Wouldn't they? I have never had the pleasure of visiting it but I have seen photos of old moth-balled jerseys of teams from the 20s and 30s.<br /><br />That poorly rendered tiger's head was what I was always lead to believe was Hamilton's original logo. How is it that the NHL does not have better records of this?<br /><br />There has to be some better quality photos somewhere.azachttp://www.tshirtmonster.ca/Affiliate.aspx?Land=Gallery&ID=cazacreations&Affiliate=44noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35648373.post-38672928727833343022009-05-30T09:36:43.023-05:002009-05-30T09:36:43.023-05:00Funny but I had an NHL Heritage Hamilton Tigers re...Funny but I had an NHL Heritage Hamilton Tigers replica sweater about ten years ago (kicking myself now for selling it on eBay) and whoever made the sweater used (probably created) the poor hand drawn version of the Growling Tiger head logo which is probably how that image ended up all over cyberspace. The sweater was also more of an orange color than yellow. Typical that the NHL would get that wrong.<br /><br /> I'm a South Florida (Panthers) hockey fan wishing you guys the best of luck in landing the Coyotes and bringing the Tigers back into the NHL. Despite living in the US sunbelt I know Canada deserves a couple more teams in Hamilton and Winnipeg (if the rink there can be expanded). If Bettman gets his way and keeps the team in Phoenix then the NHL should just get it over with and give Balsillie an expansion team for 2010 then add a 32nd team a few years later. This would keep Balsillie from poaching existing teams and pretty much exhaust all viable markets so the teams south of the border would have to make it work where they are already at. Everyone would be happy.todd littlenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35648373.post-22539827564848599402007-06-13T07:54:00.000-05:002007-06-13T07:54:00.000-05:00Great comment, though I think Bob Young actually s...Great comment, though I think Bob Young actually said that the word 'tiger' can not be trademarked. I'm sure we would see Balsillie and Young work together, especially because their seasons do not overlap much.JAChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03811320247352213502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35648373.post-41937663164744580022007-06-13T00:25:00.000-05:002007-06-13T00:25:00.000-05:00I have to agree with you, I would prefer the H log...I have to agree with you, I would prefer the H logo were they to be called the Tigers. But I'm not so sure that the name Tigers will be used because of the Ti-Cats and the name Tigers no longer has the significance that it did back in the 1920s. As for the team colours, I'm almost certain that it's yellow and not orange, and I believe that I've come across reference to this being the case.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
