Well was this poll ever stitched up by Oiler fans.
Either that or the Oilers logo is actually just better.
As a Columbus native, I think we have the better logo (and even if you like Edmonton you have to agree it's leaps and bounds over the bug splatter), but I think we got a bad seeding.
An expansion franchise that's yet to taste the postseason is gonna get hammered in a popularity contest when put up against one of the big cup dynasty teams.
GOILERS!
The BJ's logo is better. Plain and simple.
People only voted for the Oilers logo either because they're Oilers fans, or because it is older. Don't vote for a logo because it's a classic. Vote for it because it is the best.
I wish I could have voted down the Columbus logo just out of my pure disgust for it. It looks exactly like an All-Star Game logo. Take a look at the 2001 All Star Game from Denver here

Total rip-off of the Avalanche logo, and the Colorado all-star logo.
