With striping similar to the inaugural set, this could have looked really sharp. It's a shame the team has to throw the baby out with the bathwater and go with the far less interesting "=0=" when the fix is that simple. While the font change is definitely and upgrade, on the whole these are even worse than what they were wearing before. The old look was a template-y mess, but at least it was a template designed for the Edge jerseys. Now the side panels don't even connect with the underarm panel. It's just a floating blob of colour. I also thought the collars might look better in full gear, but they really don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to because I want to hate everything Vegas Golden Knights but i find myself liking the colors and uniforms more and more. They have essentially brought back the 80s/early 90s Canucks colors. I don't even hate the white gloves with the white sweater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also happy they've significantly shrunk in size and no longer overlap with the numbers. I agree with you about the collars though. Those are just awful.

njdevs7 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Random question...was on Mitchell and Ness site and saw they have 2 different 1997 Lindros Flyers jerseys. One is "Orange" and the other is "Burnt Orange" Why are there 2 different versions and which one is correct? http://shop.nhl.com/Jerseys/Mens_Philadelphia_Flyers_Eric_Lindros_Mitchell_And_Ness_Burnt_Orange_Authentic_Vintage_Jersey http://shop.nhl.com/Jerseys/Mens_Philadelphia_Flyers_Eric_Lindros_Mitchell_And_Ness_Orange_Throwback_Authentic_Vintage_Jersey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CreamSoda Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Vegas did a tremendous job of not looking like anybody else in the league. With those colors, they easily could have looked like the Penguins or Ducks. A+ job for the Golden Knights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gold does pop. The black and the grey are used just right as well. I don't know how successful they're going to be, but those uniforms are absolutely beautiful.

daniel75 Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 My only real problem is the ornament design on the sleeves and logo. Fortunately it's not noticeable from a distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 I think it's strange for such a feature not to be represented in digital graphics (unless it is now; it wasn't when the embroidery debuted). Like, it's either part of the logo or it isn't. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree because I don’t think it adds much (other than extra colors and complexity) at small size or when executed in flat media, but when executed in large scale and in textured, dimensional media, it adds a lot of richness and depth. It’s not part of the logo, but it’s part of the *crest,* and that makes it much more engaging.

CDunn Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think the specifics of the Adidas socks has been discussed. Are there any new/different materials or construction in the Adidas socks versus the Reebok ones? From some Traverse City Tournament photos it looks like some seams may have moved, but that could be just players wearing them crooked. Anybody have any insight?

Morgan33 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I think the embellishments should been restrained to the logo. Adding them to the sleeve stripes just seems like overkill. At any rate, the uniform looks fantastic on the ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it's a new color. Bauer has had a line where you can make a custom helmet for a while and grey hasn't ever been an option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
