Last year you didn't have an NHL team, so don't complain about the logo, you tiny ungrateful baby.

So it turns out all I had to do to get the most hits this blog has ever seen was post a leak of the new Winnipeg Jets logo! Even after the official brand was released, this site got tremendous amounts of traffic through the weekend.

I love the logo more with each passing minute, and now that I've actually got some Jets merchandise it really starts hitting home for me. As was to be expected, a small segment of people didn't care too much for the logo.

Winnipeg has an NHL team.

Again.

They're called the Winnipeg Jets.

The team's primary colour is blue.

Remind me again what I'm supposed to be disappointed about, exactly?

I think the following image should help put things into perspective.
Even if you're just on the fence with the new logo, you've got to admit that it could have been worse...

A LOT worse!
Now all we need is a Winnipeg Jets jersey leak! Rumour has it those won't be ready for sale until the beginning of October. I've waited 15 years for the NHL to return to Winnipeg.

A few months wait for a jersey is going to be a cakewalk...

PS - The "Complaining" image seen above was sent to me by my good friend, Big Marv. If you're not following him on Twitter, you should (http://twitter.com/#!/BigMarvShow), and if you're not listening to him on HOT 103, well, you ALSO should!

Possible leaked Winnipeg Jets logo

Rumour has it this is a leak of the new logo for the Winnipeg Jets!

What do you think? Classy and timeless? Or a bit too reserved?

Too much like a shoulder patch?
I think once it's on a jersey, it's going to look real sharp whether it's on the shoulder or the front!

The photo isn't of the greatest quality, but to help visualize see the rumoured colour pallette that was leaked last week on jetsowner.com below. The jerseys and logo will primarily be blue and silver, with red trim in the colours and shades below.


And if this isn't legit, it's a pretty good forgery! The silver ring around the logo even has sparkles in it, so you know if it's a fan made mock up they've gone all out.

For full disclosure, I'm not the person who took the photo. I've compiled the above information from various message boards, including Jets Owner and Hockeys Future.
