Why no Atlanta Thrashers Logo in CAT

[frtylicks]

Does anybody know if they will add more vintage logos to NHL 17? I can't understand why the Atlanta Thrashers logo is not in the game, can anybody tweet EA to find out. Thanks

It might be a case by case basis type of thing for getting those old trademarks and stuff approved, just my guess.

I second this. There's not many of us Thrashers fans left, but if the Atlanta Flames jerseys are in the game, the dang Thrashers should be there too

The NHL owns most NHL logos. They do not own the Thrashers logo.

I'd imagine it's a licensing issue for them. The owners of the Thrashers probably still have the rights to the name and likeness.

It would be nice to see a more robust team creator. No offense to the NHL team, but a lot of their team logos are a bit cheesy looking. Everything has a very cartoony look from what I've seen.

The owners of the Atlanta Thrashers {Atlanta Hawks Group LLC formally the Atlanta Spirit Group LLC} went bankrupt and collapsed in 2015
