| My two cents on the new logo is this, it actually looks like the name Cyclones. A Cyclone as everybody knows is the word for hurricane in the Pacific and a Cyclone does not look like a tornado, however I grew up on the twister logo and yes its difficult to see it go but its whats on the ice that counts. Now do I think they could have done a better design that didnt look like the Carolina Hurricanes yes! Do I like the colors? Yea, especially that grey or silver jersey. I wonder if they had Carolina look over the logo to keep from copyright infringement IMO, it does look close. But I think it wont keep people from getting jerseys, it wont keep people from getting the special jerseys at auction Cincinnatians say so much but do the opposite, its like the Bengals, we go from hating them one year to Who Dey in year two to get rid of the quarterback in year 3 to lets go Bengals, its truly what happens on the ice that counts. |

I know they have been wanting to change it for a long time. They hated the gold in the previous logo/jerseys. I believe they also felt the previous version just didn't look very professional. The last two logos have both looked like bad art projects from an elementary school. |

They could have done a whole lot better. Simply making the old logo more modernized with the new jersey colors would have been great.
A C that looks like a turbocharger and doesn't say Cincinnati or look hockey related is just plain stupid.
So let me get this straight. A C logo doesn't say Cincinnati, but a toothless cartoon of a tornado does?? SMH. You sir, are an idiot. Stick to "racing" toy cars. |

Do you really need to call people idiots and seemingly put down their hobbies (?) to get your point across? |

| I assume that those who dislike the new logo also dislike the Reds logo as they are ither just the stylized C or one with "Reds" inside the C. Guess you would like to see the return of the cartoon character with the mustache |

| The new logo is a much more professional look and feel. In time it will grow on the Cyclones faithful. |

| Sorry, I just can't get excited about it. I may grow to tolerate but that's about it. It has nothing to do with the wholesale change from Twister either but rather that it's a complete knock off of something that's already out there. I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if the marketing firm had an intern simply call up the Carolina Hurricanes and buy one of their rejected logos on the cheap. |

| This is the sort of discussion that shows the off season has dragged on wayyyyyy too long. Anyone in love with the Stanley Cup winner LA Kings colors and logo??. Will be nice to have some real on-the-ice hockey issues to talk about rather than color schemes and graphic design issues. |
