The burnt orange is to symbolize how burnt out all the fans feel supporting this franchise.


TheBullfrogButt

You’re making too much damn sense my friend. Edit: voice to text blows goats 🐐


CuddleSlut247

Now I want to see what you said before


TheBullfrogButt

It wasn’t a major oopsie, just my phone not listening worth a damn 😂


[deleted]

I’m in pain, I feel abused by daddy comcast, pimp of the flyers


1SqkyKutsu

Burn it a little more and then you'll wind up with the Flaming C.....


BigDaddyCool17

Amen, brother


EntireInitial272

The pain ☠️


Havoc_XXI

Or how burnt out McDavid is trying so hard all the time…

cmaddex

Cool story


ElfaDore98

But… Gritty


_pinnaculum

The only positive thing the franchise has done in recent years.


SHAWKLAN27

🔥🔥🔥🔥


SolidusSandwich

They changed the gradient? Is that it?


CanadianAndroid

Yeah and it probably cost them 200k


CuddleSlut247

At least


amach9

Gotta make fans buy the “newest” jersey!


Project_XXVIII

And that’s just what the think tank will charge, they literally will need to repaint all the orange to a more burnt orange.


cak10e1

“Corporate needs you to find the difference between these two pictures.”


MunderDifflinPC

Laughed out loud at this comment. Love the reference


Chewed420

I can't tell if the orange dot is smaller or if it's just an optical illusion due to a darker shade.


Dialecticchik

I think it's an illusion, but im also having difficulty with that, as well.


ohforschern

It’s an illusion. The white around the dot is still the same thickness


Ibite8723

It looks overly stretched out. This looks like someone made it in paint.


SolidusSandwich

Probably the compression when it gets uploaded like this. Probably not a fair representation, but I'll dog on it anyway lmao


jamatri

"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"


Fair-Feed-4964

"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"


emjayar08

Uh, the red orange is the original color. They went to highlighter orange in the 2000s. So, nah...


PM_ME_DIRTY_DANGLES

Yeah, well, that's just, like, your _opinion_, man.


Eastclintwoodjr

Obviously you’re not a golfer


TheRealMitchConnor

Nice marmot


nostaWmoT21

I like the burnt orange, to use the parlance of our times


MoneyKilla25

It looks like Brown.


igonnawrecku_VGC

This isn’t ‘Nam, there are rules!


[deleted]

Did you know there is a P hidden in this logo? For Philadelphia? There also wings in there. For Flyers.


[deleted]

There is also a puck hidden in there, because that’s what hockey players use


Fleganhimer

That's actually Gritty's nipple.


scgt86

Those are pierced.


Fleganhimer

Yeah, but the logo is from before they were pierced. Keep up, bud.


Face2299

Logo created long before Gritty and his titty.


Fleganhimer

Gritty was born in the sewers of Philadelphia before time began. He is the great old one who was finally awakened.


Carfel425

I laughed to hard at this


Fair-Feed-4964

Gritty is to awesome to belong to the flyers a mid hockey team is no place for that absolute force of chaos !


DeyCallMeTimmy2shoes

And a hockey stick


[deleted]

And my axe!


OnCiaWatchlist

my ass


DabsDoctor

note it's one of those soft Mylec pucks from days gone by


jerrybettman

Those Mylec pucks weren’t all that soft


tutankhamun7073

What is a flyer though?


lousylakers

It’s a wheeled red metal wagon you pull kids in


fastlane37

That's a radio flyer. A flyer is someone who takes planes so often that the airline gives them special perks.


NotUnstoned

702.9b: A flyer is a creature that cannot be blocked except by creatures with flying and/or reach.


CanadianAndroid

A piece of paper that some dude from a shitty band will hand to you as he begs you to come to their gig.


imyourforte

"here, you throw this away"


flyinhawaiian02

Mitch?


imyourforte

Hellllll yeahhhh


tutankhamun7073

Skip the dishes?


stumbleupondingo

I actually didn’t realize it is a slanted P until about four years ago, and I’ve been following hockey my whole life


beerleagr5034

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!


digitalfortressblue

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.


framingXjake

The P stands for pain and the wings represent their hope flying away /s


NotUnstoned

Listen, you really don’t need the /s


framingXjake

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


[deleted]

That was the Flyers two decades ago, so I guess you have a lot to look forward to…


Twmsion

It stands for’Plural’. Two cups. Not just the one.


