Generally, new expansion teams and their logos and jerseys have been blah - see Vegas Knights, Tampa Bay Rays, Houston Texans.

However, the Seattle Kraken crushed it imo. Both home and away looks great imo.

Picking a good color combination is 90 percent of the battle

That’s cool. But I don’t know why you are hating on Vegas. There’s is badass also.

Love the logo and the anchors. I’d get rid of the light blue and stick with just seafoam green.

Seattle is another city where the pro teams have similarish colors.

Love the Kraken jerseys but I’m also a fan of the Golden Knights jerseys. Are those not liked by many?

Yes, but if you let your eyes wander, it also looks could be seen as the tongue of a Derpish Serpent.

I like the color scene but the logo is too contemporary to age well.

If they consistently rebrand they’ll be Ok but this logo will look dated in 6-7 years.

Tend to agree, although it's well executed for what it is

They'll easily be able to rebrand this because it's simple.

I can already see an Olde English font style of this version as a "throwback" logo and some crazy late 90s/early 00s third jersey with the actual sea monster.

They have lots of options here.

I heard so many people hate on the name and I don’t understand why. It’s such a dope mascot.

This is what I wish New Orleans would’ve done when they rebranded the hornets. Go with something more unique like rougarou. I think it brings more flare when the mascots something more unique. I get there’s no other pelicans in pro sports but it doesn’t fit for basketball IMO and it had been done in New Orleans before.

Anchors are badass, but they really should have used an kracken and not just some tentaciles.

As long as any opponent has ten pennies, the Rougarou are screwed.

You don’t get many new logos/jerseys that look good these days. This is a huge win in that department.

Most of the best “new” jerseys that come out these days are just the old jerseys a team used to wear that got replaced by something far shittier for a few years so nike could sell New Jersey’s and then recycle old designs to sell more New Jersey’s. Rinse. Repeat.

I would have rather had the same execution with the alliteration of Seattle Squid.

This is a really sharp look. The Knights did a great job, as well.

There are some sharp looks all around in the league, right now. Columbus and Florida nailed their rebrand, but I do wish Tampa brought back the Lecavalier/St Louis style black and blue jerseys and logo.

They’d have to be careful. The octopus is already the mascot of the Detroit redwings.

It’s easy but expensive and teams don’t do it as often as they should.

The Falcons come to mind. Always going with super trendy unis but not changing them anywhere near enough.

All the football teams that added paneling in the early 2000s should have gotten rid of that like 6 years ago and were only now starting to see the changes from Atlanta and Cincy. The Patriots just updated their uniform but their logo is still weak.

I do ‘t think the Pelicans stuff will age well.
The rockets and hawks aren’t going to age well.
