I'm not sure where this falls on the unpopular opinion spectrum but after losing Ohtani to the Dodgers the Angels should drop the Los Angeles from their name. I really like California Angels if they don't want to represent Anaheim.

Don't like the shield logo on the chest at all. It looks ginormous. They should've just done "NEW YORK" in their traditional diagonal mark. 

They should do this for their standard away jersey

The pants were definitely more silvery/shiny back then than now.

But who really cares, it still looked great.

Canucks identity should be having a million different identities, like Oregon

It's too late to stick to one and the orca isn't even that good of an identity.

I don't get the hate for color helmets (with white jerseys) at all considering how normal it is in football 

I wonder if those would have been called trash bag uniforms if they had been worn in an era when baggy clothing wasn't the style.

I both love and hate how much the Hurricanes twitter account leans into their persona. It's actually infuriating.

The guy in the video is so much more annoying than the Carolina Hurricanes twitter account

Is this what MLB fans said when they first introduced the AL and NL Championship Series?

Huh? How does this make sense? Who the hell came up with this garbage?

I agreed with this when I first read it but not anymore. Having the games spread out allows players and teams to get better between each of them, whereas in the regular playoffs if you go cold at all you’re done.

If you don’t like that you may as well not like the in-season tournament at all. And at point you’re just not liking it because it’s new and different.

Pierre McGuire must have driven him out of DC

Seems like an improvement if anything. The elements look more “compact” if that makes sense.
 

Now what I am really afraid of is the new Fanatics template for NHL jerseys...

Having a color TV has finally paid off this weekend. This game looks outstanding.

You got a color TV already? I got a color TV so I can see the Knicks play basketball

I cannot understate how much I like the new (old) shade of orange more.

Agreed but the old uniforms are better

Look at the outlines! Not to mention the standard name on back...

He pretty much summed up how I feel. When people say "It should be full time" I often wonder if they literally mean the exact look because that's not going to fly. Do I want the Bucs to wear orange more? Sure but how about we put orange with the current pewter look? How about the Eagles create a new kelly green look? The Browns went back to their classic look but you know what they did? They modified the look. That's what you should do. You wanna go forwards not backwards with aesthetics.

I don’t think any team is wearing the EXACT design they wore back then, they all have slight changes. See those complaining that the Eagles new kelly green is brighter than it used to be (even though it looked great)

 And more importantly, a lot of these teams went backwards aesthetically to begin with. Bringing back old uniforms is going forward aesthetically for some teams, and that is more true the nicer the throwback uniforms are.

I simply can't get over the fact that they decided to wear this uniform against the Texans. Honestly, it's just a ridiculous troll job that you almost have to respect it.

If there was any way to get into the other team's heads with your choice of uniform, that is it. I doubt it actually affected anyone but it's an attempt. Maybe it would affect players from Houston, but even then most players now probably don't remember the Houston Oilers

Apologies if this has been talked about in this thread -- I have not seen anything about this, but it would appear that the Coyotes have new red helmets this season.

 

Tonight is the first time that the red alternates have been worn this season. The helmets have a matte finish (which I can't recall seeing in the NHL before? Anyone know??)

 

 

 

Last season, I am pretty sure there was just the normal "glossy" helmet finish.

 

 

 

Personally I kind of like it as something different in the league , and the matte finish plays off of the muted tones of the jersey.

 

 

 

These are pretty nice and a great fit with the throwback primary jerseys.

It's interesting how monochrome uniforms are hated in some sports and accepted or even liked in other sports though.

That reason is the Oilers are gone and the Texans aren't. Flip the order - Texans are the original team that left, Oilers replaced them - and those teams would be paying tribute to the Texans.

Eh, they might think the Oilers identity blows the Texans identity out of the water, and remember that the Texans won nothing so who really cares about them.

Arizona State is also going black, finally wearing their stupid glow-in-the-dark unis and pairing them with gold lids:

I don’t understand what makes them stupid? They look good and they actually glow in the dark which is cool.

He’s also wearing long white sleeves so I don’t get the hate, it matches.

People here really think the Dolphins primary uniforms are better than the throwbacks?
