Sens 25th anniversary "new look" | Future Jersey Poll

[Big Papi]

My offering to this conversation.

Not bad! My two cents. The word ,anniversary is largely unneeded with the years includes. I would drop that word and move the years there.

 

[Ragged]

A lot of the most classic logos are letters

Look at:
Boston Red Sox, Bruins
New York Yankees
Chicago Bears
Green Bay Packers
Cincinnati Reds
Philadelphia Phillies
Atlanta Braves
SF Giants
LA Dodgers
Countless NCAA teams

Im not a fan of the habs logo honestly

If you keep going with the centurion as the main there will be a conintual need to update it, as we have seen.

That's a fair argument, Big Papi. You've won me over. =O= it is!

It is the designers job to take control of the situation. They are trained to design. Not the client. I was taught that you make 3 versions... the best versions you can possibly make and then whittle it down from there. Your reasoning is why we have the god awful design that started this thread. It is also the reason that design has been so watered down to the point that it has become a cheap commodity. Clients are not smart enough to know what they want. You have to tell them what they want... period.

And unicorns are going to fly out of my butt. I'm just stating how it usually works in the real world, I'm not disagreeing that a designer would most likely know better. You can tell them what they want until your blue in the face, but like I stated a bunch of times, ultimately it is the clients decision and they have final say. You can't change that.

It's a pretty well known fact that there are people in higher up positions who suck at what they do. Look at the Oilers front office, and they don't even get fired but promoted. Its like an episode straight out of Seinfeld where Elaine promotes the mail clerk instead of firing him because she's scared of him.

Look up Stefan Sagmeister or Pentagram, or even one of the greats like Paul Rand. These people did not bend to the clients whims. They told the client what the client was going to get and then delivered.

 

[Big Papi]

Nice! That shoulder patch has always been a fav of mine!

 

[CanadianHockey]

Just my opinion, but too long. It'd be such a weird shape on a jersey.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

I'd like it if the numbers were much smaller

Yeah, I noticed that too.

 

[CanadianHockey]

Alternatively, something like this?

Alternatively, something like this?

I like this... simple. They have a lot of good old logos that they should be making use of.

Here is my shot at a Jersey:

I may make another alternative. I would choose this as home and the two heritage to make up the 3 jerseys.

 

[Benjamin]

Thoughts?

 

[DylanSensFan]

[Six Assets]

Thoughts?

lmao that hilarious

 

[HavlatMach9]

Thoughts?

took more effort to make than the official one

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Thoughts?

I was hoping someone would do this and i was not disappointed lol

I think it looks cool, but it feels a little girly.

It could be the tube sock material I used to create jersey texture?

That's my feeling on the patch that's making the rounds on RSU and social media. Too long. Really more of a banner.

 

[18Hossa]

Alternatively, something like this?

I really like this but something about the font just doesn't sit well with me.

 

[Xamar*]

Red needs to stay as our main colors

 

[Six Assets]

A picture of Neil would be perfect for the 25th anniversary logo

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Thoughts?

My thought is that is funny as *hit!

 

[CanadianHockey]

I just used Times New Roman. Meant it more as a quick and dirty concept than a polished final product.
