worcat Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Could they atleast make the NY the same size of the stick? Jesus can they do anything right? Bleeding Blue since 1986 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Could they atleast make the NY the same size of the stick? Jesus can they do anything right?If you're referring to the diagonal stroke, it's that way in the original. And it's the best part of the monogram. Now I see they've shortened the stick a bit. That I'm not in love with. It was better in the original, just remove the silly silver lining and you're good to go. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

TheLAKnight Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 The collar is similar to the Oilers alternate, but not quite. Flip it, remove the triangle, and boom Islanders collar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coast2CoastAM2006 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Yes, it could _Eww, gross. I can deal with this if it was a one off fashion jersey. As an in ice product to be worn multiple times, this is another eye sore alternate from the Isles. Spoilers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerslionspistonshabs Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 It's extremely underwhelimg, but it's not absolutely terrible to look at like some the Isles' past unis have been. It'll be another 1 or 2 seasons and done. I'm looking forward to the day they play the Rangers in the Winter Classic with a Brooklyn Americans throwback.

BrianLion Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I've been an Islander fan for over 3 decades now (born in MI, moved to NY at age 10) and this one hurts. I get that we were going to have to bite the bullet on a Brooklyn-ized 3rd jersey and it was going to be black and white. And I made peace with that, because I think the benefits of playing in Barclay's far outweigh the drawbacks, so I'm willing to have an off center scoreboard and a third jersey designed after the color scheme of an NBA team who hasn't had 1/10 the success we've had. But this is just bad. If we were going to do a "Brooklyn" third, then do a "Brooklyn" third. This jersey says nothing about Brooklyn, other than sharing the Nets boring ass monochrome color scheme and minimalist feel. This jersey feels more like it's for a 40 and over Men's League (don't knock it, we're pretty competitive) in Syosset or virtually anywhere in NY state. There's nothing uniquely "Brooklyn" about this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Well, black and white has become the de facto Brooklyn color scheme in recent years. So yeah, it does actually reference the borough. I don't like the color scheme, I wish they used team colors, but the jerseys are absolutely "Brooklyn". The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

The_Admiral Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 It's become the color scheme because Jay-Z told a basketball team from New Jersey to start using it. It's not really an organic development. It references the Nets. That's it. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-kj Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 The NY by itself is probably the best crest the Islanders have ever worn. Buy some t-shirts and stuff at KJ Shop!
