Steve Mason and Rick Nash

You are correct sir. Hopefully it was visually obvious.

It was for me, but idk how easy it will be for fans of other teams.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

After a weekend of love over at UW, I'm back with some more designs...

Detroit:

No change, home or road. The third is a 'heritage' design that honors elements of past uniforms while incorporating some modern and all new elements.

Ok, so I've decided to start designing some logos and unis for former NHL teams and this is the first in that series.

California Seals:

The Seals, in their California incarnation in particularly, had great colors and unis, but the logo reminded me more of a bird with a fish head than a seal. So I tried to remedy that with an updated logo and script.

The unis are basically just updates of previous unis and the Third is a fauxback as well, but I couldn't decide which set to go with, the white-less set (which could be against NHL uni rules, IDK) or the set that is all in the same template but moves the yellow to the third uni. Help me decide, which do you like?

LOGO | CREST | HOME | ROAD (or maybe the third) | maybe ROAD | THIRD

Not feeling the Detroit 3rd(back numbers, hates scripts on front of hockey jerseys), but that Seals concept is BEAUTIFUL! I think the green jersey, the white jersey, and the sea green throwback as a 3rd is my favorite jerseys of the concept. So, to answer your question, a combination of the two options you presented :D.

from far away the seals logo looks similar to the shape of new york state.

at least to me, anyway.

If I've said it once I've said it a thousand times, New York state looks like a seal.

haha, thanks for ruining my own logo for me... :P even the stick works as long island... sonnovabitch.

Seriously, that was my instant thought.

New project: make the New York Seals minor league team

I'll respect any opinion that you can defend.

like hockey week said, run with that idea. take out the C behind it and make it a minor league team or something. the resemblance is uncanny.

still great work regardless.

But there aren't seals in NY, there are in Cali Cali.

I'm really diggin' that second Seals set. A logo with an actual seal, not some abstract sushi shape. As for the first, if you really want to use the script as a jersey, make it white (switch the teal and white) because that look is too flamboyant.

And there aren't any Penguins in Pittsburgh, Bulls in Chicago, Kings in Los Angeles, Jaguars in Jacksonville, Titans in Tennessee, Lions in Detroit, Raptors in Toronto, or Wizards in Washington (I'm sure many of these can be argued but the basic fact is there), so what's your point?

Find some reason for it to work. There aren't any cities in New York where a seal might be of historical significance? A city with alliteration (especially by the eye, how cool would that be?)? or better yet

some seals have popped up in New York harbor.

Run with this, man. Find a more east-coast color scheme and make it happen.

Ignoring all the other inaccuracies, the Bulls were named after the Chicago Stockyards, otherwise known as the meat packing capital of the world.

The Buffalo Zoo would beg to differ.

DEFUNCT TEAM SERIES

Quebec Nordiques:

I think the old Nordiques logo is a trainwreck. Now, I understand that, design aside, people love the 'Diques logo, so - just like the Seals - I tried to update the logo while improving the design.

From what I gather, the old logo was a mashup of an N, an igloo and a hockey stick and puck. First, I rid the logo of the hockey equipment (we know you play hockey) and I give the logo a much more ballanced overall shape. The door to the igloo is framed by an N for Nordiques and also appears as an entrance to a stereotypical igloo.

The home and road unis are pretty much just updates but the third is an homage to the flag of Quebec.

Very nice, but I'd move the "n"/opening over to the left so that it sticks out and adds depth to the logo.

On the alt, maybe try narrowing the white cross just a little bit? It seems like white overkill right now, but the idea is good.
