I wouldn't mind a home jersey like this patterned after the original Mighty Ducks dark jersey. They could do a lot worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's supposed to be some red in the stripes, unless they made changes to their original plans. But if that's what they're going with, will it be 04 Flames jerseys in Vegas colors or something similar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColeJ Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 8 hours ago, njdevs7 said: And what are the Dallas Texans? Never seen or heard of that... The Dallas Texans were the first professional hockey team in Dallas, back in the 1940's. Here is a small excerpt about them: Quote Professional hockey in Dallas dates back to 1941, when the Dallas Texans joined the minor-league American Hockey Association. The debut occurred at Fair Park Ice Arena on November 6, 1941, when the Texans played against the St. Paul Saints in front of a crowd of more than 4,000 spectators. However, World War II caused the cancellation of league play until the 1945-46 season, when the Texans resumed play as members of the United States Hockey League. Due to travel costs, however, the Texans (along with teams in Fort Worth and Houston) dropped out of the USHL following the 1948-49 season. The Stars acquired trademarks for this long-defunct franchise during the summer, with plans to use them in celebration of Dallas's professional hockey history. Chris's article about the trademark acquisition can be found here: http://news.sportslogos.net/2016/06/22/dallas-stars-planning-1940s-texans-throwback/ The Dallas Stars have been using hashtag "#TexasOnIce" to detail some of this hockey history via Twitter. While the Dallas Stars don't have any actual connection to the Texans, other than sharing a home city, and the Texans weren't exactly an illustrious franchise that is ingrained into the memories of the local sports scene, it's pretty cool to see the Stars highlighting their existence now that hockey in Texas is no longer a novelty (to most). I found this entry especially interesting. Mentioning a newspaper article of the first ever mention of shinny being played in Dallas, all the way back in January of 1886! In the Oak Lawn neighborhood of all places. Pretty cool. _____________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still see that graphite as sort of a dark green, but it's different....i think there's supposed to be red in the striping, too, right? I believe Foley said McPhee came up with the idea... ALSO, Foley said the helmets were supposed to be "different." I took that to mean outside the box. My guess: They end up going with gold lids (perhaps like the college teams use -- thinking of Notre Dame, etc.) I'm not completely sold on black helmets. They are the GOLDEN knights after all... Again, this is just my guess, based on what I've read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Foley didn't mean that the helmets would look like knight helmets or something ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 For the second straight Saturday, the Flyers are wearing their anniversary white uniforms in a game against a California team. Regardless of whether that's scheduled or not (pretty sure the Flyers are wearing them for about every Saturday home game), it's a total dick move given their opponent(s).

The_Admiral Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 The Flyers aren't known for being courteous to visiting teams. I say being made to wear dark uniforms is getting off easy. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually debuted them at home against the Ducks (appropriately as the Ducks already wear the exact same color scheme as the 50th anniversary jersey). So that means they wore it against all three California teams. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you.

ColeJ Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The Dallas Stars made a few big announcements today, including the unveiling of a 25th Anniversary logo to be worn on the sweaters next season. Also included in the announcement was that the Stars will retire Jere Lehtinen's #26 next year (about time... just need Zubov's 56 up there now too), but no mention whatsoever about the possibility of a throwback jersey. I blame Adidas, to be honest. The Stars are still one of the few organizations in sports to have NEVER worn a throwback in an actual game, dating back 50 years. I just knew that the franchise's 50th anniversary, or the 25th anniversary of moving to Dallas would rectify that, but apparently not. Also, if this screen grab of the announcement video is any indication, the 25th logo is going to be one of those shiny chromaflex sort of patches, which is pretty cool considering it is the "silver anniversary". Who knows if that is accurate though, since obviously it is shown on a Reebok jersey and not an Adidas one in the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Oh that's cool. The patch looks 1000x better than the logo with its stupid bevels. If this patch holds up - meaning there's no durability issues - I wonder if we could see main crests out of that material. Some would look great.

Rollins Man Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 the more i see the golden knights logo the more i get into it. I think this could really be a cool look with the colors they have. maybe some golden helmets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kings decided that it was easiest to just bring 1 set, so they wore their home set. Washington, Tampa, and Florida agreed to wear white at home.

It's not like it's a last minute thing. This was decided long ago, and the teams they are playing have known about it and are prepared for it. Stop making more out of this than it is. You seem to be the only person who has a problem with this.The league, the teams, and everyone else is fine with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
