They dropped the plain pants after last season. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chico 241 Posted May 25, 2017 From the Yahoo Sports article on the subject. "The Devils have been one of the most intriguing names on this list, and Creamer punted on offering details because he knows too much. Everything we’ve heard was that the logo is safe, the colors are still black and red, and that the biggest change might be the black “belt” coming off the bottom part of the sweater." If this is true what a terrible change for change sake move. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C's 106 Posted May 25, 2017 The Bruins' current home/away set is flawless, I really hope that these rumored 'changes' only involve an alternate of some sort. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
njdevs7 894 Posted May 25, 2017 Yea I'm pretty nervous for this Devils jersey. Sounds like a change for change sake, and most likely a downgrade....so disappointing, especially for a team with such a strict uniform tradition. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No alternates next year so likely not. I hope it's just a different cut changing the yoke or something slightly and that being it. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Prince Harry 246 Posted May 25, 2017 Kind of happy the Oilers are switching to Navy. It complements the orange better and I've always felt Royal and Orange clash when put together. I guess that's why I always would get a headache looking at the Blue 80s jersey. Too much competition between the two colours or something like that. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm talking about this: I know the Islanders use a lighter blue, but a Orange dominate jersey with Navy as the secondary was 1st done by the Islanders & it looked terrible. The idea works on paper.... but I feel the balance is off & it won't work for the Oilers. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ColeJ 1,268 Posted May 25, 2017 My Dallas prediction (not a wish, but a prediction): Different font, maybe same font with outlines. A road jersey more in line with the home jersey? No yoke? Death of the tie-up collar. Worst case realistic scenario: Roundel to main crest, more black usage, outlined font. I'd love to just see green helmets at home instead of black...... Take us closer to green and black rangers than green Blackhawks... But that wouldn't count as a redesign would it?! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FinsUp1214 5,676 Posted May 25, 2017 Well, shoot...sounds like my favorite matchup in the NHL is likely out the door. It just won't look nearly as good with the Oilers in navy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cosmic 6,457 Posted May 26, 2017 I don't mind them, but I feel like the Adidas designers probably twitch when they see how busy the Bruins' names/numbers are. That's a lot of outlines for those tiny names. I don't think it looks great, but I do like that it's a recognizable Bruins thing. The Sabres don't have the best decision-making record, on or off the ice, in the last ten years or so. I'm extremely nervous. The current jerseys are far from perfect, but they're not embarrassing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just the whites would change a little(orange yolks or something). I was bitching about my Oilers shirts being navy. Or the logo on my orange hat/shirts looking more navy than royal, kind of a tweener. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
