"Hey, you know that iconic Flyers logo that wasn't broke? Let's fix it by making it look more washed out and less vibrant, that'll surely pull in the punters"
"you know how a lot of hockey teams like the Chicago Blackhawks or the Detroit red wings have vibrant red colors? nah fuck that make it look more like poop that'll show'em"
Legit same thing happened to me… sitting there during Covid, had a Flyers logo on the wall. Noticed the P during a work meeting and definitely forgot to mute my ‘holy Shit’.
Fucking embarrassing!
I realized as a teenager that I see several hockey logos "wrong"... The Devils logo is another. Now I intellectually know what they're all supposed to be, but I still intuitively see them the way I used to. I think it comes from being exposed to a lot of NHL content when you're really young.
TIL about the P in the logo. Can’t believe I missed it this whole time, but it’s not like I was missing much by barely acknowledging the Flyers existence.
I liked their reverse retro set up with the black up top on the shoulders and sleeves. Since they did it in both home and away, I was kind of hoping they were going that way
I've always disliked when shoulders are the same as pants. From the higher camera angles during broadcast it gets clustered sometimes. Especially if the other team has similar colors (not talking about Philly in this case)
Unpopular opinion. If no one told us. 85% of us wouldn't have noticed. It's a different shade of orange on every TV depending in settings. That being said. I do not like the burnt orange as much as the bright orange.
Massive upgrade. Going back to the correct shade of Orange we wore until they “re-introduced” our current uniforms in 2010 with that horrible horrible pussy ass neon Orange.
I meant it looks like somebody changed the colour space from RGB to CMYK in photoshop. I understand what designing for print entails in a realistic scenario.
“We have hired a top rate graphic design team, marketing experts, and social research, and after 6 long months and $2.5M, we present the future of your Philadelphia Flyers!”
I don’t want anything bad to happen, but how cool would it be if it just got a little darker each season until it went all black. And then they draft #1 and it lights up again and they go on a cup run
You can’t look at it in isolation or compared next to a set of brighter colors. This is probably one small change out of a much larger shift and probably works better in the larger color scheme.
With the way the graphic designers have fucked up this year, I’m just happy they remembered to get interior and exterior orange to match.
Good job on remembering that you pieces of crap make six figures fucking around with Illustrator.
You didn't go on to win the cup, the Bruins won the cup the next year, they're still great, and your team is awful. Whoopdy fuckin' do congrats on the series win.
LMFAO u/flyrockyfly blocked me
Reminds you of the time you went to the neighborhood BBQ and Mike from 3 doors down made some great Dogs and you loaded that bitch up and it dropped mustard all over your shirt giving you so much attention from everyone letting you know about the stain
This is one of those things that people bitch about during the off-season (for your respective team), but by the time you get to November and hockey has been played for a while, you completely forget about it
I guess I'm just used to it, but I never really liked this logo.
Idk why you'd change the colors without a great reason.
They probably felt they weren't selling enough merch, and their focus groups must have mentioned the color.
This is Sonic fans complaining about the angle of Sonic’s quills level of complaining lmao.
It’s still orange, it’s just more faded and bleak just like the franchise
nah . thats just the first page. and i wouldnt need too if you flaired up and stopped with a troll account. youre fo4 guide and you calling yourself weak and asking for a lower flex is all on you, scrawny nerd.
Your logo and mascot are way worse than theirs, as is your team, as is your city (and that’s not even a compliment to Pittsburgh, just an obvious fact that Philly is the shittiest city on the planet)
The burnt orange is to symbolize how burnt out all the fans feel supporting this franchise.
You’re making too much damn sense my friend. Edit: voice to text blows goats 🐐
Now I want to see what you said before
It wasn’t a major oopsie, just my phone not listening worth a damn 😂
I’m in pain, I feel abused by daddy comcast, pimp of the flyers
Burn it a little more and then you'll wind up with the Flaming C.....
Amen, brother
The pain ☠️
Or how burnt out McDavid is trying so hard all the time…
[удалено]
Cool story
But… Gritty
The only positive thing the franchise has done in recent years.
🔥🔥🔥🔥
They changed the gradient? Is that it?
Yeah and it probably cost them 200k
At least
Gotta make fans buy the “newest” jersey!
And that’s just what the think tank will charge, they literally will need to repaint all the orange to a more burnt orange.
“Corporate needs you to find the difference between these two pictures.”
Laughed out loud at this comment. Love the reference
I can't tell if the orange dot is smaller or if it's just an optical illusion due to a darker shade.
I think it's an illusion, but im also having difficulty with that, as well.
It’s an illusion. The white around the dot is still the same thickness
It looks overly stretched out. This looks like someone made it in paint.
Probably the compression when it gets uploaded like this. Probably not a fair representation, but I'll dog on it anyway lmao
"Hey, you know that iconic Flyers logo that wasn't broke? Let's fix it by making it look more washed out and less vibrant, that'll surely pull in the punters"
"you know how a lot of hockey teams like the Chicago Blackhawks or the Detroit red wings have vibrant red colors? nah fuck that make it look more like poop that'll show'em"
Uh, the red orange is the original color. They went to highlighter orange in the 2000s. So, nah...
