Restrictions
Do not stretch, skew, or distort the circular "Bolt" logo. All scaling must be proportional.
The logo must only appear in the official team palette. Do not "colorized" the logo to match third-party marketing materials.
Maintain a minimum "safe zone" around the logo equal to the width of the lightning bolt's tail to ensure visual clarity.
Do not remove the "Tampa Bay" wordmark from the circular border or use the lightning bolt as a standalone icon unless utilizing an officially approved secondary mark.
Avoid using drop shadows, gradients, or 3D effects on brand-related text unless specified in the current season’s style guide.
Do not place the Lightning logo in immediate proximity to the logos of other NHL franchises or non-partnered sports brands.
Do not use the logo for the production of unauthorized apparel, jerseys, or merchandise. Only licensed NHL manufacturers (e.g., Fanatics, Adidas) are permitted to produce branded gear.
Avoid placing the primary blue logo on dark backgrounds where visibility is compromised. Use the white-outlined "reverse" version for dark or busy backgrounds.
Do not combine the team logo with third-party logos or text without explicit written consent.
