There isn't really any rhyme or reason for the design but as it came together it definitely started looking more and more Senator-esque. The one element I did really want to incorporate into the design is arrow feather/branch looking things, seeing as they've been a part of the Sens logo for a very long time.
The logo is taken from the Heritage jerseys that the Sens brought into existence a couple of seasons ago. In the end, it all comes together to give the senators another unique jersey design that compliments the past, present and future of the franchise.
