I voted for #2 yesterday.

Mostly out of Nostalgia for HEY HEYYY HOCKEYTOWN, but I also think it would be good for the players and fanbase to start thinking like champions again. Bring back some pride to this team, and perhaps we will accomplish something to be prideful of. 

>how can we can honestly call ourselves hockeytown when we cant even make the playoff?

Because I don't give AF mostly. We could go 0-81 next season and I still will proudly tell opposing fans "welcome to hockeytown, get ready to lose" on game 82. Being concerned we arent good enough for the label is wussy talk. 

>but #1 just looks so much cleaner

I'd argue this isnt a vote about which center logo looks cleaner/nicer. It's a vote for an entire marketing campaign / branding scheme. The Red Wings are essentially asking us the question "do you want us to bringback hockeytown?" And with that everything that comes with it. The television intro. Mickey n Ken referencing it. Merch. Etc. Because if they paint that on the ice all those things are coming back. Theyre not just going to stop at center ice. And IMO id rather do that than trot out the same old boring "clean" red wings. 

Marketing is fun. Look at what the Cats did with Rats and Dairy Queen. Time to bring back Octopi and Hockeytown.
