By the way Jetsowner in its day Kills HFboards. Only there due to this site closing down soon and I need my fix... HF is so over moderated. Jimi you rule! Put up a counter with days left (stole it from river citys page) www.rivercitysports.com/US/index.cfm and it was immediatly locked. Warnings to other new jet HF members for really nothing at all..and god forbid you quote anything from Jetsowner in fact they have a sticky in their rules and regulations. NO QUOTES FROM JETSOWNER you will be given a warning and then banned if you continue...well you are given a deduction in points or something that will end up in a ban.. Looking forward to the new site hope Jimi comes along with it as a mod. Seriously guys..all of you who have bashed Hendrix (Alex) and Ford have no idea...took them for granted...

I have heard a rumor similar to that as well bettman blows. Could be false but I heard rumblings. Sounds like the logo will be out very soon.

Very true. I'm sure almost everyone will be thrilled with the final product. I just hope the jerseys aren't impossible to come by once they are released for sale. Same with the hats and tees, too, I guess. I love and will always wear my old Jets gear, but I can't wait to buy some of the new stuff. Where will be the best place to buy a custom name/number jersey? NHL.com? Or through True North directly at the MTS centre? I'm pretty far from Winnipeg, so I'm hoping I can find some stuff online. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that things aren't backordered right out of the gate, but that's what I'm thinking will happen.

Is there a place we can buy from where all the proceeds go towards the team instead of a middle man?

My source (who hasn't been wrong yet) has said that the Avro design floating on this board is COMPLETELY WRONG. |There is no maple leaf on the logo, the jet is nothing like that has been posted. The colors are dark blue, silver, black, very little red.

I heard "Uptown Sports" alone has ordered 1600 jerseys and will be given only 25% of the order to start because of the demand by Reebok, Est street price 130 ish. Only 3 named jerseys to start with.

I heard this rumour too. The "Jets store" will have a 4-5 day head start on jersey sales over local retailers. It appers that jerseys will initially be in short supply at local retailers and for fans unless TNSE stockpiles them down at the MTSC. Jerseys may also not be available to the public until early October. The original named jerseys are Kane, Buff and Ladd. I do wonder when you will be able to order from shop.nhl.com?

I think a blue/black home jersey will look pretty sweet.

I love how anyone who says anything negative about this supposed logo design is written off as a whiner or a poseur.
I don't like the concept. Deal with it. I will.

I hated the concept on here. I added it to my BBM and now that I look at it every day, I have grown to love it. And it's only been a week.

I was really hoping for the Avro Arrow incorporation:( it doesn't get any more Canadian than that. Best looking jet I've ever seen

Wow. I wanted to resist from posting in this beast of a thread but it just keeps going and going.
For the designers of the logos on here...good job. I appreciate the effort and creativity put forth.
BUT (there is always a but) I really believe the final logo will be vastly superior to the logos floating around here even if they are similar in concept.
I am not going to bash any of them but of all the new Jets logos I have seen all over the internet there is seriously only maybe two that I think looks at all professional enough to be used and even those logos were begging to be tweaked and reworked a bit.
Can't wait to see the final thing! As a Graphic Designer I can be overly critical but in my heart of hearts I believe they are going to deliver something special on this. At least I hope!
