Yeah, I thought so being a listener of BASS. Shout out to the Flin Flon moose leg. He hasn't been around here in a while, hope he's doing well. (Not in the sense that I think the reason he hasn't been around is because he's not doing well. There's two distinct thoughts there)

Hmm... Side note: is this tweet from who I think it is @infrared41@IceCap@CS85?

I do see where they were coming from. The Wild haven't had matching jerseys since 2007 (with varying levels of team colour usage and balance) and have introduced a new alternate that is wildly (ha) different from the brand.

The Ducks also have some player issue (currently at least) stuff for the alternate, which is kind of cool and you can see the game pucks. Check the skate guards too.

I think they wanted to recreate the relative success they had with the 25th anniversary jersey and again go with a larger encompassing "anniversary" jersey as opposed to just a throwback. I don't think the answer is as simple as just "money", I think they do like to make an attempt to play around with that stuff and attempt to combine eras.

It is kind of weird seeing the socks that way. The broadcast is also using that logo and the plum eggplant.

Also also, the Jets have played Allen, Mahomes and Hurts who have put up a combined 3 touchdowns to 8 interceptions against the defence.

Also, what is this Jets team? 3-3 at the bye after the Rodgers injury and only really being out of one of those losses? I'll take that.

The Jets defence this season has always seemed to start slow, so it's not just an Eagles thing. They've given up 119 points so far this season and only 31 of those have come in the second half whereas they have given up 44 in the first quarter alone.

The template was fun but everything else about it sucked, minus not having the flags as shoulder patches. I also don't see much, if any, of this jersey around Calgary so it just kind of came and went.

Ignore the question if you want but you can see some of the Ducks breaking in the 30th equipment.

No, I think he was agreeing with me and was meaning to quote the post I first quoted.

Blasty, and the Flames subsequent chevron period, was introduced in 1998 and that same season was the first after the Flames bought the Hitmen and introduced new chevron jerseys for the Hitmen. I'm pretty sure I've posted this thought here before, but I wonder if it would have been a better look had the Flames adopted the jerseys they gave the Hitmen. Just flip the black and red and change the copper to yellow with the white C on the red jerseys. (I do have a concept I threw together but I don't know if we can still post them in non-concept threads anymore. Did I remember reading that somewhere?) It still is a chevron and keeps black as an accent, but promotes yellow to secondary.

What are you talking about? "The chevron comes up far too high, taking up way too much space"? The chevron is barely the bottom third of the jersey and the highest point doesn't seem any higher than the highest point of any basic hem striping. "the point doesn't follow a natural flow in any meaningful way"? It's the middle of the jersey.

New Brandon Wheat Kings alternate. I hate what they did to the brand.

I feel about the Rays the same way I feel about the Astros. There's a good base with good colours but the usage and application on the jerseys is just so uninspired.

Oh interesting. Yeah, they need to change the name. I wonder what the Bulldogs (OHL junior hockey) think considering they already moved for this season because of the renovations.

Yeah, no point in making new jerseys for all 32 teams just to remove a wordmark if said jerseys are getting mothballed in a year. These new jerseys have the wordmarked logo to match existing ones.

I don't know why it's so interesting because none of those jerseys are Reverse Retros and all regular NHL jerseys have the logo w/wordmark.

Would it have any impact? Some of the travel would be a bit further but they're still playing the same amount of games.

The Rush also have this new alternate logo, which I can't figure out the perspective of because the horns on bison aren't positioned like that.

Just throw a third identity on the pile? That'll make no one happy.

Stampeders logo for National Day for Truth and Reconciliation that's going on the helmets. They are also wearing accompanying helmet numbers and helmet stripe.
