I thought it was to symbolize movement.

That was my first thought, too, but the fact that the lines go in front of the puck as well, led m to believe it was more of just a generic background graphic thingy.

Chingas seems pretty confident it's a stick blade though, so I was wondering if maybe the guy who made it explained that it was a blade and I missed it.

Between this thread and the prospect voting threads, we should be able to survive the long summer.

I still think the original logo is the front runner. No offense to any contributors since I couldn't do any better myself but so far I haven't seen anything that really stands on top of it.

It's a puck on the tip of a stick! The fact several CP members can't see this tells me it is time for a new, fresh logo!

To be fair, we haven't seen Dion's offering yet. If the license plate thread is any indication, we're in for some real doozies.

I think post #78 is the winner so far, but will throw one into the ring anyway.

I remember the previous old CP logo that looks like the Ottawa 67's logo, where abouts is that nowadays? theres should be a timeline of each logo that has made it as it unoffical logo of CP.

I really like split98's logo too. Would rather have it say calgarypuck.com across the top though.

Just a rough mockup, but something like this:

1. Slide the stick down through his hand so that it stays at the exact angle it's at, but there's some separation between the blade and the Y. I thought about rotating him a touch, but I love the angle the way it is.
2. Make the red background transparent, so it meshes with the gradient at the top of the website better.

Even if you don't go with my suggestions, I still think this one is easily the best one of the bunch so far.
