Americans Primary Logo
The Brooklyn Americans are an iconic team in the history of the National Hockey League (NHL). They were one of the first six teams to join what is now known as one of the most popular sports leagues in North America. The primary logo for this historic franchise has gone through several iterations, each representing different eras and styles throughout its existence.
When they joined NHL in 1925, their original logo was a shield with white lettering that read “Brooklyn Americans” on top and “NHL” below it. This classic design featured two hockey sticks crossed behind a puck which symbolized strength and unity among players while also giving fans something to rally around when cheering on their favorite team. In 1946, however, they decided to update their look by introducing a more modern version featuring black lettering with red trimming alongside an American flag-inspired image of three stars above it all – this iteration remained until 1972 when it was changed yet again due to league rebranding efforts at that time.
In 1972, Brooklyn Americans unveiled another new primary logo which consisted simply of two stripes going across horizontally from left to right; these stripes were colored blue & orange respectively while still maintaining some elements from previous designs such as incorporating both hockey sticks & pucks into them – overall providing fans with something familiar but also fresh enough so that everyone could recognize who they were rooting for! The current version features four stars along those same horizontal lines but instead being placed within circles; additionally, there's no longer any text included either making way for just symbols associated directly related back towards ice hockey itself - ultimately creating an instantly recognizable mark amongst both casual viewers or hardcore followers alike!
