New SHL Logo Concept
#31

The site could definitely use some fresh graphics, and this design by Karey is a big upgrade for sure. As he and Samee pointed out, opening this to a contest would be the best idea for finding a new logo. However, I don't think this should be a public vote, or at least not decided by one, this seems like an owner decision.

These are amazing. I really like that you are taking a step into changing how SHL looks for someone who just visited this page for the first time and of course for the community because the old logo is seriously outdated. Graphic design can draw some people in as well as push them away.

Or at least have a vote so the owners can see public opinion but internally have the power to decide.

The ones that Tweedle did are sick. No offense to the OP, I just like how clean Dunn's are.

The logo should emphasize more on the font and the message it gives. at the moment, it doesn't give much info on what the league is. Its a plain bebas font in a badge. We couldn't tell what it is about at first sight. The only hint it gives us is our conception of a sports badge, but other than that, not much.

Anyway, I think its a step in the right direction and the league should open a contest for that.

the real branding pickle here is having a squigly S and a straight H and L
we either gotta get creative with the font choice or switch to the XXXHL

Current logo doesn’t really scream hockey either though?

Maybe this is because I'm a hockey fan but... I always found it super cheesy that the MLB, NBA, and NFL all have some object of the sport in the logo. There's really no situation where our logo is going to stand on its own and confuse the fuck out of people, so I don't think it needs to have a puck or a stick or anything like that, and beyond those options I don't know how else you make the logo tell people what it is.
