Washington Capitals Logo History
January 7th, 2019 Team branding is an inexact science. Too often, constantly changing design trends and the fickleness of fans can either prompt unneeded alteration in a sporting organisation’s aesthetic, or else completely paralyse it. The National Hockey League and its franchises are some of the worst offenders of all, with good designs often...
Chicago Blackhawks Logo History
January 1st, 2019 Let’s face it, we’re all a little tired of the Chicago Blackhawks. Given how often they’re on national television, how many of them were named to the National Hockey League’s Top 100 (despite questionable qualifications) and, of course, the league’s insistence on sending them to every single outdoor game ever, the...

While this might seem like an inexplicable course...
Buffalo Sabres Jersey History

Later, backstopped by Dominik Hasek, arguably the best goaltender of all time, the Sabres of the late...
Washington Capitals Jersey History
October 12th, 2018 Perhaps no team in the National Hockey League had as inauspicious a start as the Washington Capitals. In the entire century-plus of NHL history, the 1974-75 Capitals, one of two expansion teams to enter the league that year (after a horrendously unfair expansion draft from an already depleted league), hold the league’s worst-ever...
