Oh good, I'm not the only one who liked the Sabres black beauties...

I'm not going to list my favorites but I have been wondering why the Penguins switched from there "futuristic" Penguin emblem to the cartoonish logo.

Because the cartoonish logo is classic for them.

When they won the cup:

I'm not sure there's much that's classic about the Penguins look.

They changed their colors from blue-and-white to black-and-gold in the early 80s. The logo itself has gone through a few variations and it was a creation of the late 60s-early 70s which can hardly be called a classic period in logo design.

In my mind, the futuristic Penguins uniform was fantastic and they should have never abandoned it. While a number of professional sports franchises tried to modernize their logos, only the Penguins really came up with a design that worked on many levels: stylized, yet minimal. Dignified, but exciting.

I could live without some of the jersey experiments like the pseudo Rangers sash but the logo seems underrated to me. It also made sense as an attempt to revive an image of a city too often stereotyped for being stuck in the past and still struggling to escape it.

Pro football - Detroit Lions

College football - Auburn

Pro basketball - Lakers gold home unis

College basketball - Classic North Carolina home white (that new Nike jersey bites) - all bias on this pick

Baseball - Detroit Tigers home unis

Hockey - Detroit Red Wings

I'm surprised I picked so many Detroit teams. I've never been a fan of any of them.

By their second year in the league, the cartoonish Penguin guy was incorperated in their logo:

I agree with you about the Rangers Statue of Liberty Logos -- as much as it pains me being an Islander fan. I also thought their white Jerseys with that logo were sweet, much cooler than our "Pumpkin" third jerseys today.

Those were pretty sweet. I have one M's jersey, and it's Griffey's in that color.

I wish the Royals would go back to the Powder Blue. They look too much like the Mets or Dodgers these days. When you saw the Powder Blue in the diamond you knew KC was playing!

Then again back then we had a team too.
