illwauk Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I know there's probably a better chance of me becoming a Bears fan than there is of the Minnesota Wild ever reviving the North Stars name. But even a full two decades after the fact, I still haven't been able to give my NHL allegiance to another team. Of course, two years ago at this time, it seemed just as unlikely that we'd ever see the Charlotte Hornets again, so never say never, I guess.I replaced the black that the team started using towards the end of the 80s with a darker green (Hawaii green to be exact) and gave the classic North Stars logo a 21st century update. I also kept the Wild's crest as a shoulder patch because even though the overall identity is crap, their logo is all kinds of awesome sauce.Whatchuthink?

generalshepherd141 Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I don't know if the two greens will mesh together nicely on the ice, but it is a very well done concept. I am sure most of us here like the North Star's identity more than the Wild's, so this is an intriguing thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Overall its distinctive and interesting. Sadly (for you) the Dallas Stars are about as likely to give up the North Stars name as the Dodgers would be willing to let a Brooklyn expansion team reclaim theirs.

MojoRoberts Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 I am a fan of the two-tone green. I know its kind of un-popular but I dig it. The Northstars' logo was always a favorite of mine. Good job on this. http://boards.sports...-league-hockey/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 The star should be "italicized" along with the N; otherwise these would look sweet. (Speaking of the N, it looks kinda like the N in the NHL logo, which is a nice touch in itself.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColeJ Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 after seeing this on my laptop, as opposed to my phone, i really think the outline of the wild logo would have to be white.otherwise you turn his mouth/river into yellow... yellow rivers are gross.

worcat Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 I like this, just not a fan of the inconsistent striping colors on the arms and torso's for both away and home. Bleeding Blue since 1986 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
