Florida Panthers completely changing jersey (logo leaked post 661)

[cptjeff]

They're kinda like cougars.

If by "kinda like", you mean "a subspecies of", you'd be correct.

If I'm not mistaken, this cat is much bigger than the so-called Black Panther(Jaguar), right?

Black Panthers aren't their own species, just a color variation that some species under the Panther umbrella have. In the Americas, they're Jaguars, which are slightly larger than Mountain Lions/Cougars/Pumas/Catamounts/Florida Panthers. Black Panthers from Africa and Asia are Leopards, and are about half the size of either.

The logo isn't the problem, but the jersey and colours could use an edit. Like brighten it up, and tone down the navy.

 

[Kranix]

Under medieval belief, after feasting, the panther will sleep in a cave for a total of three days. After this period ends, the panther roars, in the process emitting a sweet smelling odor. This odor draws in any creatures who smell it (the dragon being the only creature immune), they are eaten by the panther, and the cycle begins again.

The New uniforms should have red flames, a gold crown and red, blue, green, purple and black spots

 

[McPuritania]

I like their current logos. It's the colour, and striping design that need to be overhauled.

 

[Jacob]

Panthers are a fully black cat.

Sure thing pal.

 

[Captain Bowie]

The logo is OK, the colours are ugly. It is such a bad shade of red. That is what needs a change more.

Here are some concepts I really like.

Lighten the red up to more of an orange, go for a tropical kind of scheme:

Or go back to dark blue mains, with red and yellow accents:

I'd love to see something like that on an ECHL team or something. Hey, I've seen much worse!

Could be the Orlando BITE, ECHL affiliate of the Panthers.

The top home sweater reminds me of the Spanish national team's soccer jersey

Love this one. I think you need to make a red one too.

 

[lawrence]

in a marketing point of view, its not a bad move. I'm sure they are aware that the logo is looks fine. it will to some extent stimulate some jersey purchases. I always liked their colors, their road colors (white jerseys) look real good actually. oh wells.

The real strategy can be summed up in a Futurama episode parodying Coca-Cola/Pepsi:

Slurm Queen: "You'll be submerged in Royal Slurm, which in a matter of minutes will transform you into a Slurm Queen like myself!"
Glurmo Half: "But your Highness, she's a commoner. Her Slurm will taste foul."
Slurm Queen: "Yes. Which is why we'll market it as New Slurm. Then, when everyone hates it, we'll bring back Slurm Classic and make billions!"

They're already planning to bring back the 1993 jersey as a 3rd jersey. Depending on how well the new one goes, I can see the 3rd outselling it.

They've already been through the whole: we changed the jersey look, but then we changed it again to remove the piping and go back to red. Here's hoping they can do better than the "JetBlues".

Win. i'd buy that in a heartbeat.

And the Panther head is a complete change from what the team has used before. The new Panther is said to look more natural, like the big cats who roam the Everglades. The Canadiens' style horizontal stripe across the jersey is what they're going with. The biggest change in the color palate apparently is blue is being minimized, red is the signature color and the yellow gold is going to be a much deeper gold. Now I still haven't seen the new look so I'm going on vague descriptions from those who have.

Nice. I like the addition of the chest stripe.

 

[FerrisRox]

I hate the fact that they will probably go too simplistic with the logo.

Very odd to have these two words describing the same thing.

 

[KingsKnight]

Well, it started out as a third. But then they made it the mains and didn't have a red at all. If the blues were just the 3rds I wouldn't have had a problem with it. Red is our teams' color, they should have never have stopped that.

The jerseys should be something like this:

Some variation of that, maybe modernize it, and roll with that.

Looks great. Wish they would keep some of that iconic look.

 

[WingsFan95]

One of my favourite logos in sport.

They should just have Black and Gold for the backdrop.

That actually sounds pretty cool. Interested in seeing how it turns out.

 

[Kimota]

You are, it's quite the opposite in fact.

I hardly think you can get any bigger than this feline unless you're a lion or tiger.

Alright thanks. That's what I was wondering cause African Black Panthers have never seemed to be like big felines.

 

[Ekblast]

Taken from a post by EnforcetheLaus on ours boards. What you think of these?

 

[Legionnaire]

Looks like a German football club logo. I don't hate it I guess.

They should do the opposite. Change the colors and keep the logo.
