I always thought it was dull. More like a consumer product logo than a sports team logo.

Rip legend. They had the best logo and goal song.

I missed old logo’s as a whole. The newer logos like the Golden Knights and Kraken looks so generic. Like computer generated logos for a sports game.

I’m sad. That logo should be added as flair

This is among one of my favorite team logos. The simplicity and use of negative space makes it pleasing. Another great logo was the Montreal Expos

Great logo, too bad they got shipped to Raleigh

As somebody from Hartford, this man gave us a gift that we still see every day. It’s become a symbol of pride that reminds us all of a time that the city felt more alive. In many ways the city died the day the team left. We still display it, we still wear it, we still love it. Peter Good, thank you. I fell in love with hockey the first time I saw your logo on center ice in the Civic Center.

Listened to Gordy Howe and his sons play on WTIC AM as a boy. Great memories. [https://youtu.be/TJtiepwpKFw](https://youtu.be/TJtiepwpKFw)

Rip. Such a fantastic logo

I love this logo, but I am a bit ashamed to admit how old I was before I finally realized there was a H incorporated into it.
No, I am not a smart person.

I completely just realized there’s a white H in the logo. God damnit

It took me until right now to realize there’s an H in the negative space.

Holy shit, I only just now noticed the “H” for Hartford in the negative space. I’m an idiot.
LilMountainHeadband
I’m 31 and just realized the logo’s negative space creates the H.

Hartford. The Whale. RIP.

He designed the kraken logo? Legend.

SOUND THE FUCKING HORN BOYS.

Yep, top 3 logo for sure with Blackhawks and the Vancouver Canucks skate.
MorrisWanchuk
Great logo and when their AHL team was in Binghamton, NY, the logo was rotated so that the “W” looked like a “B” for Binghamton

Ah. That damn saline solution leaking from my eyes again. That logo meant everything to me as a youngster. And again on the revive here.
