SonOfJack 2,591 Posted July 23, 2020 Author Share Posted July 23, 2020 I love the name and the colors. Need more time to ponder the logo, but the uniform could be awesome. Lots to work with there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lots to work with there. I'm sure they'll have a more elaborate logo with the full name but that logo above is perfect for simplicity, like a cap logo in baseball. The only problem with the Kraken name is that its logos can easily become too cartoony and over the top like a minor league team so they gotta be real careful with that.

FishFan95 703 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I hear the early nicknames for the arena and fan-base are Krakhouse and Krakheads respectively. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

hovertical 229 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I don't like that logo at all but I really dig the name. Release the Kraken is an easy rally cry and there are so many ways to inspire the fanbase. As a perk, all those tentacles might bring a lot of anime *cough*hentai*cough* nerds who normally abhor sports into the arena. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rmc523 578 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 The top of the anchor looks to recreate the space needle, which is a nice touch. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SilverBullet 2,712 Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I love all of this. Again, it's the simplicity. Hockey logos and uniforms and expansion teams in general tend to be too over the top and this one is perfectly restrained. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't actually followed hockey since the 90s though so I'm probably thinking more of that era of hockey and its logos. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