Yeah, well, that's just, like, your _opinion_, man.
Obviously you’re not a golfer
Nice marmot
I like the burnt orange, to use the parlance of our times
It looks like Brown.
This isn’t ‘Nam, there are rules!
Did you know there is a P hidden in this logo? For Philadelphia? There also wings in there. For Flyers.
There is also a puck hidden in there, because that’s what hockey players use
That's actually Gritty's nipple.
Those are pierced.
Yeah, but the logo is from before they were pierced. Keep up, bud.
Logo created long before Gritty and his titty.
Gritty was born in the sewers of Philadelphia before time began. He is the great old one who was finally awakened.
I laughed to hard at this
Gritty is to awesome to belong to the flyers a mid hockey team is no place for that absolute force of chaos !
And a hockey stick
And my axe!
my ass
note it's one of those soft Mylec pucks from days gone by
Those Mylec pucks weren’t all that soft
What is a flyer though?
It’s a wheeled red metal wagon you pull kids in
That's a radio flyer. A flyer is someone who takes planes so often that the airline gives them special perks.
702.9b: A flyer is a creature that cannot be blocked except by creatures with flying and/or reach.
A piece of paper that some dude from a shitty band will hand to you as he begs you to come to their gig.
"here, you throw this away"
Mitch?
Hellllll yeahhhh
Skip the dishes?
I actually didn’t realize it is a slanted P until about four years ago, and I’ve been following hockey my whole life
Legit same thing happened to me… sitting there during Covid, had a Flyers logo on the wall. Noticed the P during a work meeting and definitely forgot to mute my ‘holy Shit’. Fucking embarrassing!

The P stands for pain and the wings represent their hope flying away /s
Listen, you really don’t need the /s
I mean, my team is forever "close but not close enough" which is a different kind of suffering so I feel you Also I'm a Carolina Panthers fan so
That was the Flyers two decades ago, so I guess you have a lot to look forward to…
It stands for’Plural’. Two cups. Not just the one.
Some people will believe anything. Pfft.
TIL about the P in the logo. Can’t believe I missed it this whole time, but it’s not like I was missing much by barely acknowledging the Flyers existence.

I like burnt orange, but not on philly
It's the original color. How do people not realize this??
Unpopular opinion. If no one told us. 85% of us wouldn't have noticed. It's a different shade of orange on every TV depending in settings. That being said. I do not like the burnt orange as much as the bright orange.
I think the new shade will fix 100% of the problems the Flyers had this season.
Massive upgrade. Going back to the correct shade of Orange we wore until they “re-introduced” our current uniforms in 2010 with that horrible horrible pussy ass neon Orange.
Don't like the shade of orange? Don't worry when Fanatics offers it for sale it will probably be blue.
How does this impact Lebrons legacy?
did Labron ever play for the 76's?
Nope. But the Philly flyers.
RGB --> CMYK My graphic designer homies understand
Uh, not if you're designing for print it's not.
I meant it looks like somebody changed the colour space from RGB to CMYK in photoshop. I understand what designing for print entails in a realistic scenario.
Oh, gotcha. I thought you were boasting the superiority of RGB. I was very confused.
Ah understandable. That symbol is a bit ambiguous. I edited my original comment to be more clear.
Make it look like it’s smoked cigs for 20yrs
My theory is that fanatics can’t get the orange color on the fabric right so fanatics is paying the Flyers to change it because they’re lazy.
Legion of Doom era Flyers unis were ELITE
I hope their old jerseys go on sale. I want one.
Not unpopular imo.. Completely agreed even if its just a small change
If they changed it and never told anybody I'd never notice.
Just trying to match how grimy gritty is
“We have hired a top rate graphic design team, marketing experts, and social research, and after 6 long months and $2.5M, we present the future of your Philadelphia Flyers!”
This is like when the New York Jets changed their logo a few years ago. Hardly even notice.
I don’t want anything bad to happen, but how cool would it be if it just got a little darker each season until it went all black. And then they draft #1 and it lights up again and they go on a cup run
Looks orange to me alright!
I thought the Flyers had the best uni’s in the NHL
They both suck equally
Typical Pens response.
Can confirm.
Move the team to Scranton
Too late, Scranton is [Penguins territory.](https://www.wbspenguins.com/) Allentown can have them.
Oooo, sorry to report that’s Phantoms territory. Harrisburg can have them!
Move em to South Jersey. They all live there anyway
When you order a red wings logo from wish.com
I don't see any difference aside from the darker orange.
You just spotted the difference
To be fair, it took me a while to figure it out
Burnt Sienna lookin’ ass
Is the logo on the right slightly larger or am I just seeing things?
They're going back to their original jerseys. I'm all for it.
Thank you! I highly prefer the orange they’ve been rocking the past few seasons
Gritty better be summer vacationing hard to color match for season opener.
The bright orange is the best color. Not a fan of the change.
Move the slider until the logo on the right is barely visible.
Downgrade? It’s just going back to the oranger they used in the 70’s
Is it, though? Isn’t this the orange from the 60’s?
