Canadiens unveil new center-ice logo

MONTREAL – Opponents at the Bell Centre will be seeing red from the moment the puck drops this season.

The Canadiens unveiled a new full-color, 3D-styled center-ice logo on Wednesday, featuring references to the team’s history and market.

The design sees the entire surface area of the central face-off circle filled in with red, replacing the single oversized Canadiens logo that had been in place since 2018.

Here’s a look at the other elements featured:

1909

The year the team was founded, referencing over 100 years of history while still keeping things new.

Canadiens de Montréal

The team’s official name in French, underscoring its unique NHL roots, and the official language of Quebec.

Embossed circle

Inspired by the overhead view of the Stanley Cup, 24 grooves along the edge reference the team’s record 24 championships.

Dominant red color

The team’s home jersey color, alluding to the best home ice advantage in the NHL.

Fans will be able to see the new center-ice logo in person for the first time on Sept. 13-14 during the Prospect Showdown presented by IGA, in collaboration with Voisin. Tickets for the games start at just $10 and are available to purchase by clicking here.
