Name This Blog
Thursday · May 1 · 2008 | 12:32 PM PDT 68 Comments
This is my official post announcing my intentions to rename the NHL Tournament of Logos blog. It's a huge task that I cannot undertake on my own.
In the comments of this post, I would like you guys to start putting forth ideas for a new title. After a few days, I'm going to assemble a poll with some of the best options and on the blog's birthday (May 9), announce it's new name!
Here's an important thing to note when coming up with your ideas. Because people have bookmarks, I don't want to change the site's address. So we're staying put at nhllogos.blogspot.com. All I need from you guys is a new title only. (After we have that, we'll hold a contest to design a logo for the blog.)
It's all going to be up to you guys, so let's have your ideas!

Just really an alternative to the 'Third Jersey one.

Explanation - 'NHL, Project Concept' stands for the projects and concept art people put together for their logos, jerseys, etc...
I'm really into "The Fourth Jersey" and "Puck Threads"
NHL Concepts
aka
Fans Know Best
How about "Coolest Graphics on Earth"? (kinda like the NHL's old slogan)
How about National Hockey Logos (nhl)
In honor of your April Fool's post..."Project Runway on Ice!"
Seriously, though, I think either:
Hockey Faceoff
-I like the idea of "faceoff" because it connotes a match up between two teams or two centers and a big part of this site has and will continue to be the polls. By saying "Hockey" faceoff rather than NHL Faceoff, you can merge your other blog into this one for one all encompassing hockey fan's website.
Someone earlier mentioned Restiched, which I really like except it only focuses on the concept art aspect of the site.
or
Threading the Needle
- a perfect pass, or shot, or a sewing term to refer to the jerseys and designs.
I like the idea of using hockey terms...
Light the Lamp
Overtime
Shootout
Not big on the names that just focus on the concept art since this site is so much more. Here are some of my ideas...
1: The Extra Attacker
2: Evolution of Hockey
3: Re-Defining Hockey
4: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
5: Rebirthing the NHL
And my favorite...
PROOF THAT THE FANS ARE REVOLTING
Double meaning there
- fans are starting a revolution against the way the the NHL is now
- fans' ideas posted on this site are crazy/disgusting (Freak Out Friday).
PROOF THAT THE FANS ARE REVOLTING

Off the Top of My Head...
1. NHL Designs Tournament.
Or NHL Designs and Tournament.
2. NHL Tournament of Art.
3. NHL Designs Poll.
4. Tournament of NHL Designs.
5. The Best/Worse Designs in the NHL.
"RESURFACING THE NHL:
One Zamboni at a time"
"FAN DRIVEN: The Ice-stetics of OUR NHL."
"BLUE ICE, BIGGER NETS, AND CONCEPTS"
"THE FIGHT STRAP"
How about the "I love ugly @$$ jerseys and hate the classic uniforms"?
"The Open Skate"
"Two Minutes for Unsportsmanlike Uniform"
"The NHL Uni-pedia"
"The Chris and GheetoFarmBoy NHL Variety Blogospectacuramaganza!"
"The Lightning Look Frightening"
j/k on last two...
How about
"NHL Visionaries"
"Envisioning the NHL"
how about "The Locker Room"?
