Man i wish i had a shirt with the new logo on it to wear in Ohio. On one of my last days of work in Phoenix before the move, i had it on as i was walking out of the hospital, and someone i had never seen before said 'bet you're happy they're back.' I said 'you're damn right i am!!' Interesting how someone sniffed you out in public as a Jets supporter even though you were going "undercover" there!

as far as the complainers - what do you expect, this is Winnipeg where if everyone was given $1,000 there would be people finding something to complain about. i love the logo and received my Hockey News yearbook in the mail today and what a thrill to read about the Jets!

see what the problem is that most people are stuck back in 1996 where the Original Winnipeg Jets where hear then Left to Glendale , well Folks its time to stop living in the past and live for the Future , this is a whole new franchise , at first when i saw the Logo i did not know what to think about it , but i have gone to like it 100% .

If I hear one more of my friends tell me its not 1996 and your not getting the old logo back,im gonna slap em-lol They seem to think I dont like the new logo cause its not the old one.I never wanted the old one back cause its the past and a dif team.I just have issues with the silver Jet,I like 2/3rds of the logo,but the silver Jet just doesnt make me want to go out and get one.

Top 5 in the league I have no probs with saying I hate 1/3rd of the logo,simple was the way to go,the Jet is just not my cup of tea I guess,and I'll be sticking with the retro 72 logo.I have no issues with ppl who love it. I just have issues with some of my friends who like it (nobody here or on any mess board)that ask me a question,I give them my answer and they call me a whiner cause I dont support it 100%.I had to put up with them being a naysayer for 15 years,and they cant handle my answer because I dont go gaga over the new logo ;D EDIT: But I do really love the shoulder patch or alternate logo,anyone know if those are on shirts or hats yet?

Top 10? Sure. Top 5? No way. Chicago, Boston, Habs, Leafs, Blues, Wings all are ahead, with a few others in the mix, like Calgary, Devils, Flyers and Sabres now that they've gone back to the old logo, as well. I like it, but lets not ovestate matters.

I definitely hear where you are coming from Ducky, those are all great logos, I just don't feel they are necessarily great for the same reasons you might think they are.
I guess its like how I might like meat pizza and you like veggie. We could go on debating my reasons vrs your reasons, so for now I will just agree to disagree. For me we landed top 5.

I didn't mind it when I first saw it...and it has only grown on me more and more with time....to the point I think it is one of the top logos in the league...could definitely see a time many years hence when it is considered a 'classic' logo...it is not a trendy logo...it has a certain timelessness to it...difficult to explain...

Alwys been a Hawaiian fan actually.
But I totally hear you. Design is a hard thing to get agreement on. For me personally, you may notice that each logo I mentioned is even LESS complex than the Jet logo. And 8 of the ten have a direct reference to the city's name in the logo. (yes, the Detroit logo forms a stylized D)
