Bayne 1,021 Posted December 3, 2020 7 hours ago, IceCap said: This is such a bogus statement. Look, I can do it in reverse. "The Stars look vibrant, powerful, and fast in their victory green and silver unis. They used to look drab, washed out, and boring in their black, dark green, and washed out gold." See? I can make one group of colours seem like the opposite of what you said they were! Isn't language fun? And if you're tempted to respond, consider this- this is all subjective. I actually don't really care if you liked the black, hunter green, and old gold stars. I really don't. In certain combos (pre-ASG template) it looked good on them. My problem isn't your preference but your insistence that you're right everyone else is wrong, and that your subjective opinion is The Right One. Discussing hockey sweaters used to be my favourite thing to do here, but a number of people made it a chore, and this Dallas Stars cluster is a prime example of how that happened. You don't care that I liked the black hunter green and gold? You really don't? Oh I thought you would. So you're someone who takes others opinions and gets angry at them. Ok.. Just because I have an opinion and don't decide to qualify every sentence with "hey remember guys it's just my opinion, take it or leave it!" doesn't mean I have this belief that I am right and everyone else who disagrees is wrong lol. I've been around too long to be that delusional. The language thing is correct. You got me. I used adjectives in my sentences. Big deal, it's just my opinion and you can disagree. And btw not everything is subjective. That's what people who don't understand design principles and human perception and psychology say. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Am I off base here? Massively off base, but that's ok. I just want him to stop being an argumentative about his opinion. He can like whatever he wants, and he can argue in favour of it as long as he wants, without being needlessly aggressive about it. 6 hours ago, Bayne said: And btw not everything is subjective.

The sky is blue, water is wet, and you shouldn't stick a fork in an electrical socket. You know what's not objectively true? That the Dallas Stars look worse in their current colour scheme compared to their old colour scheme. So maybe stop acting like it is, eh? 6 hours ago, Bayne said: So you're someone who takes others opinions and gets angry at them. Ok..

I've been around too long to be that delusional. So here's where the mod hat comes on and you can take it or leave it. You need to fix your attitude. NHL sweater discussion on this forum has become a G-ddamn chore in part because of your combative attitude. To be fair you're not alone and we'll get to the others in due time. Right now though? I'm talking to you. You don't need to preface every post with "this is just my opinion" but there's a wide gulf of behavioural options between that and your MO of "being a combative to everyone who disagrees with you." Arguably we mods have allowed you and others to make NHL uniform discussions an unpleasant experience for long enough, and that's over. So again, consider this a mod warning- find a way to make your point without being needlessly combative about it. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean most of my posts aren't 'combative' or 'aggressive' though. Maybe 1 or 2 out of every 10 posts I make is, or comes across that way. I get stubborn about (what I see as, and what are definitely objectively) bad opinions sometimes and I can come across too bullish when that happens. I like strong opinions though, it makes for entertaining debates. But I get it - we can't have that. I'll accept the mod intervention. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That person would likely know what the full design is and probably would've gotten clearance from the higher-ups to answer that question. Besides, the Oilers have a fetish for orange, it really wouldn't shock me if they introduced orange pants. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OT: How awful is it that EA is now offering NHL 94, but as a bundle. If you pre-ordered NHL 21 you got NHL 94 for free. If you buy it now you get it in a bundle. If you bought the game after release and before today, you're still out of luck. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you already have NHL 21, go to the main menu and look at the bottom right where the scrolling tabs usually are. You should eventually see an option to buy NHL 94 Rewind. Click that and it takes you to the store, and you can buy Rewind itself for $10. Pretty sure this only works if you already have an active copy of NHL 21. I think RR uniforms show up once you download the latest roster update too. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sport 13,678 Posted December 3, 2020 I'm finally ready to rank the reverse retro jerseys. I stayed up late for several weeks, did the calculus, computed an algorithm, and based on that came up with a metric that is inarguable truth. Good = honks bad = farts. I will not elaborate further, especially if you ask me to. Bruins - honks Sabres - honks Red Wings - farts Panthers - honks Canadiens - honks Senators - honks Lightning - honks Maple Leafs - farts Hurricanes - honks Blue Jackets - farts Devils - honks Islanders - farts Rangers - farts Flyers - honks Penguins - farts Capitals - honks Blackhawks - farts Avalance - honks Stars - farts Wild - honks Predators - honks Blues - honks Jets - farts Ducks - honks Coyotes - honks Flames - honks Oilers - farts Kings - honks Sharks - honks Canucks - honks Golden Knights - honks 12 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
