Jerseys are very bland. Heather effect doesn’t make up for that Considering the NBA and Nike did it to put the focus on players’ shoes — what are you emphasizing with the sweaters? Is there a skate market I’m not aware of? This just wreaks of copycatting. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

mcj882000 Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 What I don't get is, if you're gonna rip someone else off, why not steal something good instead of the NBA's boring colourless ASG unis? What a waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4One Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 I'm going against the grain and say for an all-star jersey, it should be the NHL or conference/division logos. What you have basically is an expensive version of the type of generic jerseys you can buy at Canadian Tire for $50, with each jersey featuring the team logo using the same design. At least those are in the team colours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Admiral Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 If we had kept the choose-up-sides model, the best ASG format the league ever had, I'd say the best approach would be a standardized sweater design with palette-swapped crests for the individual players. That way it's clear who's on which team for the game but also which team they're on all year. (And black/neon green logos would look cool.) For this divisional mini-tournament format, I think it's the right time for diagonal lettering for everyone with the division names. I don't see the point in a sweater that just has an NHL logo on it. It reminds me of teams that don't have their crap ready for the draft. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prince Harry Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Something where every division has a specific trim colour would be cool. I’m fine with black and white sets for each as it would make contrast within the games easier. The 3 on 3 tourney at the LA ASG was kind of hard to watch with black vs purple in the West game.

Really the team logo in BW works for a drafted NBA ASG team where Conferences don't matter. "I always wanted to be somebody, but now I realize I should have been more specific."

_RH_ Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 "Inspired by the colors of the game - crisp white, like a fresh sheet ice and contrasting black, like a brand-new puck - the environmentally-conscious uniforms create an instantly classic aesthetic that pays homage to tools of the game."

(I'd still prefer East vs. West but it's close at least.) I still don't get why the NFL and NBA decided that's just what their own all-star games needed? 4 hours ago, the admiral said: Oh, I thought the NHL should always try to be like the NBA, the perfect child that never does anything wrong. And frankly I don't even get your point here - is that aimed at me? If so, when did I ever say the NHL needs to be more like the league that decided ads on jerseys was the right thing to do? Case in point, when the NBA stole the NHL's dumb ASG format they didn't even do it right for its first two years - why would you schedule an ASG based around an all-star fantasy draft, and then not televise the draft? If you want to speed up the ASG's death then yeah, injecting silly gimmicks like a draft or a 3v3 tournament into it are absolutely the right way to accomplish that, in my opinion. I guess I'm one of the few people who actually still enjoys a regular ol' All-Star Game, especially in the NHL where it's one of the few times a year the wooden stiffs who play the game actually let loose and show some personality, even if just a little.

The NFL Vikings have worn it for decades. Same as the NBA Lakers. It's bold and distinctive. I can't see anything wrong with the Kings' original purple and yellow look(minus the yellow pants). I would go with white(away), yellow-gold(3rd), silver and purple(home). I love the forum blue and gold jerseys myself but for me, I feel the Kings should stick with black, white and silver. After winning two cups in black, white, and silver and also having Wayne Gretzky's career as a Los Angeles King in their current color scheme, I think the Kings current scheme should be permanent. For me, they should go back to the Gretzky-era jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, they should go back to the Gretzky-era jerseys. The problem is that the NHL badly needs a purple team, in all due respect to the Gretzky-era and the 2 Cup wins. Almost any team can wear black but who else can execute purple(Forum blue) better tban a team called "Kings"? The Kings should proudly own purple the way the Sharks own teal and the Golden Knights own steel grey. This is why I favour these three colour schemes other than the originals: 1. White(primary light), yellow-gold, deep silver(nod to Gretzky-era) and purple. Classic crown as sweater crest. 2. White, silver and purple with classic crown. 3. (What should have been in '88) White, metallic gold(like VGK's) and purple with classic crown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let another team embrace purple, if purple is so "necessary" to the league. 2 hours ago, VancouverFan69 said: The Kings should proudly own purple the way the Sharks own teal and the Golden Knights own steel grey. Well, the Sharks aren't particularly good at "owning" teal, seeing as how the jerseys, logos and specific shade of teal aren't all that fantastic. Brighten it/remove black and add a lighter accent color, and you'd have something. I'll give you Vegas, of course. There is no "pride" in purple for the Kings. It's the color worn during the franchise's years of irrelevance. It may be good from a point of "color diversity," but not for the Kings.

WSU151 Posted January 10, 2019 Share Posted January 10, 2019 I don't think the Sharks will ever remove black, nor should they. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
