Mississauga's OHL Team Renamed Steelheads; New Logo Unveiled


Recommended Posts

As well as "Hurricanes" would fit Mississauga for non-weather reasons, I kinda doubt it's relevant to southern Alberta for any reason.

I'm going to make an ass out of myself and assume they're named after the same hurricanes Tulsa is named after.

It adds a much needed touch of blue to a red-heavy league.

I counted 7 red teams and 7 blue teams. So......yeah.

I was referring to the logos.

The Mississauga Steelheads have unveiled their new primary logo.

The fish is nothing special, but perfectly all right I guess.

Yeesh, that wordmark though... It. Is. BAD.

They also win the award for far and away the most unnecessary maple leaf of the year. I mean on teams in primarily US leagues (a la the Jet's reboot) it's still stupid, but I can see why it happens. In a league based out of Canada, where most of the teams are Canadian, which is mostly followed by Canadians, though, it's mind numblingly stupid.

I will always pine for the old Steelheads logo, but the trout is miles ahead Mississauga for two reasons I believe somebody may have already said.

1. Detail. Way too much on Mississauga's, and just right on Idaho's. Remember that Idaho's trout logo was the alternate from when they rebranded till this past year.

2. The eye. The slant on Idaho's makes the trout look if not menacing, then at least angry. Mississauga's trout looks absolutely frightened.
