Either way, I’d be surprised if Dundon didn’t tell them to drop the #Redvolution campaign and come up with something fresh.
Probably. Michael Smith has been hinting it might be changing for a while on the podcast. I think it's cool to have something carry over for multiple seasons, but it never had the success of "Rock the Red" for instance. Granted, we've sucked, and it was a mediocre at best tagline.

I feel like they’ve generally done OK with branding campaigns, but it’s a lost cause when the team is bad. When the tagline gets associated with failure, it’s counterproductive to keep rolling it out.

Pretty sure they rolled out #redvolution with the idea that the team would be on a strong upward arc by this time. In reality, not so much.

The worst was when they rolled out THIS IS HOCKEY right before they went into the gutter. Became a parody of itself almost immediately

Someone pointed on That one of the pictures might be a Canes wordmark. I’m liking what I see so far but if a wordmark alone is on the front I’ll be pissed.

Edit. Well looking at it, it might be a helmet logo. Doesn’t look stitched on and it looks like we are seeing some of the gloves too in the pictures.

Someone on Reddit claimed to know someone who'd seen it. Said it was pretty much the same as the old black but with no triangle behind the flag. I'm intrigued by this idea and never would have considered it. I like the triangle but don't know if it's necessary.

If true people will read into it as "Dundon is subtly signaling f*** the research Triangle, he's moving the team to Houston as soon as he can"

Do you think they would replace Triangle with outline of North Carolina or NC & SC outline just spitballing

If they wanted to be realistic, they should find an outline for the city limits of Raleigh because lets face it that is where fandom of this team ends.

And hell no to SC being part of any logo. Those chuckleheads aren't even aware there is a hockey team up here.
