AnythingChicago Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I like it! It's a nice looking modernization of a classic look. Congrats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milo Meningocele Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I don't know, I'm not a fan. I don't care for the Kings-esque motion lines, especially when you included black and silver. The ESPN/Lady Jane's wordmark isn't working for me, either. I'd rather the fleur de lis on the front, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockey week Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 the hemline striping is just too odd. Plus, having stripes only at the sides looks really weird, like on Boston College's new unis. The sleeve striping looks good. The jersey itself looks pretty good and I like the idea you're trying to work with here (putting a lot of motion into a static logo), but I think some tweaks are in order.If you want something unique and looks like it's rushing up ice for the hemline stripes, why not have a stripe that is lower on the front and higher on the back of the jersey? It's the same general effect, but it won't look too out of place. Throwing some horizontal pinstripes into that line (like the pens second winter classic) might add even more motion to it.and the motion lines on the logo only make it look like it didn't render right, like there are blips and gaps on it (and that's at least partly because it goes the whole way across and stops at the end of the logo. you could make some stop early and some stop late, but idk if that's the true fix). making the entire thing italicized might give you the motion look, it might not. Play around a bit more with that.Good directions, keep at it. I'll respect any opinion that you can defend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey week Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Thanks for comments.Trying to use something else then the igloo now..Something else for fun:Actually, that looks really great. If a new Nords team went in a totally different direction a la the Jets, I'd be perfectly ok with that. Has kind of an explorer's touch to it, which could get cool with links to men like Cartier and Champlain...for something that was "for fun", that's a damn good idea.

bleuet Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Thanks for your comments.Would like to know if this is an improvement?Signification of the logo: The Nordiques (men form the north) would use a Compass point star sporting a fleur the lys on the top, like we often see on nautical maps. At the same time, the compass points card looks alike a Polar star.The dark blue N stands for Nordiques (at same time North) and the stick shape make the star look like a Q for Quebec.ROSEFINAL2 by va2sg, on Flickr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Impaler Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 The logo without the hockey stick was far better IMO. The one with the stick is just trying to do too much IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hockey week Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 it's a really dark blue, and in all but the third jersey (which, honestly, I'm not a huge fan of) you keep them separated very well. the color scheme is definitely not an issue here. It's not like Tampa Bay is using that scheme anymore either, so keep it.The hockey stick and puck are definitely doing WAY too much. plus, it throws the logo off-balance. The fleur de lis does more than enough to identify Quebec, keep it that way.Keep those home and roads unchanged, as well as the logo, and here's a crazy thought that you might use, you might not.Make a retro-esque third jersey. almost all blue, similar to the old Nords jerseys, but using your current blue. for the logo, everybody is using a logo-in-a-circle and though we on the board are getting tired of them, most people still think they work really well. let's face it, they do. so put your compass logo in a circle...but instead of just doing a circle, put the line across on the lower corner making it a Q! hell, if it doesn't look too cluttered, and you don't bother with words on the Q, you could even make the Q's tail look like a hockey stick as an homage to the original logo.it's a thought. try it if you like it, forget it if you don't. but definitely keep playing with this concept, you've got something great here.

sparkychewbarky Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 These are nice bleuet.Your compass logo (without the puck'n stick) would make a great primary.It would be interesting to see hockeyweek's suggestions "put to paper".Really good stuff...Although I was expecting to see a hot-lookin' nordiquelle astride a chopper. *The Battle of Seattle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
