Florida Panthers (NHL) to Unveil New Logos and Uniforms for 2016-2017

The Panthers will have a brand new look next season.

According to a source within the organization, the team is completely rebranding itself for the 2016-17 season.

The Panthers will have new jerseys replete with a new logo as well as a possible new color scheme.

I was told the team’s traditional red-gold-blue colors will be similar, but that’s pretty vague.

As far as the Florida look goes, the team hasn’t had much change since joining the league as an expansion team in 1993.

As it has been explained to me, expect a horizontal logo (like the Blackhawks, although perhaps in a circle crest) on a horizontal striped sweater (like the Canadiens). The alternate palm tree/hockey stick logo will likely be lost in the transition.
