Updated Blackhawks persona. EDIT: Changed the tomahawks to the white ones. Chicago Blackhawks logo and wordmark © their respective owners

One of the all-time classic logos in sports history makes its debut. The oldest operating team in the NHL, the Montreal Canadiens, 100 years old. EDIT: Replaced the footer image for a little more coordination. Montreal Canadiens logo and wordmark © the Molson family (Canadiens owners)

I think this is it. The final team. Last, but not least, the Minnesota Wild. I'm glad Minnesota has a hockey team again after the North Stars moved to Dallas. And a very creative logo too. Minnesota Wild logo and wordmark © their respective owners.

The Caps alternate logo is one of my all time favourite designs. It is amazingly simple, yet bursting with symbolism and subtlety. It needed to be front and center on a Caps persona. Washington Capitals logo and wordmark © Ted Leonsis (Caps owner)

For those who prefer the Orca logo, I made an alternate for the Canucks persona with it front and center. Vancouver Canucks logo and wordmark © their respective owners

New secondary version of the Toronto Maple Leafs persona, this time with the full leaf shoulder patch in lieu of the gem. Toronto Maple Leafs logo and workmark © MLSE Ltd.

I got mixed feelings about the Avs, particularly since they used to be a Canadian club. Still, it's not like Denver isn't a hockey town. They really got to get rid of Bigfoot though, that makes no sense. Colorado Avalanche logo and wordmark © Stan Kroenke (Avs owner)

And the final Canadian team is done. The Calgary Flames. This logo works well with the Persona system. EDIT: Shifted the logo to center it. Calgary Flames logo and wordmark © Flames board of governors

The defending Stanley Cup champs get their turn. I've got a personal connection to the Burgh, so they're another team I root for in the playoffs. Plus I like Crosby. ;) Pittsburgh Penguins logo and wordmark © Lemieux and Burkle (Pens owners)

Quite possibly one of the worst logos in the history of hockey. Oh well, it's the best one can work with. Carolina Hurricanes logo and wordmark © their respective owners

New version of the Toronto Maple Leafs persona, this time with the 3rd jersey logo. Toronto Maple Leafs logo and workmark © MLSE Ltd.

I LOVE the old-school Sabres logo. I gotta admit, the Buffaslug had kinda grown on me too. But as far as I know, it'll be gone in '11. Buffalo Sabres logo and wordmark © B. Thomas Golisano (Sabres owner)

Toronto Maple Leafs persona, with the primary logo. Toronto Maple Leafs logo and wordmark © MLSE Inc.

Another Original Six team with some fantastic logos! I only wish I could find a hi-res image of the Winter Classic logo. I'll keep looking. Enjoy! Boston Bruins logo and wordmark © Jeremy Jacobs (Bruins owner)

My DFB persona. All logos belong to the Deutscher Fussball-Bund.

Oilers persona time! Here's hoping they bounce back in '11. EDIT: Resized the logo to match the others of this series. Edmonton Oilers logos and wordmark © Rexall Sports

The Vancouver Canucks make their appearance. Go Luongo! ;) EDIT: Switch the rink-in-stick with the orca in the footer. Shifted the orca down slightly Vancouver Canucks logo and wordmark © Canucks Sports and Entertainment

They moved these guys out of Winnipeg to go to the middle of the desert where nobody cares about hockey? No wonder they went bankrupt. Well, financial troubles aside, they're a decent team. Phoenix Coyotes logo and wordmark © NHL (Coyotes owners)

Ey, time for the boys from Long Island to make a persona! :D Fear not, guys, no fishsticks in sight. New York Islanders © Charles Wang (Isles owner)

My persona for recent World Cup champions Spain. Congratulations to La Furia Roja on your victory in South Africa! Spanish Football logo belongs to the Spanish National Team. Crown of Spain created by Guilherme Paula (Wikipedia). Pillars of Hercules created by Ipankonin (Wikipedia). Cross of Burgundy created by Rastrojo (Wikipedia).

Ah, the Flyers. The Broad Street Bullies and arch-nemeses of the Penguins. They really need to update their logo, it's cool but it's ALL they have. Philadelphia Flyers logo and wordmark © Comcast Spectator

New shoulder patch persona! Toronto Maple Leafs © MLSE

Oh the Cats... such great logos, such a horrible team. :( Florida Panthers logo and wordmark © their respective owners

Sorry, no Donovan around to narrate this one. :D It's the Thrashers! Atlanta Thrashers logo and wordmark © their respective owners

Nashville seems like an unlike place for a hockey team. But they've got some sweet logos (if rather ugly colours). Nashville Predators logo and wordmark © their respective owners
