Its not like we're here to discuss anything. Just nod our heads in agreement about how amazing/terrible something looks.Obviously some horrible design choices have come with the EDGE jersey. But I like the cut a lot better. The "traditional" hockey sweaters looked like an oversized poncho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legend Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 When they first came out, I hated the rounded hems. I am so used to it now that it doesn't bother me at all.Agreed. Plus I remember some teams fixing them so they weren't so drastic. I still prefer the traditional hockey sweater, ok not traditional in the sweater sense like the early days, but from the 70's on.

TorinK92 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 The curved hem would have looked alright if the curve was more subtle and not curved in the front, like why is that even necessary?My solution (In my own perfect world): flat front, notch on the sides, and the back is lowered slightly below the front and curved in an actual curved line, not that flat swoop they have now. That IMHO would look much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TorinK92 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Yeah, sort of like that but with a less dramatic of a curve at the back.(Unpopular opinion, hut I loved that sweater btw) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at that Blackhawks photo again. Straight lines and a rounded hem. Looks pretty terrible. The round hems don't fit into any aspect of the uniform at all. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Giant Pacific Octopus Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 but hopefully it's the beginning of the transition from gladiator to heritage look as the primary. God i hope not. I think the gladiator is so much cooler looking then those "O" jerseys. Plus it gives the modern Senators their own look and identity rather than copying their predecessors. The Catch of the Day!

Jer15 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I think that people just associate the rounded hem with the slimmer cut and accept that it is just part of the look. It doesn't have to be that way.I agree that the slimmer fit of the edge jerseys look better, but the hem should not be rounded. The Rangers ended up pinning/sewing their jerseys when the edge cut first came out so that the hem didn't look rounded. Why can't this just be done?

Sport Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 Tonight is the first time I've gotten to see the Stars new road uniforms in person. They are pretty. They're some black outlines away from being perfect. I think they're that good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan33 Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 I wonder if the Sens will use their vintage white heritage uniforms again during the season. And i hope it gets promoted to the full time road jsersey along with the black one becoming the full time home. Finally, the Sens would have their own identity !I think Cyril Leeder confirmed that they will wear them for at least one home game this season. This might be just to show them off in front of a home crowd to boost jersey sales, but hopefully it's the beginning of the transition from gladiator to heritage look as the primary. With all the great logos the modern version of the Senators have produced, going with a Times New Roman "O" on two stripes would be a tragedy. Updated 2d senator on the inaugural jersey template and they have the perfect look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree again and again ! That was the best set they ever worn. I had a the black one when i was young but i don't anymore. They should never have switched the black with the awful red one in 2000.

Kevin W. Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I prefer the 3D version to the 2D version but the Sens need to go back to those uniforms ASAP. They're a great example of a franchise that never should have changed their look, no matter what certain tradition haters say.

-kj Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Those jerseys were awful. I will never understand why people liked them. They were even worse when the black jerseys had no white trim. And that logo? Miserable. The best jersey template they've had was the third with the laurels: Use the new logo on the front, the new 2-D on the shoulders (because the Peace Tower logo was a joke), and find a font that isn't Serpentine or Copperplate. Make it red, even, if you prefer that. Make a white version. Done. Dusted. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!
