Thanks everyone for your feedback so far! We'll bridge the gap (and I do mean gap) to the NDDL East by taking a look at the NDL North and South teams whose affiliates we haven't seen yet:



Charlotte Records
Affiliated with: Atlanta Records

You may recall that when I first posted the Atlanta Records logo, I mentioned that QCS had made a very similar logo for a hypothetical Charlotte team. I thought that was a really funny coincidence, and I thought it would be cool to use the name for a minor league team. Fortunately, he agreed, and gave me the go-ahead to bring his logo slightly more in line with Atlanta’s and use it for this project.

Laval Rapides
Affiliated with: Montréal Magma

Rapides was a name that was considered for the Laval Rocket, and I thought a triple blue would fit nicely with the Magma’s triple red. That’s really the basis for the logo, which I think feels very Québécois and doesn’t look like toothpaste at all, thank you very much.

London Hogs
Affiliated with: Toronto Hogs

Toronto’s farm team ended up in London, sort of as an attempt to extend their fanbase further into Southern Ontario. I used the Hogs name, but I did make a new logo, sort of inspired by the Binghamton Devils. I honestly think I like this logo better than Toronto’s, but I also don’t think I’d want to use this logo for Toronto.

Raleigh Lab Rats
Affiliated with: Orlando Orbits

A lot of research gets done around Raleigh, so much so that the area around it is called the Research Triangle. Hence, Lab Rats. I figured I had to include red, because it wouldn’t really feel like a Raleigh team otherwise (see: Hurricanes, Wolfpack), and I paired that with the Orbits’ blue, along with a lighter blue for the goggles. The color scheme also plays nicely off the area’s big three colleges.

Only one more group and then we can get rolling again. Let me know what you think!

Not bad at all! The Records and Hogs both look like backup logos for their parent clubs respectivly! Laval doesn't look one bit bad either, very oceanic feel. The Lab Rats look very good, fan of the colors and logo, other than Phoenix, this might be a favorite team in the NDDL. 

Man that Charlotte logo looks familiar... must be a coincidence. I've got my team for now!

Nice job on the minor league team logos.  I really like the Fresno Grapes, Iowa Lights, Laval Rapids, and Raleigh Lab Rats. 

I agree with Steelman, the London logo is an improvement on the Toronto logo.  Interested to see if maybe this leads to alterations in the Toronto logo?  

Not bad set to wrap it up! All four just give me a classic vibe! Well done IDM!
