For hockey fans who have been waiting on the edge of their seats for the PWHL to reveal its newest teams’ names and logos—the wait is over!

On Thursday, PWHL Vancouver unveiled their new identity—the Vancouver Goldeneyes.

The long-awaited reveal featured a name and logo, created to reflect Vancouver’s pride, culture, and energy, while connecting to the broader identity of the PWHL.

According to the team, the identity is inspired by the fiercely protective Common Goldeneye—a bird native to Vancouver’s waterways, coastlines, and mountain vistas.

The team’s logo, a bold golden eye circled by wings and pointing to the Pacific Northwest, features a colour palette of the team’s primary colours—Pacific Blue, Coastal Cream, and Earthy Bronze, with hints of Sunset Gold and Sky Blue.

“It means the world to me to have a team identity for the inaugural season in Vancouver. The Goldeneyes name is powerful, bold, and tough,” said Jenn Gardiner, Goldeneyes forward and Surrey native.”

“This identity is a perfect reflection of who we are, where we come from, and that we will be relentless to play against every single night.”

Merch sporting the brand new Goldeneyes identity is available now online through The Official Shop of the PWHL.

The Goldeneyes’ new team website also goes live today, serving as a central hub for tickets, news, and team information.

The Goldeneyes will open their inaugural regular season on Friday, November 21st versus the newly-named Seattle Torrent at Pacific Coliseum.