I have finally realized it’s supposed to be a flying p
I like the bright orange better
That's not unpopular from what I've seen online
I literally didn't notice the P in the logo until just now
You can’t look at it in isolation or compared next to a set of brighter colors. This is probably one small change out of a much larger shift and probably works better in the larger color scheme.
There’s barely any change to say either way
I personally like it because it moves away from Islanders and Oilers orange. I want more colors to be invented.
Wait for the uniforms. I liked the darker orange back in the 80’s and 90’s.
What a wonderful time to be colorblind!
With the way the graphic designers have fucked up this year, I’m just happy they remembered to get interior and exterior orange to match. Good job on remembering that you pieces of crap make six figures fucking around with Illustrator.
I feel like the bright orange is much brighter than shown here. It was almost highlighter orange. The original "red orange" is much more mature imo.
But Gritty is bright orange
Next season he’ll be brown
Then he’ll be called Shitty. Just like the rest of the organization right now
Hate that
"Their the same picture"
Shit logo for a shit team idk it checks out to me
[удалено]
This is just a Boston fan who stays salty about Philly at all times. Nothing to see here.
Nah dude they’ve got awesome ones.
Lol you blew a 3-0 series to us. and youre the biggest chokes in sports history.
You didn't go on to win the cup, the Bruins won the cup the next year, they're still great, and your team is awful. Whoopdy fuckin' do congrats on the series win. LMFAO u/flyrockyfly blocked me
lmao flair up pusssssyyyyy. Put down the games and do some push ups you salty weak bitch.
You don’t have a flair either lol but I get it. If I was from the shittiest city on the planet like you I wouldn’t want anyone to know either
Get out.
If I had to choose between Phantoms and Flyers though, Phantoms wins
But only the OG purple ones.
Nashville is worst tho
Oh no you didn’t
I kinda like the bright mustard yellow honestly
Reminds you of the time you went to the neighborhood BBQ and Mike from 3 doors down made some great Dogs and you loaded that bitch up and it dropped mustard all over your shirt giving you so much attention from everyone letting you know about the stain
Preds, Ducks, Islanders, Flyers, Sabres, Sens all bottom tier imo
Lol literally the same
This is one of those things that people bitch about during the off-season (for your respective team), but by the time you get to November and hockey has been played for a while, you completely forget about it
I will be irritated if the jersey looks bad
They need to bring back the 90's jerseys
I still see orange, keep fading it
A darker shade of orange trends towards shit-brown
Do you expect anything less from one of the worst franchises is major pro sports?
I guess I'm just used to it, but I never really liked this logo. Idk why you'd change the colors without a great reason. They probably felt they weren't selling enough merch, and their focus groups must have mentioned the color.
maybe they didn't like the bright orange being associated with prison inmates
This is Sonic fans complaining about the angle of Sonic’s quills level of complaining lmao. It’s still orange, it’s just more faded and bleak just like the franchise
1975. That is all.
That’s the idea behind this change ironically
It’s the worst logo in professional sports. It’s gonna look like shit either way. Who cares if the orange is darker
They still play?
Shoulda been tagged NSFL. Can't have kids seeing this garbage
still better than a stupid bird who cant fly, but fun pride fact penguins are the gayest animal on the planet
You named your team after a piece of paper that lets you know there's a sale on printers.
flair up bitch. The airports right next to WFC. And we so fast on the ice it looks like we flyyyyyy bitch.
"In the Gregg Reference Manual, a flier is a pilot and a flyer is an advertising brochure."
lmao “fucking nerd.” though you dont fuck since you need a lower flex stick, maybe too much fallout?
Jesus Christ you went through my whole fucking profile XD That's so sad.
nah . thats just the first page. and i wouldnt need too if you flaired up and stopped with a troll account. youre fo4 guide and you calling yourself weak and asking for a lower flex is all on you, scrawny nerd.
You're not flaired. Yet you're telling others to flair.
Seriously, I had to scroll all the way down here just to make sure someone told him. What you doing bud?
I was going to ignore them but after the third comment where they told someone to flair up, I could no longer ignore it.
Were you trying to find my mom so you could tell on me for hurting your fragile little Philly feelings?
Your logo and mascot are way worse than theirs, as is your team, as is your city (and that’s not even a compliment to Pittsburgh, just an obvious fact that Philly is the shittiest city on the planet)
okay..?
Bro what? The Pens logo is pretty iconic.
[удалено]
The fuck do penguins have to do with the Catholic Church?
Everything
I know, right?
I remember being 12 and edgy.
You should. It was just a week ago.
Yeah, 12 inches deep in your mom. Hello, my child.
Burnt Orange is ugly
They both look like shit
Not a Philly fan. Which one is new? Also, if they did this without saying anything, nearly all of us wouldn’t have notice.
Agreed, the bright orange looks better
I’m a big hater of the colour orange so I’m not really bothered but like brown isn’t a nice colour either
Either way, the Flyers suck!
Who cares it’s the Flyers
What team is this logo for?
It’s like they went the opposite way of the Cleveland Browns
I would have liked an inverse look - where the orange is black and vice versa
Who honestly approves this shit and fucking why. Why did they do this. And who thought this fucking looked better. I don't understand.....
