bay: Royal BlueToronto: Royal BlueVancouver: Royal BlueWashington: RedIf you disagree with one that I don't have a ? next to, feel free to suggest a change also. I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCap Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Nashville: Navy Blue ? NavyAnaheim: BlackAtlanta: Navy Blue ? Powder Blue, given their "Blueland" campaign. But the whole identity is inconsistent. Boston: Black or Yellow ? Black. Buffalo: Navy blueCalgary: RedCarolina: RedChicago: RedColorado: BurgundyColumbus: Navy blueDallas: Green or Black ? Black. Detroit: RedEdmonton: Royal Blue (I'm going with their old school colors)Florida: Red or Navy blue ? Navy Blue, sadly. LA: Black (old school colors again...assuming their new uniforms are the black and white ones)Minnesota: Green or Red ? Even more inconsistent then Atlanta. Who knows?

wildwing64 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 My comments in italics.Nashville: Navy Blue ? YesAnaheim: Black Orange. It's the team's "favourite" colour, regardless of how little there is of it in their uniformsAtlanta: Navy Blue ? Powder Blue, goes with the whole Blueland thingBoston: Black or Yellow ? YellowBuffalo: Navy blueCalgary: RedCarolina: RedChicago: RedColorado: BurgundyColumbus: Navy blueDallas: Green or Black ? GreenDetroit: RedEdmonton: Royal Blue (I'm going with their old school colors)Florida: Red or Navy blue ? Navy Blue, if only because the reds are already outnumbering the navy blues. Though red does work best for the Panthers I thinkLA: Black (old school colors again...assuming their new uniforms are the black and white ones)Minnesota: Green or Red ?

Morgan33 Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 Dallas: Green or Black ? Black.Kelly Green.Minnesota: Green or Red ? Even more inconsistent then Atlanta. Who knows? Forest Green without a doubt. If they were just Red and white they'd be the wings. I wonder why no NHL team has tried just going with Green and White. That'd be such a simple, original and great looking scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayne Posted April 9, 2011 Author Share Posted April 9, 2011 I also don't think using orange for anaheim is such a good idea. It would balance out the orange used for phili nicely (seeing as how the orange is such a vibrant stand-out color), but I don't think it represents them as much as every other color represents the other teams.The text color, or background color is likely to be white or silver. I'm leaning towards using Yellow for Boston. I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evanmaldonado Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 For Nashville I'd have to say the yellow/gold, especially if the rumors turn our true and they do end up going with more yellow for the new jerseys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bayne Posted April 10, 2011 Author Share Posted April 10, 2011 Okay so Minnesota will be green. Dallas will be green (I'll sort out different shades later). Nashville will be Navy. Pretty sure Boston will be yellow. And I guess Atlanta will be powder blue. Still undecided about Florida. I know their jerseys are predominately navy blue, but when I think of Florida I never think navy blue. I'm always picturing a red color more so than a blue. I'm Danny fkn Heatley, I play for myself. That's what fkn all stars do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
