The existing logo is still the best logo, in my opinion. It would be nice though if the rider could be cropped out of the alternate logo though.
As a Calgarian, Im actually quite disappointed with these logos. Nothing particularly exciting here. Theres a lot you could do to make a cool looking logo with a horse I would have thought.
The old logo is by far the best looking one here.
The only other one I like is Nick Esposito's. Thought he horse shiloutte reminds me a lot of the Calgary Stampeders, dont know if that was the intent of the design.
Some real potential with all the new submissions but the Current logo still stands tall to me. Its always been one of the better logos in the league, especially with the new/better flowing name.
I always thought of a stallion as being "wild". Only Woods, Morgan, and Esposito have a wild look to them yet they're getting plenty of negative votes?
Five different versions of the same logo. Boring, bad, and what can you do with a stallion anyway? Not even commenting individually.
Johnny Woods' Wyld Stallyn's is the best, lol. I actually like it because it looks way different than all the others. gotta stand out
I don't want to keep banging the Whalers-logo drum, but the less details I use, the more the C-S legs stand out.
Really like Johnny's here. It's bold and unique; the legs are clever but most importantly I think it looks good! In an old school Coyotes way, but good!
I agree with A on this. As a Native Calgarian I was very disappointed in the designs. None of them stand out to me or look meaningful in any way. I liked Nick Esposito's Primary Logo, but was dissapointed by the secondary marks.
I think the current logo is going to win this, for lack of a better replacement.
Good ideas: Liam's use of the Tower - clever. Johnny's CS legs. Still like the current - spikes!!!
Bad ideas: Nick's reminds me too much of Dallas Burn's soccer club. Jake's mane has a reason? Flames or just random?
Calgary's designs are a real mixed bag. The original look stand tallest to me, with Esposito and McElroy rounding out my top 3.
The original design from Chris Smith just works, it's one of the better ones in the league and if we've been given a name that works with that set, I say let's keep what we can.
Esposito and McElroy's design are just not my cup of tea, but they're not bad designs. Esposito's is just a bit too bland for my liking and I think the horse on McElroy's is a bit cartoony looking. The latter is a pitfall every horse head outside of the original falls into, but on this submission, it's not as bad as it is in some other cases.
I loved Johnny Woods logo here (as well as on quite a few others). That's where I voted, for the record.
