twi 380 Posted January 10, 2015 If this really comes to fruition, they'll probably pull a Minnesota and dye the road jersey into clean white. So that they'll have a standard white road like every other team. Plus, it eliminates the helmet color issue.But if for some reason, they just go with the 2 heritage jerseys as they are now, it would be very interesting to actually see a team with a cream colored helmet. I'm pretty sure there's a rule that would dissallow them to keep one helmet for all times, unlike the minor leagues.White would be decent too but I think it would take away such a great opportunity and I find the cream really suits the jersey. For the Cream jersey, they need black helmets. A cream colored helmet would kind of ruin the entire look. I'm sure the NHL wouldn't have an issue with the Senators using black helmets for the cream jersey if it becomes the full time road jersey.There would be a problem with black helmets on the road any time you played a team with black home helmets. The two teams aren't allowed to wear the same color. Those jerseys are best left as a rarely used alternate anyway. The best look for the Senators would be to blow it all up and start over. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's why I like yellow/athletic gold as an alternate to white. It stands out well. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_RH_ 655 Posted January 10, 2015 ...speculation of an Avalanche overhaul at the hands of Sakic/Roy to coincide with their 20th anniversary in Colorado...I'd love this to be true; was this heard from a relevant source? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chromatic 2,708 Posted January 11, 2015 In my perfect world:Every team with a phantom yoke ditches it or goes all the way.Canucks keep the exact same jerseys they have now but change the orca for the stick-in-rink, put Johnny on the shoulders.Flames ditch the piping to nowhere and flag patchesPhoenix adds a hem stripe.Carolina brings back the storm flagsPenguins promote their throwbacks to full time status, make matching roadsSharks, Avs, and Ducks start over, keeping the same colours and logos. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IceCap 22,597 Posted January 11, 2015 I can dig all of that. I'd also add that I'd like to see the Wild pick a template and run with it. I don't even care which one it is at this point. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

buckeye 425 Posted January 21, 2015 I'd also add I'd like to see either a complete change or just a number font change to the CBJ jerseys. Think it's time, and not that they've had real success in them to keep them around forever. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M4One 1,440 Posted January 22, 2015 So Boston's got the Winter Classic next year against Montreal and according to @TSNBobMcKenzie, Colorado and Minnesota will finally get an outdoor game. The Wild will play Chicago and Colorado vs Detroit. Wonder what kind of uniforms Reebok will break out for those two games after breaking out the chrome/carbon fiber the last two years? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chewbacca 408 Posted January 22, 2015 So Boston's got the Winter Classic next year against Montreal and according to @TSNBobMcKenzie, Colorado and Minnesota will finally get an outdoor game. The Wild will play Chicago and Colorado vs Detroit. Wonder what kind of uniforms Reebok will break out for those two games after breaking out the chrome/carbon fiber the last two years? Chicago again!? I don't know about the Chicago/Minnesota and Colorado/Detroit games if they are Stadium Series games. I can't see Chicago playing a third Outdoor Game in three years, let alone the Red Wings in some chrome/carbon fiber futuristic jersey. I know Chicago went chrome last season but their jersey was a slightly altered version of their long time former black third jersey. This will definitely be something to watch. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've grown to like the Alternate more and more, but I still think the identity involved with the Home/Away is a good one, just needs a tiny bit of tweaking. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jwdieterich 0 Posted January 22, 2015 Flames wake up and realize piping+stripes+flags=crapjohnny gaudreau is from a few towns over from where i grew up (and has youth camps at the rink i played at) and i want his jersey, but i refuse to get it until they change the jersey. i am tempted to get the third jersey they have, but not quite ready to commit to that either. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
