hockeyfreak6611 Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Draft hat time! Interesting that Tampa's has the old logo... Get it together, RBK. I'll update the missing as the hats are leaked. I won't be shocked if each of the 5 missing has a new mark.AvalancheBlackhawksBlue JacketsBluesBruinsCanadiensCanucksCapitalsCoyotesDevilsDucksFlamesFlyersHurricanesIslandersKingsLightning NewLightning OldMaple LeafsOilersPanthersPenguinsPredatorsRangersRed WingsSabresSenatorsSharksStarsThrashersWild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DelayedPenalty Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Nice looking hats. I've been in the habit of buying the draft cap each year, but having a team with a 2 color scheme (Maple Leafs), you can only own so many plain blue hats with white accents. I think I'll pass this year.Looking forward to grabbing a Moose/Jets draft cap though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korbyn Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I am interested to see what the Stars hat will look like?Will they use the DALLAS wordmark or will they use Green and Stars main logo?These hats do look a lot better then previous years ...

hockeyfreak6611 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 Probably reading too much in to it, but the striping pattern on the hats is a lot like was featured on the all-star jerseys. RBK could be pushing this for future uniforms... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I actually like these a lot. Better than most draft hats. And those 5 teams could all be getting some kind of update. Haven't there been rumours for at least small changes to each of those teams' logos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cujo Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 The Oilers are probably missing because they're going back to their 80s "glory days" logo as their primary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elliott Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Nice. The way the brim detail mimics the jersey striping is a very cool addition. So, the 5 teams missing might not necessarily be getting new logos, but all 5 ARE rumored to be getting new uniforms, so they probably just didnt want to show what would essentially be a preview of next year's yet-to-be-unveiled jerseys. I'm not a huge fan of the vertical stripes coming down from the middle contrasting colored button thing, though, I wish those stripes also had the stripe seen on the brim, and the wordmarks look awkward imo.Still, it's weird that the Lightning one isn't all blue.I really like the Maple Leafs brim detail.

Still MIGHTY Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Usually draft hats are kinda boring, but I kinda dig the striping pattern on the hats/brims. I love the sleeve stripes transfer to the brim detail.I find the Sharks hat kinda interesting with that detail, because there isn't any of the slim orange accent anywhere. Personally as a Ducks fan, I like the lack of orange anywhere on the Sharks hat, but it is interesting to note that the actual brim detail is that of the alternate. It has the black background with the white/teal/white striping. | ANA | LAA | LAR | LAL | ASU | CSULB | USMNT | USWNT | LAFC | OCSC | MAN UTD | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justen Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 I have to agree... never liked the orange with the sharks. They should go back to the silver/grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RETROJR79 Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Can't wait to see if the Kings hat will be the crown logo or the LA one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockeyfreak6611 Posted June 2, 2011 Author Share Posted June 2, 2011 The Stars and Oilers hats have been found. That leaves just 3 left, unless Winnipeg is ready to debut a logo by the draft. The Kings TeamLA store says they will be unveiled on the 15th, which seems odd knowing that the finals could go that long. Glad I ordered a Thrashers one already as it will most likely be their last new piece of merchandise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 All of the hats just have the team nickname except the Avs. Theirs says COLORADO AVALANCHE.

hockeyfreak6611 Posted June 5, 2011 Author Share Posted June 5, 2011 It looks like the Kings have officially ditched the purple. I have added the link to their hat at the top. Since the hats feature the primary logos, it is safe to assume that the purple/silver/black crown has been retired. I've also added the Panthers hat, and they have kept the old leaping panther. The Lightning now have a hat featuring the new bolt, while many stores are selling one with the old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michigan Dave Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 One of the things I really like is when the NFL and NHL use the new draft hats for the two conference champions during the finals/Super Bowl with the patch on the side. I was disappointed when nhlshop backordered my Bruins cap, but it looks like it finally shipped. This year's design is OK, there have been better. I'm generally a fan of the white hats. I know...boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
