AHL/ECHL/Minor/Junior League Hockey Changes

The Ghost Pirates unveiled their jerseys, which severely lack consistency. The striping across each jersey doesn't match, and the white jersey is brought down by using the roundel version of their logo. As far as smaller issues go, I would've preferred to see a jersey with the SAV logo on the front. The inclusion of the pirate flag logo on the lime jersey is confusing considering that it wasn't included in their original (and somewhat extensive) logo reveal. Despite the set's many issues, the black jersey is well done, and it would be better if the other two jerseys had followed its lead.

Maybe I missed it but it looks like the Kansas City Mavericks and the Norfolk Admirals are going with new looks this year

The Mavericks made the change last season. 

 

The last Admirals change I could find was in 2017, but that image above is definitely newer than what was introduced in 2017.

I disagree. Even though each jersey is different from one another, they all look good on their own. The logos and color palette are both unique enough to where the jerseys all look cohesive even with three different designs. That's a really good indicator of a rock solid brand.

 

The entire look is very well-made, if you ask me. The jerseys are no exception.

The Wranglers' uniforms look spectacular on the ice. Their matchup against the Colorado Eagles last weekend looked fantastic.

The Wranglers look exceptional, but I'm still really underwhelmed by the Eagles' uniforms. I think their look from the ECHL is far better;

I agree, but the current jerseys aren't all that bad imo. Especially when they looked like this 5-ish years ago:

If I had my way, the Eagles would still be wearing their inaugural "clawmark" jerseys.

The Eagles need to take the Avs' Reverse Retro jerseys. Similar to the Kraken/Firebirds, the template is similar, but the colours are unique.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

No, I'd disagree there. I find teams that just use the same jersey as their parent club in different colors really uninspired, visually; the Eagles shouldn't just look like a palette-swapped Avs.

I’d be totally fine with the Eagles using the Avs’ RR as a base for a new jersey. For the first 5-10 years of their existence, every jersey they wore was a modified Avs jersey with different waist striping.

Would using the RR be the most creative jersey choice? No, but it also wouldn’t be off-brand for the Eagles.

I’ve felt the same way too! Those uniforms were nearly perfect for them.

If you want to kill some time, the voting for the fan designed WHL and OHL jersey contest opened today. The winning jersey for each team will be worn at some point during the season.

Very cool contest. Although I must have horrible taste because it seems that every one I voted for was not leading the race.

Recently purchased NHL23 and noticed on the game that the Royals no longer have their Tampa Bay Lightning template jerseys as their home and roads any more and now have their black and white alternates as the new home and road.

 

For reference:

New home and road:

I think they are using Old white jersey with the Black in real life.
