I get the feeling this change is more than just swapping out "Reebok" for "Adidas", although that will probably be the case for teams like Montreal and Chicago. (Hoping that this is not a previously posted picture. I haven't seen this in this thread yet,) Glad they're using my iceborn template in this picture linktr.ee/McElroy19 // Graphic Design — Vegas Golden Knights. // Sports Logos and UniformsLet’s work together!!

coltravesty Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I have an idea, wouldn't it be cool if each player had their countries flag stickered on the back of their helmet? Instead of the secondary logo on the bottom left side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It hasn't really been that long since the Ducks switched to the current set but I don't know why else they'd wait a full season after Adidas takes over to change up their uniforms. Random thought: 2018-19 is the Ducks' 25th Anniversary season. Now I'm wondering if their plan is to tie in with that. 10 hours ago, Ice_Cap said: I'm hoping they go navy at home and gold on the road. Nashville basically owns gold now, so I don't see that happening. PotD: 24/08/2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massive upgrade. Hopefully Adidas makes this change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 they still need to lose the navy "frown" on the front collar and above the name on the back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Giant Pacific Octopus Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 And put the secondary logo on both shoulders. I hate it when teams have the logo on one shoulder only. It reminds me of someone wearing only one shoe. Or only one sock. The Catch of the Day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It works in baseball because baseball's been doing that forever, but in hockey or football the secondary logo should be on both shoulders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoops McCann Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Isn't the Coyotes one shoulder look a carryover from the old Winnipeg Jets? They used to have Goals For Kids on one shoulder (nothing on other), which carried over to Phoenix (GFK one 1 side, alt on other). GFK is what's missing just like Canuck Place is now gone from Vancouver... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It made sense when applied to the Lightning and Hurricanes, because those looks echoed previously established O6 identities. It made no sense with Dallas, given that no other team (O6 or otherwise) was wearing kelly green and black. *Victory Green But I guess I get what you mean. Tampa Bay is waaaay too simple, especially for a franchise that wasn't around before 1990. I like the Stars look, but still waiting for a black 3rd. Don't know what's taking so long.

Something akin to their early days in Dallas would be nice. But the Stars set is so good that I'm not sure they even need a third.

This was the case but home/away jerseys now have patches on both shoulders (MLF) Chicago Cannons, (IHA) Phoenix Firebirds - 2021 Xtreme Cup Champions (WAFL) Phoenix Federals - WAFL World Bowl XII Champions (Defunct) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJ Sands Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 Talk of the Ducks going orange reminds me again how they dropped the ball when they rebranded. They'd have a modern classic if this was their set: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demondg1 Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I'm a 1 shoulder patch kind of guy. Two of the same patch is redundant. Also, having only one secondary logo patch leaves a shoulder open for anniversary or special event patches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much black, the metallic gold blended with the white stripes on TV, and the orange is so minimal that it may as well not be there - and this is again in spite of them playing up Orange County and #PaintItOrange and all that jazz. The striping design is the only standout feature, and even then it's not interesting because the colour balance is about as safe and boring as it gets.

And looking again what I posted, the set is dynamic and evokes action and movement. Combine that with the ingenious Webbed D logo and this uniform would have aged very well. Alas...

The logo instantly evokes the team's nickname and is just as clearly a D. It's a really strong and clever mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd have a modern classic if this was their set: Give the stripes the colour distribution of the current set, wrap the hem stripe all the way around and you've got the perfect Ducks identity. The horizontal 'swoosh' was so much more effective than the wacky side panels and it tipped the hat to the Mighty Ducks years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
