I like the brighter red in the old one but have to go with new.
🙄
New. Without a single doubt.
Both look like toilet seats.
I love the Habs, but when I try to be objective, and this might be my stomach flu talking, both are shitty logos. Old shitty vs modernised shitty. Ok I’ll take the one that doesn’t look like it was drawn by a child.

New!
Imagine the riots if they tried to introduce a new logo?!
The funniest thing to me about some of these logos from a century ago, is that at some point in I dunno, 2005, some guy building a web database of sports logos would have gone looking for evidence of what the Rochester Blue Stockings wore, find that there’s absolutely no record of the specs/dimensions, or any official logo for print use at all, so they’d dig up an ancient black and white photo of Jorts McCaffrey and Flip Ticker posing in their uniforms, and trace what they could make out from this photo where they’re not even facing the camera straight. And then 10 years later someone will look at the logo this guy traced and think “this logo sucks! Did they even know what a stocking looked like?”, when it’s just a drawing somebody made on his iMac.
This Habs logo is a pretty good example of this, though the most glaring one has to be the Hamilton Tigers.
I like the padded toilet seat vs. the hard plastic…
New 🆕

They both kinda suck
The new one because it’s modern and also classic at the same time
Probably the only example of an NHL logo where the new one is better than the original one.
The ‘H’ stands for Horseshoes, right?
I am still surprised that the H stands for “Hockey” and not “Habitants”.
