After the Detroit Red Wings' latest announcement, all Original Six NHL teams have officially unveiled their centennial logos.
In a storied league like the NHL, traditions and past greatness are extremely valued by both members and fans. All organizations innovate when it comes to celebrating important milestones and anniversaries.
This year, the New York Rangers, Chicago Blackhawks, and Detroit Red Wings announced plans to commemorate 100 years of franchise history.
The Wings recently confirmed their special logo in an announcement, with comments from the team's President Ryan Gustafson:
"The vision for Centennial was to create opportunities for fans to relive their favorite moments and celebrate the people that make Red Wings hockey so special. In addition to these events, we are excited to host dozens of alumni at Little Caesars Arena for dedicated games in celebration of the eras that they played in. Today's announcement highlights several core activations for fans to put on their calendars, while more details and further programming will be shared in the coming months."
Of course, they follow in the footsteps of the Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, and Boston Bruins, who unveiled their own centennial logos and uniforms in recent years.
All six Original Six teams have now presented centennial visuals that do justice to their rich histories, and truthfully, they all nailed it.
It's also worth noting that the Columbus Blue Jackets and Minnesota Wild will celebrate their 25th anniversary next season.
The Blue Jackets already released special designs to commemorate the anniversary:
As for the Wild, an official announcement should come soon, possibly even during the first round of the NHL Draft, set to go down tonight.
Of course, all fans agree that the best way teams can honor their history is by making the team better before the start of the next season.
