The fake digitally placed ads on the ice and plexiglass bother me more, but yea also stinks about the helmets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mingjai Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 I think I can make my peace with helmet ads if they are in team colors and they prevent ads ending up on jerseys. But I guess parades of horribles don't work that way. Visit my store on REDBUBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defending corporations shoving ads down your throat in any capacity is absolutely something to be embarrassed about Just now, Gothamite said: [Citation Needed] There was no uproar after like a week once the nike ads on the jersey were announced lol. The Yankees completely ruined the most iconic uniform in baseball, maybe even in sports, and there was zero pushback. People fawn over the Brewers and Padres redesigns and roll their eyes if you bring up the fact that there's a huge clashing advertisement right up front. Jersey sales sure as hell didn't dip. People on here complaining and some reddit threads from 2 years ago don't equate to any relevant opposition to MLB ruining their uniform aesthetics. The vast majority of MLB fans probably didn't even notice the addition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFirestormToPurify Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Not bad at all. The teal names and numbers are kinda hard to see though. Maybe white outlined in teal and/or black would look better? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSU151 Posted March 12, 2021 Share Posted March 12, 2021 Yeah I watched part of a game with the Sharks in their RRs...the gray and teal just seemed too dark and seemed hard to read. I think they darkened the teal in 2007, and used the current shade on these...but they should have used the brighter 90s teal. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

Anyone who is surprised that this isn’t going to be just a “one year experiment” really should take a look at that ocean front listing I’m offering up for sale in Montana.

The OG teal was a little too light and blue-ish imo but the second shade of teal they used from the late 90s to just before the awful Edge redesign was perfect. The new teal is a little too dark and green-ish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it wasn't, I'm going to figure they didn't want it. Lou is there for one reason only, to win a Cup. I remember when he was running the Devils, he always said the Devils jerseys are staying the same. He fought for a while before he gave in to the Heritage uniform and stadium series. So, I agree with you tp49, if Malkin and Ledecky wanted to bring back the Fisherman for RR, they would have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The color popped more when they wore them on the road in Minny. The arena/lighting/presentation really helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
