Simplifying it takes away from that IMO.

Rangers have the most continually improved logo over time.

I believe the middle is also supposed to represent a puck. It's the world's most poorly-drawn puck, but a puck nonetheless.

They're forgetting the best logo of all time, IMO:

Yeah, the eye of the hurricane is supposed to be a puck. Though less of an 'eye puck', it is aesthetically better when it's more subtle.

Thinking of the eye as a puck, btw, look at how off the 3D is of that logo. It's as if the puck and the hurricane are different perspectives. Just terrible.

Cleaned up (as Nashville did) keeps the established identity, and while giving the worst looking team in the NHL a bump in looks. It still won't be the best, mind you, but it won't be an eyesore.

That is hilariously bad. How had that gotten though an entire team of designers and management? I'll guarantee it came up, but someone made the argument that 1 flag looks better... and he somehow won.

Look at how tattered it is. Obviously, the second flag blew away with the force of the storm...or maybe this is the one that blew away and that's why someone tied it to a hockey stick.
