1965 Logo and Uniform Updates

MONTREAL ROUGE

It was announced last offseason with the new ownership led by Alvon Martineau, the team would be refreshing the brand over the next few seasons. They ended up coming to a final decision on the brand earlier than expected and were ready to make the change this season.

For many years, the team had simply had a script logo for the team, so they wanted to create a proper logo to represent the team. They ended up with a simple fleur de lis with an “M” on top. A much more solid logo to really make the Rouge a much stronger brand. 

They also decided to make some more heavy changes to the uniforms than some were not expecting. The new-look features the new logo on the classic red helmet. The home jersey is pretty much the same except for two thin white stripes, marking the first time the team has had striping on their red jersey. The red socks match the striping, while the silver pants remain, but with a new red and white stripe. The Roads use the same helmet, pants and socks, but the new jersey sees a vest style with red sleeves and a white jersey. 

PROVIDENCE GOLD STARS

Following their 50th anniversary season that had the team put their 50-star logo on the helmet, the Gold Stars decided to maintain the additional star on each side of the helmet, except using the star with a “P” from their primary logo.
