That's absolutely true and TVs are also bigger, but the lighting in every rink is still the same and the ice is just as bright ahah. I find most dark jerseys that don't have any white on them generally look great and colorful in person but drab and lifeless on TV. Maybe that's just me, but that's something I noticed

I own the coat of arms version of that jersey and it looks gorgeous in person. Pictures don't do it justice. On TV it looked muddy, though. Not unlike the Kachina jerseys. It looks a bit dated now

Okay, enough with the furry stuff

Yeah I know but it's the Coyotes lol. I wouldn't put it past them to keep the howling head away jersey for one more year. Why wouldn't they unveil the new jersey at the draft? Nothing they do ever seems to make sense anyway. Maybe I'm just impatient!

You mean that's NOT a Stampeders jersey? lmao

They're still using the howling coyote head on their official website and on the NHL's website where they're announcing the draft picks, so that's puzzling. Somehow I'm not convinced the rumors are true. Either way, what a mess. This team can't do anything right

I'm kind of surprised the Coyotes haven't unveiled their new/old away jersey yet. I feel like the draft would have been a perfect opportunity

Wow. That looks incredible

Is it me or do they kinda look like the Vikings in GB Packers colors?

I dunno. The blue Sabres logo looks fine on their blue jersey. The black Flyers logo looks awesome on a black jersey. The Habs make their red logo work on a red jersey with a blue chest stripe. There are ways to make it work and they could have pulled it off I think No **** lol. What I'm saying is that seafoam should have been the primary color. I'm still hoping the gloves are seafoam blue or that the pants have a thick seafoam blue stripe at the very least. Solid navy gear would look seriously boring Now that you mention it, the shoulders do look a little bare lol. Can't unsee it now. Jersey is ruined for me

And a contrasting stripe between the two similar looking light blue bands on the sleeves. The more I look at them, the more I like the white jersey and the less Iike the navy one. It's just so dark, it reminds me of a jersey that could have been introduced in the late 90s. Also, the thin red stripe thing, if I were Vegas I would be pissed cause they clearly took inspiration from the Knights jerseys. Why not a seafoam blue home jersey?

Which is pointless because the people who buy knockoffs don't care about how accurate the details are. As long as it's "close enough" and most importantly, only $22 on some shady overseas website

Right! I remember seeing those on Icethetics now. Or maybe on here, can't remember. Not bad but it feels kinda like an ECHL jersey to me in a way that I can't describe

Devils and LA, I'd be more than okay with that. Pens, yeah I guess the RR is slightly better than the gold 3rd. They're both very "meh" imo. Jets, hell yeah. That would be nice!

Devils: bringing back the red and green throwback? Penguins: double blue throwback? Jets: probably just one of the WC jerseys promoted to full time? Which is a shame imo, I loved the light blue 3rd with the Jets script LA: no idea

Interesting! Source?

Imo, the Canes are a team that got it right the first time and every jersey they've unveiled since has been a disappointment. The original jerseys have aged really well and wouldn't look out of place or dated in today's NHL. They had their own identity, they were red from top to bottom but no one could have mistaken them for the Red Wings. I know "just go back to the OG jerseys" is a boring solution but they should have never moved on from them in the first place. I don't like the black jersey either, as a personal rule of thumb, if you need different gear color to go with your 3rd jersey and it's not a throwback, you're straying too far from your identity

Not gonna lie, I also included the Caps at first but I ended up deleting it before posting lol. The striping/piping is outdated crap obviously, but the color balance is nice, the number font is great and I personally like the logos, so it's definitely in the bottom 5 for me but it's not on Anaheim's level where absolutely nothing is salvageable. They just need to move on from the Edge template for something a little more traditional and keep everything else imo. Something closer to their new 3rd jersey, maybe with a couple more stars so that it doesn't look too bland or generic

Honestly that's a good thing. I don't think the league as a whole has ever looked that good. I'm not saying every team is perfect and some could use a few tweaks here and there obviously but Anaheim is the only team with a truly awful set of regular home and away jerseys imo. 1 out of 32 isn't that bad

No, it's a Youtuber literally called The Hockey Guy lol

If it wasn't for the neckline, I'd be tempted to buy women's jerseys instead They're also cheaper! It's about time they update the cut on those replicas though. Fashion has changed a lot in 20 years and the NBA have finally fixed the stupid looking boxy replicas with the wide shoulders, the NFL needs to follow suit

I think he meant to ask, what do you mean by "new classic sweaters"?

When will they ever make replica jerseys with shorter sleeves? It's almost comical how weird the 3/4 yellow long sleeves look next to the jersey worn by Aaron Donald. So much negative space. I'm not saying I want tanktops but maybe something a little closer to what QBs wear, since most modern designs are made with almost-tanktops in mind anyway, so the replicas end up looking not even close to the real thing

Yeah yeah I get it. My whole point is that UNTIL the Raiders come out with a black helmet, I'm 99% sure the 2 helmet rule will only be used by certain teams for throwback uniforms and that you're all overreacting for no reason, hence my "knee jerk" comment. Any kind of change to the status quo isn't inherently a negative thing you know?

Yeah it would objectively look great. But some people on here will say it's awful garbage just cause it's not silver and that the Raiders didn't have a black helmet in the 1980s so it's automatically wrong. At this point it's just silly lol. But I get it, when the Habs announced they would be wearing blue jerseys I had the same knee jerk reaction, so I'm not gonna be a hypocrite and pretend I'm better than every else for being more open minded
