RadioGaGa 162 Report post Posted August 4, 2006 I didn't think this belonged in the NHL logo discussion. It's an insanity all it's own.http://www.theahl.com/AHL/News/2006/08/01/1714268.htmlApparantly the big Ad Firms are hiring 5 year old artists now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trucks 0 Report post Posted August 4, 2006 As I read through that story I though they were honoring a kid who drew it or something and died in a river in his body was just found. I may have respected the logo a little more if that was the case. But that was the corniest thing Ive ever heard, its a goddamn logo drawn by an ad agency, dont give it a damn fake history.

JR Boucicaut 3789 Report post Posted August 4, 2006 Funny, and Todd takes the Wilkes-Barre head coach job today. Great guy - was Orlando's captain when we won the Turner Cup in 2001. Funny story - a year later he was going to skate with some of the pros who showed up at the rink in the summer but didn't have shinpads. I was working in the shop and ironically my pads fit him so I got them for him. He was like "Too much padding," then took out the inner padding and handed to me and off he went.

Buzz_LightBeer 969 Report post Posted August 9, 2006 whats sad is that theyre the 2nd best team in the league but cant draw more than 2000 a night. bad pr the past few years due to a possible sale/move of the team, but now theyre staying, and the new guys pr kicks ass. last year they had $2 ticket night, all proceeds going to make-a-wish, and 18000 sold out the bradley center Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
