carpandean Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 Anyone know? Will the vintage logo remain :thumbsup: or will, as rumored, the slug return :thumbdown: for the regular season? (And before anyone says it, this is REALLY low on my thoughts about tomorrows' game, but I was reminded of it by preseason pic.)
Two or less Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 It's gonna be the vintage all season i heard.
frisky Posted October 9, 2008 Report Posted October 9, 2008 From the season preview videos from the Snooze, it looks like the new 3rd is still there. But, not sure when they recorded it. But, the date says 10/9. Who knows. Edit: Videos were recorded at least before Weber got sent down.
carpandean Posted October 10, 2008 Author Report Posted October 10, 2008 In today's game preview video, it was still the classic logo.
SDS Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 and they came out of the tunnel through the classic logo. I'm telling ya Sluggalo's days are numbered as the primary jersey.
TM8-PL16 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 and they came out of the tunnel through the classic logo. I'm telling ya Sluggalo's days are numbered as the primary jersey. Let's HOPE and PRAY!!!! :thumbsup:

darksabre Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 I was thinking it last night during the game when RJ mentioned that they completely redid all the logos and stuff in the arena. This is the death knell for the slug.

This is the death knell for the slug. Everyone (for example, Kevin Sylvester) is wearing classic logo jackets, too. 40th Anniversary, baby!!!
thesportsbuff Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 what a roller coaster. was so excited to see the logo there in pre-season... and then was extremely disappointed to hear that it was only temporary... and then unimaginably happy to see it there on opening night, along with the classic logo jackets and entrance-banner that were mentioned in this thread.
Corp000085 Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 I have a source deep within the organeyezation that says that the classic crossed swords logo remained at center ice, long after last night's shootout victory against the canadiens.

Where did you hear that it was temporary?
thesportsbuff Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 Where did you hear that it was temporary? i forget which blog it was, but they reported that all teams were using their alternate logo at center ice for pre-season.. it might have been eklund >< :wallbash:
SDS Posted October 11, 2008 Report Posted October 11, 2008 i forget which blog it was, but they reported that all teams were using their alternate logo at center ice for pre-season.. it might have been eklund > I found the reference. Maybe that is true, but it seems like there are an awful lot of crossed swords around beyond center ice.
thesportsbuff Posted October 15, 2008 Report Posted October 15, 2008 I found the reference. Maybe that is true, but it seems like there are an awful lot of crossed swords around beyond center ice. Yeah, and now that I think about it, aren't there some third logos/jerseys that STILL haven't been revealed? That would debunk the league-wide pre-season only campaign... all good signs.

That would debunk the league-wide pre-season only campaign... all good signs. If you're Larry Quinn, don't you want to advertise your new product to make as much money as possible? The whole third jersey idea is based bringing in extra revenue, and all the "signs" everyone thinks they see are part of the advertising. I really wouldn't get your hopes up.

If you announce that something new is coming, people will stop buying what's available and wait-n-see if they like the new one better.

Ok, so if you're Larry Quinn, and you re-brand the team with the "slug" and get thousands upon thousands of complaints about it, combined with probably twice as many people stating that they'd prefer the old logo in a heartbeat, don't you think you'd make more money by going back to the old logo? I'm not saying it's going to happen, but your logic works both ways.. obviously it's advertising. Whether it's advertising a third jersey or a future primary jersey is yet to be determined.
