Are they calling a press conference? I would REALLY like to see the new jerseys too (live, of course)!

The new web page was up earlier this morning. As it is now, everything but the front page appears to be working.

i don't think there's ANYTHING the ducks can do to be "cool"

Thats the only team logo in the NHL that I can think of that doesn't actually have a logo...It just says Ducks.

Uh...Rangers?

I actually like it. Modern NHL logos are by-and-large Pejorative Slured, IMO.

The Rangers have a logo. What are you talking about?

Because of the "duckfoot D" it really isn't all that different than the Islanders, Rangers, Stars, Lightning, Maple Leafs, an Blue Jackets who all have their enitre names along with some accompanying graphic to portray the team. This one jsut happens to be tied into the logo. The Islanders and Rangers logos actually have less ties to the team name than the new Ducks logo. I'm not saying I like it a ton, and I'm a Ducks fan, I'm just saying it's not just the word "Ducks".

 

[Slats432]

Kind of disappointed they didn't go further with the name change. Don't care about the name, just that they could have used it as a marketing thing, create excitement.

Either way...the logo and the colours are fine.

 

[Holly Golightly]

I actually like the new logo and uniform. Maybe they can get Cheney to drop the first puck next season. (Was he duck hunting or quail hunting when he shot his "friend"?)

Henry Samuelli didn't want it like that. He wasn't going to change the name to whatever he wanted and create a big marketing deal. He asked the fans, and they wanted Ducks, so that's what they got.

 

[DarkHorse]

The Islanders...logos actually have less ties to the team name than the new Ducks logo.

You mean, like the Island on the Islanders logo?

 

[GKJ]

COUNTDOWN TO NAME CHANGE:

0 DAY: 0 HOURS: 0 MINUTES


It's not 2pm yet



The new website has orange, but the jerseys seem to have like a bronze color instead of orange

 

[Scoogs]

Their defining logo will likely be that "D" in the shape of a Ducks foot.

But as the jerseys show, they will have Ducks across the chest.

 

[Davey Duck]

You mean, like the Island on the Islanders logo?

Ooops, my bad. Didn't ever look at that blob close enough to realize it was the island.

That's smart, because if you stare at it too long you'll go blind.

 

[Lupul*]

New jerseys and colors look nice.

 

[Beauty eh?]

Logo's too bland....all it is is a variation of their current third jersey logo.

.com needs to get on the ball. The link to the Ducks site is dead.
