Founded in 1988, the Princeton-based ECHL is well-known as a tier below the American Hockey League. The organization used to be referred to as the East Coast Hockey League, which is reflected in one of its older logos.
The original ECHL logo featured the lettering “ECHL” in a rectangular shape with golden “wall” to the right. The emblem adopted in 1995 looked very much like the current one, except that it comprised the old name of the league and the stars had yellow outlines. The text was removed in 2004.
1988 — 1995
1995 — 2003
2003 — 2017
2017 — 2018
2018 — Today
Eventually, in 2016, the stars lost their yellow outlines, so the logo started to look the way it does now.
