[the destroyer of worlds]

 

Boston Fleet

Minnesota Frost

Victoire de Montreal

New York Sirens

Ottawa Charge

Toronto Sceptres

 

 

 

• The Fleet represents Boston's maritime tradition, with a logo featuring a forward-leaning “B” in the shape of an anchor.

 

• The Minnesota Frost, the PWHL said, “embodies the State of Hockey’s deep-rooted love for the ice,” with the “F” logo featuring sharp icicle-like points.

 

• The Victoire name pays tribute to the team’s French-Canadian home, with the logo featuring a blue “M” for Montreal and a fleur-de-lis, a national symbol of Quebec.

 

• The Sirens are an ode to the New York's vibrant sights and sounds, and alluding to the goal horn, while the logo features the angular design of the letters “NY” to portray the Big Apple’s skyline.

 

• The Ottawa Charge reflects the Canadian capital’s motto, “Advance — Ottawa — En Avant,” with a logo featuring a large unfinished letter “O,” that also resembles the letter “C.”

 

• The Sceptres, the PWHL said, “embody Toronto’s regal history and commanding presence,” and reflect the Ontario capital also being known as the Queen City. The logo features a large sceptre with the letters “T” and “S” incorporated into the handle.

PWHL teams announce names, logos ahead of 2024-25 season

Overall, I don't mind them.  They could have been worse.

 

I like Montreal's the best.  I think Minnesota and Toronto's are the weakest designs.  It's interesting that there are no animals, which are common in pro sports.

 

[Herberts Vasiljevs]

Boston Fleet is pretty badass.

I agree. I think it's the best of the bunch.

[the destroyer of worlds]

Toronto's is kinda weak

[Psycho_Path]

Ya. Spectres would have been a better name IMO. I do like the Sirens though, for its other meaning

I'm torn.  I like how it resembles the old Whalers logo, but anchors aren't known for being all that fast.

[Ghostsof1915]

Boston and Montreal I like.

Minnesota, a wee generic but ok.

New York and Ottawa. Meh.

Toronto. Ugh.

Toronto Torch would be better. 

 

[Snoop Hogg]

The Toronto team should have been called the LPGA to keep with the Toronto Maple Leafs tradition of golfing in the spring.

I like Toronto's and Boston's logos. Montreal's logo is all right. The rest are bad.

[DeltaSwede]

Boston - an ode to the Hartford Whalers, neat, feels a little ECHL

Minnesota - trying to capitalize on Disneys Frozen or something? Worst of the bunch

Montreal - This might end up being the best one overall

New York - I get some 90s vibes here, I would definitely wear a snapback with that logo, cool

Ottawa - Calgary Flames only even lamer

Toronto - Meh

 

Will be interesting to see the jerseys. Kinda boring how they've been forced to follow some set of rules in terms of the name and design. It would have been more interesting to let all the teams go their own ways on design and identity.

Puck gets in for icing.

"Let it go.....Let IT GOOOOOOO!" 

[Canuck You]

They kinda look like NBAish logos...

[DrJockitch]

The NY logo is nausea inducing.

Ottawa and Minnesota could have been drawn by grade schoolers. 
Boston to any medical professional is an enema. Barbs are the last thing you want on an enema. 
Toronto, I think there is only one way to describe it; meh. tried for classy got meh. 
Montreal I think is okay I guess. 
 

[Goalie29]

The finalists for each team's name are out there as well...

 

 

Toronto: Torch, Sentinels, Sceptres*, Tempests
Ottawa: Advance, Alert, Charge*, Guard
Montreal: Lumieres, Metro, Echo, Victoire*
Boston: Blitz, Emeralds, Fleet*, Wicked
Minnesota: Superior, Frost*, Monarchs, Marmots
New York: Sirens*, Sound, Rush, Odyssey

Pretty basic inoffensive, but boring logos. When can we get a Vancouver team? I'd love to follow a Vancouver team.

If we do, I hope they’re called Voodoo

[N4ZZY]

Yeah, wondering when the PWHL will expand west? Vancouver needs a team here. Just copy the NHL, and put a team in all of their cities. lol
