You needed to keep reading in that thread. That kid only drew a design for Wregget's mask, not the new (at the time) logo...

The contest was to design Ken Wregget's mask for the upcoming season and this was the winner:
I recall the second place entry was simply the new horsehead logo (that was introduced earlier that summer?) covering the entire mask. I remember being pissed that it got second place because it showed virtually no creativity. In any event, I am 100% certain that the logo did not get designed through that contest... |
Also, as Table 5 pointed out in that thread, considering what McFarlane came up with as a third jersey for the Oilers, I'd say we dodged a bullet on not getting his "free" design.
