Eastside's Hockey Elite Collide

Can't link the pic from my phone, but that's a sick logo.

Like the script, not big on the primary or shoulder patch. Disappointed they're keeping the old colours - not that I can fault them for that, but there are what, seven teams using various shades of red, blue & white?

I would imagine we started using that color scheme long before anyone else.



I like it, the script looks really good.

Yep. Rangers weren't an Original Six team or anything.

or Les Canadiens.

See, I knew you'd both agree with me.

imo, regardless there is something to be said about having a history. I'm glad they kept the colors.

Bleh. I don't like the grey on undersaturated red look. Plus the whole military fetish in sports needs to go away.

Are all teams just supposed to be named after animals and geography?

We all knew they'd be the Jets. Was the logo supposed to be a unicorn? A Boeing 747? The Concorde?

Dude, they're called the Jets. Is the logo supposed to be a unicorn?

Did Labatt Blue desgin the logo?

It does look good tho, and I like to homage to the Air Force but an American made Jet?

I dont like it at all. Like come on... A Jet on a fricking Maple Leaf... LOLLLLLLLL

An exploding jet and military-style shoulder patches? Do not like.

(But it's better than ATL's logo.)

The two on the right aren't terrible, but (like I ranted on Twitter and Facebook) the main logo looks like a fucking F-18 parked on the ice at a goddamn curling rink. I think the logo is fucking awful and was probably designed by the same idiots who came up with the province's new motto, "Spirited Energy" which has so far cost taxpayers a modest $2,600,000 to design and market.

The logo is bad enough that I will outright refuse to buy any new Jets gear and will instead opt for the retro stuff.

For me, even if you don't like it, I think you have to see it on a jersey during a game before you can really judge. I hated the Jackets' alternate cannon logo, but on a jersey, it doesn't look bad at all.

I still like it. Not as much as I originally did, but only because I can get a better high res look than on my phone. It's simple, clean, and unique. I think that because the ownership group wanted so badly to create a new identity with a name and couldn't do it because of the public outcry for bringing back the Jets name, they went for the new identity with the logos. It's vastly different from previous or current logos. For that, I give it credit.

I had forgotten Jet. That was one amazing album

.. maybe a stylized, generic jet like the old logo?
Historical themes are one thing, but this logo is practically an advertisement for the current RCAF, which I don't really get. Plus the colour scheme sucks.

looks like a beer can to me.

maybe they should have made it a hot tub jet spout to avoid all controversy?