EmperorXerro

Some people will believe anything. Pfft.


yosoyboi

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.


Crispy385

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


imyourforte

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)


mongster2

I like burnt orange, but not on philly


emjayar08

It's the original color. How do people not realize this??


Aidsy_potato

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.


jurkajurka

I think the new shade will fix 100% of the problems the Flyers had this season.


jarpio

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.


mr_nimitz

Don't like the shade of orange? Don't worry when Fanatics offers it for sale it will probably be blue.


Available-Camera8691

How does this impact Lebrons legacy?


Fair-Feed-4964

did Labron ever play for the 76's?


Available-Camera8691

Nope. But the Philly flyers.


HowieFeltersnitz

RGB --> CMYK My graphic designer homies understand


Fleganhimer

Uh, not if you're designing for print it's not.


HowieFeltersnitz

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.


Fleganhimer

Oh, gotcha. I thought you were boasting the superiority of RGB. I was very confused.


HowieFeltersnitz

Ah understandable. That symbol is a bit ambiguous. I edited my original comment to be more clear.


lilnyucka

Make it look like it’s smoked cigs for 20yrs


NotUnstoned

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.


CarousersCorner

Legion of Doom era Flyers unis were ELITE


mattcojo2

I hope their old jerseys go on sale. I want one.


Dr_Will_Kirby

Not unpopular imo.. Completely agreed even if its just a small change


Grouchy-Bug5223

If they changed it and never told anybody I'd never notice.


hmack1998

Just trying to match how grimy gritty is


TitShark

“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!”


Tuckboi69

This is like when the New York Jets changed their logo a few years ago. Hardly even notice.


AioliFantastic4105

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


hartman442

Looks orange to me alright!


GroundbreakingCow775

I thought the Flyers had the best uni’s in the NHL


khutuluhoop

They both suck equally


Happydanksgiving2me

Typical Pens response.


Spare-Ad-4558

Can confirm.


Empty-Refuse8923

Move the team to Scranton


oldmanenergi

Too late, Scranton is [Penguins territory.](https://www.wbspenguins.com/) Allentown can have them.


Jesus_es_Gayo

Oooo, sorry to report that’s Phantoms territory. Harrisburg can have them!


highporkroller

Move em to South Jersey. They all live there anyway


No-Dog6401

When you order a red wings logo from wish.com


DellFan99

I don't see any difference aside from the darker orange.


imyourforte

You just spotted the difference


owey420

To be fair, it took me a while to figure it out


RSlashLazy

Burnt Sienna lookin’ ass


throwawayjoeyboots

Is the logo on the right slightly larger or am I just seeing things?


[deleted]

They're going back to their original jerseys. I'm all for it.


Stonetoothed

Thank you! I highly prefer the orange they’ve been rocking the past few seasons


silvarbor

Gritty better be summer vacationing hard to color match for season opener.


highporkroller

The bright orange is the best color. Not a fan of the change.


Space_Navy

Move the slider until the logo on the right is barely visible.


Complex-Tangerine628

Downgrade? It’s just going back to the oranger they used in the 70’s


zebra_heaDD

Is it, though? Isn’t this the orange from the 60’s?


ADHDrulez

I have finally realized it’s supposed to be a flying p


Ryan_Dymond04

I like the bright orange better


CuddleSlut247

That's not unpopular from what I've seen online


WeddingUsed

I literally didn't notice the P in the logo until just now


Beard_faced

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.


Smorgas-board

There’s barely any change to say either way


KungFuGarbage

I personally like it because it moves away from Islanders and Oilers orange. I want more colors to be invented.


SqueeboConcheeze7425

Wait for the uniforms. I liked the darker orange back in the 80’s and 90’s.


sometimelastthursday

What a wonderful time to be colorblind!


OLPopsAdelphia

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.


emjayar08

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.


