Reacting to NHL Hybrid Logos! WOW! (West)

[@mikenike97L6]

This creator needs to work for the League. These were all fantastic. There wasn't one that I even was indifferent towards. Even if all weren't logo worthy, for branding sake, EVERY team in the league needs to work with this guy.

[@DarkHorse902]

That nashville logo was definitely the best from both sets. It was very detailed simplicity at it's best!

[@andersnilsson8303]

Two great videos of Eric's work and some sensational creations in there. He's so talented. Hats off!

[@kj6446]

whomever takes over making jerseys for the NHL needs to hire this guy...instead of a reverse retro series, it's blended jerseys for all teams...make it happen

[@JPS47]

All of these logos I could see used at least as shoulder patches. They're that good. My favorite has to be the Ottawa burger king logo. I can see that on the uniforms they had in the early 2000's before they switched to the current uniforms. Very well done.

[@iem123]

This whole series is phenomenal. You should have more concepts from this guy

[@allanwhite5747]

Why is this guy not working for the NHL designs department for any NHL clubs? He is off the chain AWESOME!

[@mattm6580]

Loved Seattle and Chicago. The beak on the hawk formed a C for Chicago. And the eyes on the kraken logo are much eerier here than the NHL version.

[@jasonwkamigaki2688]

3:19 The C in the beak for Chicago is brilliant! It would make a great secondary logo itself.

[@rbluesu44]

This person, who designs the first and second are awesome! Someone NHL team or AHL team should hire this person to do some graphic design!

[@rjsquad5046]

Vancouver needs to you this logo please

[@rjsquad5046]

Arizona has Changed there logo so what happened it should be there new logo with something else

[@landen3578]

Very nice work on all the concepts in both videos Eric.

[@mattzzx1]

I don’t think you mentioned it but the hawks logos beak was shaped like a c for Chicago which makes it even nicer. That logo is clean!

[@Beavie]

The debate for Chicago's logo will rage on no matter what. As someone who has done some studying in relation to Indigenous relations, I can understand sentiments around cultural appropriation. But the decision whether or not to change it will, and should always go down to how the communities who's culture they borrow from feel and how they feel may change over time. That being said, IF Chicago ever rebrands to remove the Blackhawk head, but keep a hint of Indigenous representation, THAT CONCEPT by the artist here seems like a perfect combination of the two. It is fierce, proud, pays tribute but doesn't stereotype. Most of all, it is a badass logo I could see on any hat or jersey. I also have to give a BIG shout out to the LA/Ottawa hybrid logo along with the Nashville/Buffalo one. Both of them work so freaking well.

[@ShikamaruNara-]

As a Kings fan, I absolutely love the GigaChad Kings logo. Let’s bring back the burger king jersey style with this logo on it !

[@kyleshreve9913]

I've watched a ton of these concept videos, and this one is one of the best, some of the coolest designs I've seen.

[@maximilianmaier3950]

The fact that he put himself in a constraint by merging 2 existing logos and wasn't free to come up with something completely new and still managed to put out logos that are better than the original ones is insane

[@jacklichtenstein19]

I can’t even believe these. Some of the best sports graphic art I’ve ever seen in my life, and I’m a graphic designer

[@chadcousins2563]

The absolute best concepts I’ve ever see period. AMAZING job!!!

[@Piper_____]

I agree that the head is a bit weird, but I love the San Jose logo! I love that sort of design, and so seeing it applied to the sharks logo made me happy :)

[@Toddis]

I was really surprised, confused really, that you picked the Seattle one

[@donalddelia4060]

The Nashville Logo looks like Diego from Ice Age.

[@catironcatoire3840]

I like what they did with the Phoenix Coyotes logo the way they use the crescent moon for an eye very clever

[@mikespeed1089]

That original Nashville RR might be the best yellow jersey ever

[@aaronwinterfield1254]

I’m pretty sure that the Avs mascot’s name is Bernie

[@bruxi78230]

Right, Bernie the Saint Bernard

[@Toddis]

I loved the coyotes x sharks logo

[@keithm9835]

This artist needs to send some resumes to nhl teams, those and the last video were amazing!!!

