nhl-jerseys

I've been hearing for ages now that TrueNorth was almost certainly going to go with Manitoba if they got a team, ratherthan Winnipeg. We'll see if that happens, but I wouldn't be surprised if theMoose name got a promotion, though I would bet on a rebrand from the cartoonyAHL identity if they did that. I'm hoping for a fresh start, with interestingcolors. Brown MLB Jerseys and greenperhaps? As for the panthers, bleh. I was never a fan of their color scheme anyway they managed it. I just don't like anything that uses all three primarycolors, and both red and navy are overused. Never liked their logo either.Computerized, too detailed, and horribly unbalanced. I was hoping for thedouble blue to get promoted to full time, and a fresh new logo. To me, thePanthers entire look has always been in the mediocre to bad category. I guessit fits the team, but they need a complete rebrand, not just another retooling.

Of all those cities sell NBA Jerseys, only one (Ottawa) gave itsnew team the same name as its old team. The new teams then went on to forgetheir own identities and grow their own traditions (to varying degrees). Nobodythinks the Pittsburgh team lacks tradition because it isn't called the Pirates,and nobody disrespects the Minnesota team because it isn't the North Stars. Andhow many people in Quebec City are holding rallies to bring back the Bulldogs?It seems silly now because the Nordiques forged their own traditions andidentity. Bringing back the "Jets" name just seems lazy anduncreative, and it doesn't give this franchise a chance to develop its ownidentity. (Plus, the original Jets sucked during their NHL days, so it seemskind of silly to honor them in the first place.) And, on top of that, it'sconfusing because it's not the same franchise as the original Jets - just likethe Cleveland Browns in the NFL Jerseys.
