“At the Grand” in a few years, but the “X” forever.
I find it kinda odd that Alcohol and Tobacco companies cannot advertise but Casinos can. I mean it’s not the same but kinda the same, right?
GCA. Could spin it as “the gaka”. Imagine we win a game and they announcer says “the gaka” is going crazy
I am suprised xcel energy would want their name on the center ice still after being kicked off name wise.
It’s good to imprint the merits of gambling into our children early.
25 years and nothing to show for it. Bring back the North Stars
They can all it the Bumfuck Shitweasel Arena for all I care. Seems silly to piss and moan about something we as fans have literally no control over. It’s done, move on. Only thing I’m concerned about is the Wild winning games.
Side note: the anniversary logo looks good.
Would have liked some wild flair on the numbers might have been a nice touch.
Oooh I really don’t like that it’s not centered
At first glance I thought it was a giant swastika lol
Do we start calling it The Ex now?
At least it’s not crypto.com arena /cope
I don’t even have ocd and I’m not liking it being off center
Wait. I had no idea. It’s no longer the Xcel Energy Center?!
Ooh, I like the anniversary logo seeing it on-ice. Still always gonna be the X in my head, but maybe the Grand Casino branding will grow on me.
“It’s a Grand Casino maximum credit bet POWER PLAY!!!”

The G Spot.
Long live the G-Spot
I don’t like it
Oof.
The actual center logo looks awesome though
Screw it, I’m going back to calling it the Civic Center
We took the land from the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe. They took the naming rights of an arena. We’re evened up now.
Long live the, uh, G-Spot, I guess.
I’m still calling it the Xcel Center
Hmm The G-Spot… or The Ex? What a choice.
Boo
Grand Casino has their name center ice 3 times, surprised they didn’t paint the roof to look like their logo too. ick
I’m sure there are worse choices for a stadium sponsor/name, but I can’t think of one.
What’s with the weird off-set divided by the red line? Keep it continuous on either side. So what that we would be reading sideways on the TV broadcast. It is still legible. Now it looks dumb.
Should’ve made the Wild logo the center and the 25 at the bottom. Typical Minnesota woke dumb dumbs
I will forever call it The X. OR maybe something more relevant like The Ex-X.