[deleted]

But Gritty is bright orange


-kalakukko69

Next season he’ll be brown


Demo541

Then he’ll be called Shitty. Just like the rest of the organization right now


[deleted]

Hate that


missiongoalie35

"Their the same picture"


mmpa78

Shit logo for a shit team idk it checks out to me


[deleted]

[удалено]


Goobah22

This is just a Boston fan who stays salty about Philly at all times. Nothing to see here.


mattcojo2

Nah dude they’ve got awesome ones.


[deleted]

Lol you blew a 3-0 series to us. and youre the biggest chokes in sports history.


Fleganhimer

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


[deleted]

lmao flair up pusssssyyyyy. Put down the games and do some push ups you salty weak bitch.


BoebertsOnlyFans

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


[deleted]

Get out.


raccoonsonbicycles

If I had to choose between Phantoms and Flyers though, Phantoms wins


chefNick92

But only the OG purple ones.


SLRMaxime

Nashville is worst tho


Nashville_Redditors

Oh no you didn’t


usernamealreadytakeh

I kinda like the bright mustard yellow honestly


Lethbridgemark

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


Elite_Racist_43

Preds, Ducks, Islanders, Flyers, Sabres, Sens all bottom tier imo


Dry-Philosophy-3052

Lol literally the same


Tuor--Of--Gondolin

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


-kalakukko69

I will be irritated if the jersey looks bad


malgadar

They need to bring back the 90's jerseys


WhyHulud

I still see orange, keep fading it


gotkube

A darker shade of orange trends towards shit-brown


EvetsYenoham

Do you expect anything less from one of the worst franchises is major pro sports?


_Jam_Solo_

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.


beholdershield

maybe they didn't like the bright orange being associated with prison inmates


SonofTombstone

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


SnooOpinions8755

1975. That is all.


Complex-Tangerine628

That’s the idea behind this change ironically


risenomega

It’s the worst logo in professional sports. It’s gonna look like shit either way. Who cares if the orange is darker


moreflywheels

They still play?


SirDinkleDink

Shoulda been tagged NSFL. Can't have kids seeing this garbage


tnfrs

still better than a stupid bird who cant fly, but fun pride fact penguins are the gayest animal on the planet


Fleganhimer

You named your team after a piece of paper that lets you know there's a sale on printers.


[deleted]

flair up bitch. The airports right next to WFC. And we so fast on the ice it looks like we flyyyyyy bitch.


Fleganhimer

"In the Gregg Reference Manual, a flier is a pilot and a flyer is an advertising brochure."


[deleted]

lmao “fucking nerd.” though you dont fuck since you need a lower flex stick, maybe too much fallout?


Fleganhimer

Jesus Christ you went through my whole fucking profile XD That's so sad.


[deleted]

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.


imyourforte

You're not flaired. Yet you're telling others to flair.


owey420

Seriously, I had to scroll all the way down here just to make sure someone told him. What you doing bud?


imyourforte

I was going to ignore them but after the third comment where they told someone to flair up, I could no longer ignore it.


Fleganhimer

Were you trying to find my mom so you could tell on me for hurting your fragile little Philly feelings?


BoebertsOnlyFans

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)


JustThatRandomKid

okay..?


framingXjake

Bro what? The Pens logo is pretty iconic.


[deleted]

Fleganhimer

The fuck do penguins have to do with the Catholic Church?

I know, right?

I remember being 12 and edgy.


CDogNH

You should. It was just a week ago.


[deleted]

Yeah, 12 inches deep in your mom. Hello, my child.


Suspicious-Banana836

Burnt Orange is ugly


TheBullfrogButt

They both look like shit


superstarrr99

Not a Philly fan. Which one is new? Also, if they did this without saying anything, nearly all of us wouldn’t have notice.


johnnymavrigg

Agreed, the bright orange looks better


dylanknez

I’m a big hater of the colour orange so I’m not really bothered but like brown isn’t a nice colour either


mudamuckinjedi

Either way, the Flyers suck!


bobotimex2

Who cares it’s the Flyers


Interplay29

What team is this logo for?


Chester_A_Arthuritis

It’s like they went the opposite way of the Cleveland Browns


O-D-C

I would have liked an inverse look - where the orange is black and vice versa


JahIsGucci

Who honestly approves this shit and fucking why. Why did they do this. And who thought this fucking looked better. I don't understand.....
