The_Admiral Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 1 hour ago, CreamSoda said: Great points! we wouldn't expect the details of the Blackhawks crest to appear in their flat logo. The "details" of the Hawks' logo are a consequence of the chain-stitching, not logo details in and of themselves. The ornamentation in the Knights' logo is just something that's added on in one application of the logo but not another. I know there are little quirks like this across sports (the Flyers' crest with the outline in graphics but not crests comes to mind) but I don't like them. Branding is supposed to be too sophisticated for that now. If you add this stuff to the physical crest, the graphics should reflect it, too. The flourishes are tacky and faux-opulent in a very Las Vegas way, embrace it across the board. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4One Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Not sure if it has been mentioned or not, but it seems like the white gloves for Vegas might be for road only and it'll be black at home. As unique as the white gloves might be, I hope Vegas abandons them rather quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Eventually they will have a gold alternate and it will soon become their primary home uniform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would never know either way because they’re black details on a black background. :-) I still don't have a website, but I have a dribbble now! http://dribbble.com/andyharry [The postings on this site are my own and do not necessarily represent the position, strategy or opinions of adidas and/or its brands.] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 The Bruins should never not wear the yellow socks. That is their thing. They should've redesigned the striping in 07 to match the jerseys stripes when the EDGE came out, but at least the color was correct. The new white socks with stripes that match the white jerseys stripes are an improvement, but the yellow socks didn't need to be sacrificed in order to achieve that.

Echo Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 In a vacuum I'd say the black socks look better with that uniform, but it doesn't look like the Bruins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I love sparkly uniform material. It was really popular in the NHL in the late 90s-early 00s, but sadly has become less prominent... until now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bruins ruined their perfect look, when there were no issues to begin with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shachihoko Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Just saw this today... They are doing a Media day, I'm confused... Why white helmet?? I love the gloves, but the helmet is going to be white too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shachihoko Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Just in, here's are several images of the Fanatics replicas via twitter... Look like VGK won't be having the sagebrush on the gold part of the sleeves, the NHL shield isn't chrome. Why put the stupid tag between the lines on the hem? It look awful!

Ark Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Add gold to the helmet to match the gloves and it would work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something mirroring the yoke might look nice, maybe just get rid of the yellow at the bottom or top of the old sock.

Pretty much what most want. The numbers are at worst a lateral move, but the socks make a big difference. Only other thing I've seen is the captain C looks too compressed for a block font. Almost circular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shachihoko Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 On the Fanatics VGK jersey, look like the sagebrush is on the shield too. The gold sleeves will have nothing on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
