  1. It would be a better look if they used a scripted Hawks or Fighting Hawks at center court or center ice instead of the logo. The new wordmark text is a cool look. Both would be infinitely better than the Hawk logo which should be used in small versions at most. i.e. left chest or back tag size on a shirt or sweatshirt but never in a full front decoration. On Uniforms it could be on the shoulder or sleeve but would look terrible adorning the front of a jersey, again the name Hawks itself would be preferable to that.
  2. The text and new script are the only salvageable part of the new logo and should be highlighted.
  3. https://goo.gl/images/mJDaFF
  4. Can't remember what we paid, but if it was over 2-3 hours at $40/hour we got taken.
  5. Petey is definitely not good at art, but does work with people who are.
  6. Correct. 2 different sentences. My opinion happens to agree with the objective opinions of the vast majority regarding our unfortunate logo.
  7. Yep. I am the only person who thinks are logo is garbage. You win.
  8. I am financially invested and therefore that makes me emotionally invested as well. I stand by my opinion. The logo is trash by any objective standard. The name is a name. Not terrible, not good, just a name. Which was the point of my post...if they hadn't handled the process like a junior high summer marketing project we wouldn't have ended up with a terrible logo and we might have even stumbled our way upon an original name.....or had the common sense to remain just North Dakota until something came along organically.
  9. Kept HRC out of jail.
  10. Former UND athlete and good friends with Tellman. The Grinder was awesome...when I was living back in Bismarck there were a few post bar after hour trips with Evan to the Grinder. Then Jorgy had them at his bar for awhile.
  11. Not to rehash the whole clusterf*ck that led to our current nickname and logo, but in short a batch of names should have been chosen(top 6 or 8) from the initial submission list and vote and then given to companies that specialize in marketing(local or national or even the UND marketing department) at which time they could put together rough logo ideas and marketing plans to go with the names. Then you decide on the entire concept instead of having 9% of those eligible choose a bland, mediocre name and then having one person choose a horsesh!t logo. I am in a business where we sometimes design corporate and team logos for apparel and promotional items. In all honesty, if one of our artists had sent our current logo to me I would have told them to try again and would not have even considered forwarding it on to my business customer or even to the mom of an 8th grade traveling basketball team who was in charge of ordering the uniforms.
  12. In the mid 80's, Gasparini and Behrns had to ban their teams from going out to the bars. Witnessed the football team and hockey team have a pretty good battle royal at the old Bridge bar one night.
  13. After Nashville's first goal on the power play last night, I was thinking yeah let's get some more of those 3 point goals! And then it ended. Stamkos and Karlsson are driving the bus now.
  14. I agree. A. Fix this rift B. Renegotiate the agreement C. Extend the agreement
  15. 2025---renegotiate the terms of the contract. Have the new terms supersede the last 5 years of agreement while extending the contract to 2040. Win/Win
  16. 5. American Bison These large lumbering beasts that roamed the plains are also known to engage in frequent male-male sexual activity. In fact, male on male mounting is more common than male on female mounting in the rutting season, with homosexual mountings making up 55% in semi wild populations. These bulls literally put the ‘bi’ in bison! Some researchers say this is because that females only mate with one male once a year. So, these bulls gotta get it where they can. In young bulls, mounting (with penetration) is common and these homosexual copulations last twice as long as heterosexual encounters. Researchers found that nearly two thirds of all male-male mountings observed were a subordinate male mounting a dominant male. Though homosexual mounting drops significantly as male bison get older. (I’m not gonna lie. I’ve been singing “American Bison” to the tune of “American Women” the whole time I wrote this section.) Not that there is anything wrong with that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oj3VphK9AMk
  17. Hasn't happened yet. I'll let you know when it does.
  18. How will this play out? Some teams benches are getting shorter. What does everyone have going forward. Anyone care to handicap it from here on out. 125 - George M. Bluth F-Forsberg and Kuznetsov D-Subban, Ellis, and Carlson --key players down the stretch are Kuznetsov and Ellis 121 - stoneySIOUX F-Kucherov, Ovechkin, Forsberg, Oshie D-Hedman, Josi, Carlson --only has 2 players in common with GM Bluth so it is wide open 111 - Ray77 F-Kucherov, Forsberg, and Karlsson D-Subban and Josi --would probably need Karlsson to go on a tear to make a move on first. 107 - sioux rube F-Kucherov, Ovechkin, Karlsson, and Johansen D-Josi, Carlson, and Ellis --Ellis, Ovechkin, and Johansen are the keys to making a run 105 - Goon F-Kucherov and Ovechkin D-Carlson --mathematically eliminated from first. 104 - Petey23 F-Kucherov, Stamkos, Forsberg, Johansen, Ovechkin, Karlsson D-Hedman, Subban, Josi, Carlson --has everyone left from original roster. Key players will be Johansen, Hedman, and Stamkos 99 - Siouxper Dave F-Kucherov and Ovechkin D-Josi, Subban, Hedman, and Carlson --tough to move up as too many similar players to those in front 99 - andthehomeoftheSIOUX!! F-Kucherov, Stamkos, Scheifele, Laine, Forsberg D-Hedman, Byfuglien, Subban, and Carlson --Go Jets eh! 97 - The Sicatoka F-Kucherov, Karlsson, Wheeler, Kuznetsov, Forsberg D-Carlson, Hedman, Subban --Wheeler probably needs to win the Conn Smythe
  19. I actually didn't vote for you but the people have spoken.
  20. The best thing about the Hawk Mascot is it will give them something to put on apparel instead of the horrible logo we have.
  21. A well times uppercut would leave his tongue on the ice
  22. Spitting at a cop can get you 10-20 years
  23. And that was after he tried to end his career a minute earlier. On another note, guys who are 6 foot 9 diving is not a good look for the league
