I'm going to be a total tease here since the release is not quite ready, working on a bug with the game not correctly representing dark/home vs light/away in-game team colors but here are the 7 varieties of Seattle that will be built into the next build of NHL32/WHA database. Massive thanks to
@sparkychewbarky for creating all the brilliant logos and identities! The colors will all be named in a way that it is simple to go into archi's editor's imply change the name of Seattle on the team screen and set the preset corresponding colors in the Colors screen and viola - assuming you download the NHL32 logo and background packs, the entire identity of the team in your game will be changed. You can even change it using the editor in a saved game if you get bored of your current Seattle identity.
Be sure to click on the links below each identity for additional in-game screencaps!
Seattle Sea Lions
- This is my favorite sparkychewbarky Seattle identity so it will continue to be used as the default base. The trident and waves really give this Sea Lion some "bite" to combat the rival Sharks and Orcas (Canucks). Sea green and shale really capture a stormy Seattle feel.

Seattle Kraken
- From the depths of the deep sea comes the famous Kraken, it's giant tentacles menacing all those who cross paths with it. I dare say, I think this was sparky's original and most famous Seattle concept. Has a fun and unique color palette with a rusty reddish base and gold and teal highlights.

Seattle Metropolitans
- A classic NHL name gets a classic NHL look as the Metros return to the ice. Sparky has created a logo that is both modern and art deco and cleverly captures the iconic Space Needle in the design. A simple kelly green and white color combo adds to the timelessness.

Seattle Pilots
- The Pilots of course were the original MLB franchise in Seattle but they return here as the identity of the new NHL team, albeit with a very different look and feel. Brown, black and antique white and a super sharp, classic looking logo create an old-time feel...the road look is also feature the antique white as a base instead of a standard pure white.

Seattle Sawbucks
- A really clever name and logo that unites a historic local industry and native wildlife. Awesomely rendered "buck" over a serrated roundel backdrop and they take to the ice in classic Seattle colors inspired by the former NBA franchise, the SuperSonics.

Seattle Steelheads
- Another day, another super clever sparky logo featuring a stylized fish in the shape of an "S" in very "steel" shaded colors. The local ties are further reinforced by a teal-ish color scheme taken from the city flag of Seattle (which also features the same flowing shapes that the logo has).

Seattle Totems
- For a long time, the NHL32 database used the original classic Totems logo as the Seattle identity. Well, sparky has outdone himself with a fresh new take on the Totems brand, featuring a soaring Totem rendered at an angle for a really unique look and with a bold, bright color scheme.
