Ugh.  Colorado going with the State inspired look.  I get it’s the Rockies colors but I’m so over the state flag dress up.

Ah, yes. Very distinct.

 

lol yikes.  I didn’t realize they were so similar.  Carolina looks like a cheap knockoff of Ottawa.

I hate this move for the hurricanes.  Their red sweater is so much better. 

I can’t see the NHL going with a hockey only company like CCM.  

They will want a name the average fan recognizes.   Like Nike….

Ugh.  Adidas did such a good job getting the NHL uniforms looking great.  
 

im worried Nike or Fanatics is gonna come and try and revolutionize the hockey uniform.  We don’t need another Reebok Edge style revamp.

This shows exactly why switching to blue equipment was the right call for Colorado 

Exactly.  It clearly shows how much more cohesive and honestly just plain better the blue equipment looks with that uniform. 

Wait?  People like the Rockies one?  I find it really hideous.  Especially with the promising color palette of green and purple.  

My definitive list of the best uniform matchups of the first round:

1.  NYR and Pittsburgh

2.  Calgary and Dallas

3.  Minnesota and St Louis

4.  Carolina and Boston

5.  Colorado and Nashville

6.  Edmonton and LA

7.  Florida and Washington

8.  Toronto and Tampa Bay

It went 7 games, including a near 3-1 comeback. What's not to like?

The only thing not to like is that Edmonton didn't win it. 

is this an official alternate jersey?  

If so, what are the rules for alternate jerseys in the NHL?  Is there a 3 year minimum or whatever they have to have these and wear them at least 12 games a year?

Or is just a one off jersey for this season?

To the "why would a company even do that nobody buys something because they saw a jersey ad" or "it's so small, you'll never see it so who cares???" crowd, you're dumb. You are dumb. You think advertising is a billions dollar industry because it doesn't work? LOL get out of here. 

 

Yeah, people love to think they aren't influenced by advertising....  But how else are they aware of the products, brands, services, etc, that they buy, use, etc.  

it's proven to work and companies will continue to pollute whatever space is available to them.

Tampa Bay looks too much like Toronto.    Tampa Bay adds a small amount of black to help!

Toronto adds black.....

Player salaries are ok at the moment and the players were firmly in the right in the 04-05 lockout.

compared to other sports?  Sure the NHL is ok.

the bastardization of sports uniforms to grow player salaries and owners profits is disgusting.    Nothing else to say about it.

I would love the Rockies to be full time green and purple.  Great color combo and would be unique compared to all the black teams.

The Carolina-Edmonton final was quite forgettable.  Still hilarious that they put 'Eastern' on the left side and 'Western' on the right.

lol what?

Carolina Edmonton is one of my favorite Finals in the last 20 years.....

Are the Rockies getting a new uniform?

Love it.  Looks super classy and is a huge upgrade from the tacky italic bold aggressive logo the last 9 years.

Huge upgrade to the old SC logo.  Nicely done 

Canucks should go to the black/red/yellow set full time. 

The like thumbs up is not showing up.  Likely due to a filter applied on the CSS.  You can change the brightness on this element to 100% and it will show up.

Current:

.ipsReact_button {
    filter: grayscale(100%) brightness(160%);
}

Fixed:

.ipsReact_button {

filter: grayscale(100%) brightness(100%);

}

Dark/thin red/dark.   That’s it.  No other similarities at all.  I hardly call that even enough to warrant such a discussion or obsession 

Why is the bengals logo black on black in the person highlighting graphic…
