Datsyerberger 279 Report post Posted January 14, 2009 I always thought the Stars 3'rd jersey logo was absolute failure. What is that supposed to have to do with hockey? Some sort of bull that is seeing stars?? Like he got hit over the head maybe? Or perhaps a connect-the-dots kinda thing? Pure capitalism... The jerseys they had before the current style were atrocious as well. The new style is actually very nice... It's nickname is "Mooterus" for a reason. Not too hard to figure out.

Datsyerberger 279 Report post Posted January 14, 2009 You know what I find amusing about that logo is that the duck on the jersey is not wearing the jersey that the duck is on. What I find funny about it is that the duck goalie's chest pads are as bloated as Giggy's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As a HIFK fan when I was living in Helsinki, yeah, Jokerit's logo is pretty weak. But seriously Jokerit = Jokers, which does have a lot of potential for good logos. I think that Tappara, however, has the best logo in SM-liiga, hands down. It's just a big battleaxe! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

selkie 10 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 I'll add another recommendation for Rhodent's Bush League Hockey site. His take on the Danbury Trashers: http://www.bushleaguefactor.com/teams/dan.asp After all this time, it's really hard to get me to believe a logo represents a new low in sports logos. Bears on skates? Yawn. A gorilla walking out of a space portal? Been there, done that. Weather phenomena with facial expressions? Ho hum. After a while, I begin to wonder if I can find something unique to say about each logo when they all look the same. But once in a blue moon, a logo comes along that tears through all that has come before it the way a habanero pepper tears through your digestive tract. And with pretty much the same effect, I might add. The sheer audacity of such logos is truly awe-inspiring. The thought that such a logo was not merely designed but actually approved after its creation boggles the mind. Such a logo has philosophical ramifications, as it brings the very notion that we have evolved above and beyond other species into question. Such a logo may even be a convincing argument that there is no god. Some truly hideous bush league special nights jerseys here: http://beanballinc.blogspot.com/2006/12/he...f-darkness.html The Richmond Renegades 'Flower-Power' and Adirondack IceHawks Christmas jerseys are particularly impressive. You can also kind of see the original anthromorphic demonic cotton ball logo for the Lubbock Cotton Kings if you scroll down far enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Awesomeness Hate their logo and jersey. The color scheme is just deplorable in my opinion. Maybe it is just too obvious that they are a "new" team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
going_top_shelf 6 Report post Posted January 15, 2009 I really don't like it when teams just spell their names on their jerseys. I think it would be so much cooler if teams could just put in the little bit of work to make an actual logo and not just put Word Art on their jeresys.
