I'd assume pretty much every team except the Caps is going to wear their normal home/road set.  The Sharks were the only other one who ever showed an inclination to wear a 3rd in the playoffs and they've done away with that idea already.

You can only wear one home uniform during a playoffs. If they pick black, they're stuck with black through thick and thin.

 

Ok. So maybe that's why the Mighty Ducks were locked into those ridiculous black and eggplant alts during their 2006 playoff run.

Yup. I was at the last game of the year that season and they mentioned that over the loudspeakers. 

 

 

Actually, I kinda liked those black alts, for some strange reason. I picked up an authentic version of that jersey that night for like 75% off. Chain stitched front crest, fight strap, padded shoulders. It was really nice.

The script was bad and nobody even noticed the eggplant elements from their televisions.

 

I'll bet our boy Purple even thinks those unis sucked!

The Ducks should just wear these in the playoffs. Its almost as bad as that Disney crap they currently wear. In fact I would take them more seriously if they wore these than that Disney garbage. Seriously all they would have to do is swap out "Oregon" for "Anaheim" and swap out the O's with OC's, and it would be better than their current thirds.

The Catch of the Day!

So... swap out mask logo, bring in a logo that strongly resembles actually is Donald Duck, to make them "less Disney".

 

Okay.

As for the black Mighty Ducks third, I liked that for what it was. But on its own and from an objective standpoint, it's a bit generic. I wasn't too keen on them being used in the playoffs that one year, or influencing the direction the rebrand would take. Oh well.

Anyway, I think it's almost a lock that the Capitals where their thirds, whether it's for just a few games or for all of them.

I actually liked them. Traditional striping, the MD shoulder logo, and I was a sucker for anything that actually said Anaheim on the front at the time.

 

My only real problem with them is that there was also a team just up the road with a primarily black jersey with purple striping and silver accents. Little too similar to that for my liking. I own one, and wear it occasionally, but I'm choosy about which games to wear it to. (Hint: Not the LA games.)

Just stop. Shut up. Enough. Go back under your sea rock.

And ha! Nice one, Sharks. This is the year it all turns around, huh?

 

Just an interesting note from that article:
 

Quote

 

"The other option would have been for the Sharks to wear their well-received throwback Heritage Jersey, featuring the original shade of teal, introduced this season for the club’s 25th anniversary. The Sharks finished 0-3-2 in those sweaters, however. They are 3-2-1 in their black sweaters, and 14-13-0 in their teal sweaters headed into Thursday's home game with Vancouver."

 

 

Most of that comes from the Sharks horrible home record, but always interesting.

 

And this was in there at the end, and I wanted to restate it in case anyone forgot (and how could we!):

 

Quote

"The black sweater, introduced in 2008-09, was preferred by the players in the playoffs because many felt they had a lighter feel with less material than the others. The Sharks revised their home and road sweaters prior to the 2013-14 season with that in mind, reducing some of the extra ornamentation on the home teals and road whites."

My official prediction is that the Caps, Pens, and Wild will all wear their thirds in the playoffs. Everyone else will stick with the normal home/road.

I have a feeling that the Ducks will wear their alts. in the playoffs. And that would be great, because then all the Cali teams won't be wearing black. Only one will. (I know the Sharks already announced they're wearing teal, but Anaheim and LA both have black homes...)

Lame. Those orange jerseys are SO good. Easily top three in the league IMO. Their black home jerseys, on the other hand? Awful. Probably my least favorite in the league. That terrible striping pattern reminds me of those generic basketball shorts you can get at Wal Mart.

Anaheim's thinking: Kings fans who invade "Staples South" will get mixed up and root for the team in black.

 

Speaking of.. Have we confirmed the Sharts are wearing teal (not their intimidating "Black Armor") in their series vs. LA?
