What do you think; better than the black? I like the Avs roads as they are. Having a maroon/black/white combo with only small blue accents is the way to go. Unpopular opinion??

coltravesty Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 should have black number with white then blue outlines. But its an awesome set. Hope it stays for 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think; better than the black? I think more than anything, they need to figure out if their dark color is navy or black. I’d like to see them switch all the black to navy. It may be necessary to go down to a single blue in that case, but I’d be okay with that. The third jersey color scheme feels colder to me and, in my opinion, it’s important that the main identity and third work together. I also agree that the number trim on the sleeves looks better silver like you’ve shown. Even solid silver sleeve numbers would work on both home and road, to be honest.

Why didn’t you make this happen?! I think navy replacing steel blue and black would be a great tweak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe this is just a minor nitpick. But one thing that would need to remain black is the puck in their logo. Idk about navy. The light blue accents blend in nicely with their crest.

Yeah, the light blue w/ the maroon reminds me of the Loyola Marymount teams w/ Hank Gathers and Bo Kimble. I still have the SI w/ Kimble shooting left "For you Hank" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan33 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 On paper, the black treatment shouldn't work for the Avalanche but now that they've finally fixed the jerseys, I don't see the reason for a change. They look like the two teams that lifted the Stanley Cup and that's more than we could have hoped for. The home jersey in particular looks better than ever.

It sure looks that way in these pictures from 2 nights ago. The depth of it is especially noticeable on Wennberg's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan33 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Big improvement for Pittsburgh. The Rangers, not so much. The more stripes on the hem, the worse it looks from the back (see Carolina at home). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jerseyjunk Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Sorry, i don´t see the improvement with the penguins, yes the yellow stripe is thinner, but now you got two curved hem stripes. I think it went from bad to worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeerGuyJordan Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Yep, wanted to see if I liked the Preds jerseys, in context. I don't. A patch on both shoulders and navy helmets would go a long way, but unless they win a cup in them, I'm not getting one.

Now that the navy is so minimal, they desperately need navy helmets again. Or just more navy on the jersey. Or both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
