habsfan1 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 If the fad at the moment is modernized throwbacks, why can't the Avs do the same thing and bring back their throwback mountain pattern jerseys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so amazingly ugly, looks like the just as lame Cubs cap logo ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even close, the single layer is just as dull and flat as Tampa´s logo ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VancouverFan69 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 The original Avalanche uniform is horrible because it was way, way overdone. Only the primary A-mountain crest and the burgundy dark base give those uniforms credibility. A great Colorado concept would have the A-mountain as the primary, no black(except the puck in the logo), more burgundy(ie. dark helmets), lighter blue instead of navy, mountain trimming limited to the hemline, legible font and the Colorado C shoulder patch.

At least they'll look good while (hopefully) losing to the Flyers all season. B.

The original Avalanche set never had Navy. What you call overdone, I call fresh and unique. The mountain striping was a stroke of genius and made perfect sense for the team's namesake. It even referenced the denver flag in a subtle way. I could do without the three layer numbers but everything else was spot on, especially the shoulder patch which represented the teams topography in an extremely clever way. I can understand not liking it as much as me, but horrible? Come on now... I think the awfulocity of the current set has a lot to do with the recent trend of disparaging this modern classic...

BBTV Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 Does the Penguins crest seem huge to anyone else?

elliott Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Watching the Dodgers Pirates game and I'm seeing that the Pirates alternate throwback uniform (amazing uniform, by the way) uses virtually an identical striping pattern as the now full-time Penguins throwback uniforms.. ....Paying attention specifically to the way that the black-white-yellow stripe separates areas of yellow and black Maybe that has been recently mentioned in this thread, so sorry if it has, but can you guys think of another city like this? personally i cant, obviously we all know the Pittsburgh teams are aligned color wise (of course cities like New York with the Mets and Knicks have the same color scheme)..... but now two of the teams use virtually identical striping elements.

Good catch, yes, it is larger than the previous incarnation of this uniform set. The size of the crest logo has fluctuated over the years, but I prefer the larger version.
