PASabreFan 4,210 Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 All right. All right. I see the right to left action with the tail at about five o'clock. Sort of a The More You Know star effect. All in all this logo holds up quite well after 24 years. Considering that the slug never held up for even a short time.

SwampD 2,944 Posted August 23, 2020 Report Share Posted August 23, 2020 Not sure about a tail at five o’clock, but I love that logo. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I could never unsee that anytime I wore the jersey and looked down at the logo. It’s even better knowing that we added Satan not too long into the lifespan of that jersey. How many beers does it take to 1st get that effect? When 1st saw it in a small inkjet printed sketch right before the new duds were revealed, thought that the points to the left and right, along with the beard were supposed to be stylized legs and the buffalo was sloshed. Explained the bloodshot eye at least. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m not good at messing around with the images, especially on my phone, but turn this upside-down if you can. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can't get to the devil you're seeing there, but never knew the bloodshot eye was Deadpool's mask upside down until now. Thanks for that. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wyldnwoody44 1,708 Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 If you turn it sideways, It looks like an evil raven Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zamboni 1,444 Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) Wow. I don’t see a devil or Deadpool or a raven no matter what direction I turn the damn image ? I see the ying/yang symbol in the eye. That’s kinda cool. Edited August 24, 2020 by Zamboni 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Eleven 3,625 Posted August 24, 2020 Report Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) It's always looked like a mean version of the Elmer's glue logo to me. Not a dragon. Not a satanic thing. Edited August 24, 2020 by Eleven 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But no nose ring. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

steveoath 480 Posted December 18, 2020 Report Share Posted December 18, 2020 So I wore my new Royal Blue Eichel Jersey to school today (last day - non uniform). One of our youngest learners - a 5 year old - stopped to ask "Why is there scissors on that?". Slightly ruined my holiday spirit! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Those weren't scissors, those were the blades that destroyed the Soviet Wings and made Buffalo the favorite Scandanavian team for 2 generations. That was essentially the same uni Dom wore when he led the league in save %age for 6 years. And those were the blades that the best hockey player in the world wore when his parents were kids. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
