Flyers vs Rangers

The Aesthetics
Both logos symbolize storied franchises but as I've said many times before, words can kill the aesthetics of any logo. That and I love subtle letters such as the "P" in the Flyers logo.

The Nickname
As with any bird, it's the job of a Ranger to protect the Flyer, who therefore has the upper hand.

The Analysis
Quite honestly, red, white and blue have never been such important colors to New York City than in the aftermath of the attacks of 9/11. That makes the Rangers colors very significant. Meanwhile, the Flyers logo doesn't go a very long way to symbolize its home city of Philadelphia.

The Flyers logo has a "P" in it. That stands for Philadelphia.
This is true and I've brought that up on several occasions. My meaning was going toward something a little more symbolic — perhaps like the Liberty Bell. Thanks for the comment!
