DTConcepts Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Pittsburgh/New York is probably the best overall matchup, but the games in Colorado will be pretty nice too. I don't particularly like the Flames' regular home/away set but they look pretty decent now, without the stupid piping. Plus, the Avs' home unis are perfect.

The Blue Jackets are the only team in the NHL with a navy home jersey accented in red. There are only three teams in the NHL that use navy and red, and both the others (Capitals and Panthers) wear red. Hell, there are only three teams in the NHL now that wear navy at home, period (Jets and Sabres). It is far from an overused scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be true but in the end it's just a variation of the tired, patriotic, red, white and blue scheme that's be done to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Throwing my hat into the "Nashville and Dallas should absolutely go color rush in this series" ring. I can't think of a single good reason why teams don't do this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartacat_12 Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 I just saw the NHLPA's Twitter account posted this picture today as they promote tonight's series openers: When I saw the sleeve numbers on the Blues, I realized it was not this year's uniform, but then I noticed they included the updated (white) captain's C on Pietrangelo.

M4One Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I think teams should normally wear their dark jerseys at home, but I wonder if Winnipeg would be allowed to wear their white jersey to complete the white out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartacat_12 Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I have said it before, but I think the NHL should allow teams to designate any set as the "home" uniform for the playoffs. This way teams like Winnipeg or Arizona can wear white to match their fans. As long as it is communicated ahead of time, it shouldn't cause any equipment logistics issues, as a team like St. Louis would know to pack their blue jerseys/socks/helmets instead of the white. In fact it may make things easier for equipment managers, as they might only need to worry about 1 set for the entire series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a thought recently where the NHL would adopt a sweater rule similar to the minor leagues (AHL, ECHL, or both) where theres a point in the season where the rules flip. Teams start the season as things are right now, with dark and home and white on road (barring any agreements between teams), then after the All Star break it flips to white at home and dark on the road. Then once playoffs kick in, like @spartacat_12 said teams will designate a "home jersey" whether white. dark, or alternate and would stick with it thru the playoffs.

monkeypower Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I'm in favour of darks being worn at home during the season. You should be wearing your colours when you are at a home and the visiting team should be the ones wearing the generic (generic as in all teams have a white jersey) jersey. Some people here say "whites at home are better so you can see the other team's colours" but speaking as someone who's family has season tickets to the Hitmen where the WHL flips halfway through, I don't care about the other team's colours. I'm not there to see Brandon or Swift Current and I'm not missing out on anything by not seeing Red Deer wearing their darks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good compromising solution to those who want to see their team wear white at home and those that want to see dark at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I do enjoy the aesthetics of a hockey uniform, I'm ultimately there to see good hockey be played. I could give a :censored: what the teams are wearing at the end of the day as long as I see some good hockey played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s kinda the point of this board. Visit my store on REDBUBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbj273 Posted April 12, 2019 Share Posted April 12, 2019 Why did the NHL switch away from white jerseys at home? I prefer the white at home for hockey not because of seeing other teams colors, it's moreso that teams white jerseys tend to be the better set to me.
