Heartbreaker Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 I figured that with the launch of the Seattle Kraken website, we should start a thread. The draft will be interesting... This isn't too bad, although, I do miss the old two and three colour jersey schemes. https://www.seattlekrakenhockey.com/ Love. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travel_dude Posted July 23, 2020 Report Share Posted July 23, 2020 It's a well thought out design for the logo. The menacing eye. The tentacles forming the S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sak22 Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 I think the logos are both well done, I do like the color schemes, but not crazy about the jersey but won't be in the top of my worsts either. Name will take some time to get used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cross16 Posted July 24, 2020 Report Share Posted July 24, 2020 Pretty well done all around. Name, color scheme, jerseys and even their intro videos. Pretty impressive launch. I was not a fan of the original expansion plans but both Seattle and Vegas have nailed it. It's been really modern, cool and broken the traditional molds in multiple ways that are breathing new life into the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in seriousness that name change needed to happen, its too bad it was caused by sponsors and not the years of calls from those offended, and also shame on the sponsors for needing a social movement to make a stand to make themselves look good, if they actually cared about it they would have done it years ago. A good topic for discussion, maybe in a different thread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it looks more snake like. They could’ve used more tentacles to form the S. Maybe something they can play with for future renditions.

Reading through the article, they say there was a study of their police department that proved their officers were quick to use force which “led to a 2012 decree.” But that quick to use force affects people of colour and the homeless. The decrease in funding only brings their force from 1400 police officers to roughly 1300. Its not a total dissolve of the force. I shouldn’t get too political on this topic because I probably see things clearly differently than most. I don’t believe in no police, but I believe in better police - educating them more, requiring degrees and special sociology and psychology training. They probably do get de-escalating training, but they need to learn a shoot last mentality. I think that in the States a lot of training to become a police officer is an easier process than in Canada. I still wouldn’t say that the police in Canada are perfect either. But de-fund isn’t dissolve. It’s more like, transfer funds and duties to different authorities that are trained for different situations. like wellness checks.... etc. Have a councillor or someone trained to do them more efficiently.

travel_dude Posted August 11, 2020 Report Share Posted August 11, 2020 I will just caution everyone that topics of this nature should probably be in the General Discussions forum. We should try to limit NHL talk to NHL topics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
