Winnipeg Jets Thread

[Frank E]

Fair enough. I was more making a point about the script in general. A sloppy J and a crooked e doesn't stop me from reading it as Jets but it makes it look pretty messy all the same.

The T and S meeting at a hardpoint instead of flowing into each other just adds to that - especially considering the top of the S is flat and the bottom is rounded. THe whole thing is poorly executed, in my opinion.

Slow news day boys?

I must be hard to please, because I don't like the official logo, and find all of those fan made ones hideous!

 

[Guilt Trip]

I think this would've looked excellent.

much better.....

I find it hard to believe you dont like any of the mockups either. Theres gotta be something out there you like.

 

[hockeyfan1]

That's more like it!

 

[LittleHockeyFan]

I don't really like any of the linked three nor the green one actually pictured. The last one looks too much like the Flyers, the centre one reminds me too much of the Rangers.

I actually like the one they're using the best of all these......

 

[Bender]

To each their own I guess

But to me the design barely looks fit to be in the OHL.

Since when do teams play 3 days in a row?

Winnipegs playing Feb 9th at Washington, Feb 10th at Pittsburgh and Feb 11th at Pittsburgh..

I knew back to back were pretty common, but 3 games back to back.. i hadnt seen it till now.

They do it all the time in the AHL, and, since the Jets are being managed like an AHL franchise . . .

Also, there's no Jets game scheduled for the 10th of February.

Sportsnet's got it wrong then. I just looked at NHL.com and they have the Jets @ Washington on the 9th and @ Pittsburgh on the 11th.

I don't know why, but none of the logos I've seen really reach out and grab me.  I'm certainly not saying I could do better or anything like that though.

True North Sports got at least one logo right.  Their AHL team was officially named the St. John's IceCaps yesterday.

Not crazy about the team name, but I like the logo.  There is a map of Newfoundland and Labrador built into the mountain.

Tim Horton's must have cut them a huge cheque.

Tim Horton's must have cut them a huge cheque.

Next, an ECHL team called the Double Doubles?

December 31st can't come fast enough

According to sports media reports, Winnipeg Jets merchandise -- t-shirts, hats, etc., etc., -- is selling at high demand, even in Calgary, where it's outselling Flames merchandise, which shows that even non-Winnipegers are purchasing Jets' gear.

By far and wide, the largest buyers, by a 3-1 margin, are females.  Proof 'girl power' is alive and well in pro sports support!  ;D