[@d.c.courtney4953]

I saw some of these on reddit weeks ago, and I'm glad to see them all. This series was amazing. Coyotes, Preds, amd Canucks are my favorites but I love that Chicago one. If we rebrand it should be as simple as switching that logo onto our beautiful jerseys.

[@grahamhulse6622]

Omg Eric is AMAZING!! AWESOME job with these they’re so great

[@shelboo_91]

3:21. I can’t believe I noticed this but in the Blackhawk the mouth is a c for Chicago. Even if he didn’t mean to do it.Same thing for the coyotes.

[@JasperFitz1973]

The best concept videos I have seen on your channel. What an unbelievably talented guy. How is he not working for the NHL in some capacity?

[@jeffreyCD33]

This guy nailed every concept

[@JustMikeTV]

The Anaheim logo, I believe, was the first logo he made in this series for a real team. It got so much feedback so he started this series. Also the Blackhawks logo makes a C with the beak.

[@SpDubb1995]

The oil Derrick on the left had an E in it

[@fusionmvp]

I love the skates that were on the Duck's feet as well. Very Subtle!

[@edwardburek1717]

All these concepts are absolutely amazing. Has anyone told Chris from Icethetics about this?

[@ezwelchman]

Now someone needs to make jersey concepts with these

[@14cole19]

Oh man 100%!!!

[@XconnorX11]

Literally all of these were incredible

[@chrisdavis273]

Avs mascot used to be a yeti. That’s why the yeti foot was on the shoulder

[@kalemacpherson1542]

The Aves mascot originally was Howler the Samsquanch

[@BoiledEgg74]

Missed the "C" as Chicago for the Caps/Hawks hybrid. ;-)

[@johnnielsen7413]

FINALLY some unique ideas - well done! The Blackhawks should adopt this one immediately.

[@RoyalMela]

13:15 Is that a land shark?

[@Bends95]

Stellar work yet again Eric…well done!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@SM-jw1vv]

The mouth of the Arizona logo is actually making a "C" for Coyotes. So there is a slight design there.

[@Baz1ngaboi]

Why can’t these AMZING WORKS OF ART not been turned into the normal logos

[@elijahperez6506]

That Nashville is light years beyond what they have now

[@jzb2414]

That Coyotes one is amazing.

[@rodgilbert2226]

There is such an obsession with change and rebrands these days, have fun with these videos and competitions and then let it go cause originality is timeless, NHL has it nailed down already.

[@carlosnavarrojr1080]

I love the Nashville logo

[@steviepea1302]

Did U make a video for the WHL concepts ? I caught the one's for the OHL and the Q ...

[@Mr.Bibleman]

Incredible designs just like the last video.

[@kistar3460]

So many awesome logos, I want Eric to make a new logo from the whalers logo, and mix it with any logo in the NHL

[@jonjanson2]

The mouth for both Chicago and the Coyotes make a “C” 6:13

[@djmck1973]

The Arizona blank space, the mouth was done in a C

[@RogueKT21]

Seattle I kind of see a port hole window. Looks cool! Chicago the mount forms a “C”. Coyote mouth also forms a “C” and the river in the original Wild logo looks like a”M”. Whether that was the intend on those?

[@JaffaJannu]

@10:20 I'd say that this Burger King logo has a stern look. @10:50 I would personally change that spoked wheel for a helm. Yet again it might become too busy.

[@NickAdams1981]

As for the Coyotes with Minnesota inspiration: could the negative space be a canyon? Perhaps the Grand Canyon? Just a hunch...

[@stevejones6247]

that's a cool drawing for Arizona

[@JesusLovesYouPerfectly]

to me, the best ones were the Jets, Kraken, and Predators. those were absolutely dope.

[@stevejones6247]

that's a cool drawing for Colorado

[@gamerkidl4144]

I’m a oilers fan and I love the fisher man + the oil worker

[@monarched]

If these logos are something to behold...imagine how they would look on an actual jersey. Any chance the designer could take a shot at that?

[@cope847]

That Ducks/Pens logo reminds me of the old Mighty Ducks cartoon.

[@mikekoloski]

Coyote negative space around mouth looks like a C

[@rogueintellect]

I was going to mention that as well. Good catch!

[@ogam5]

.....Eric, Neal is right about BOTH the Kraken but ESPECIALLY, Jets redesigns - DEFINITELY should approach their front offices with them, ASAP - but, ONE recommendation as to the latter: EXTEND the plane's white contrail ALL the way around - though increasingly NARROWING as it nears its front end.....

[@quinnxia]

The avalanche mascot is dog but used to be a yeti

[@jerms6667]

The Kings n Predators logo's were the 👌 👌

[@johnparsons1573]

Can Eric have a video once a month. These are awesome

[@monorail4252]

Golden Knights name in Lights

[@CassKitz]

Seems like the negative space in the arizona rebrand could be a "C" for coyotes? Seems too accurate and intentional. Good job

[@PipeBockhodt81]

Bernie the St. Bernard is the Avs mascot

[@thornsofchaos]

This video was amazing the expression and reaction was amazing

[@ogam5]

.....Neal, you didn't make NOTE of it - but, both the Blackhawk & Coyote's mouths are SHAPED like 'C's.....

[@Goncalo.]

this guy is a genius

[@frankym69]

The S Seattle logo would look amazing as a center ice logo so they can do more... Cleveland Monster-esk style play off intro promos. 10 out of 10. I can't really pick a fav.

[@xeiAiex]

Chicago logo is perfect.

[@NickAdams1981]

I think Winnipeg's my top choice for this; it's different, but it still works so well for the current Jets branding!

[@ryanbeck6557]

2 AWESOME AWESOME videos!! I’d love to see him do the same thing with NFL and NBA logos. And see you check them out 👍

[@mikenoyes6685]

Honestly that Seattle one should be the real one with the inspiration from bruins that would be awesome same exact thing on the jersey perfect love how it works out but I'm a bruins fan to the heart and I'd buy that

[@dawsondermatas13]

How is this guy so good.!!!???

[@kj6446]

re blackhawks...and the beak makes a "C", re: wild...the off white river was the "W" not the green....Re: Kraken ...they could use that with the tentacles wrapped around the spokes of a ships wheel and it would would out just as well (and not tick of the Bruins)

[@ericpoole4628]

Thanks again for the video. My faves in this bunch pretty much match yours. Canucks #1, Jets #2. I do however really like my Wild logo. I think because it is so simple, but actually has a lot going on. The North Star overhead, twin trees that make an M, and the W in the stream. All you need! I can understand why people may not like it though. Dallas I won’t argue. I just really dislike their actual logo, so this may have been my subtle attempt to create a straight redesign. I do like it, but again, no harm if you don’t.

[@edwardburek1717]

Absolutely magnificent work on both videos Eric.

[@rjsquad5046]

Seattle needs to use that please do

[@Peacy27]

Nashville oh my oh my... WOW.

[@tobykicker83]

NHL, give this man a job !!!!!

[@wyattfriedt5446]

Again, genuinely stunned by these. So many big-brain decisions.

[@modi827]

Blues also has the St. Louis arch. Coyotes and hawks have a C in the mouth.

[@hectorgonzales837]

Ava mascot is Bernie

[@Mr-mopar]

Seattle , black hawks, La kings.

[@shaditude3461]

Avs Mascot: Bernie the St. Bernard

[@joeynova9896]

Canucks logo is fire! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@stevejones6247]

Nashville is kinda neat

[@MinnesotaArcticBlast]

Man these are good He needs send this stuff to the NHL the Predators logo is awesome and I like the Kings with out that little part with the la kings font on it . They are all good other then Sharks and Wild

[@LadiesMan-me2gd]

"Oh my goodness he is thick" ahhaahah

[@JD200_]

That’s what she said

[@indigoj]

These are better than the logos they’re really using.

[@rjsquad5046]

Nashville needs to use that logo please do

[@mikemigirov7900]

The negative white color in the mouth of Minnesota wild is a lake. Because Minnesota is known for lakes

[@MarcoCostantini33]

Can you do goalie set ups pls like custom ones

[@Kachna1989]

This is probably the first time I completely disagree with the favourite one, the Kraken one was way to busy for me. For me the best one would be either Avs or Canucks but most plausible goes to the Blackhawks.

[@robserrano8971]

Remember Vegas can't spell KNIGHTS without KINGS... HAHAHAHAHA
