That can't be the case, because Vegas has already revealed their gold 3rd jersey and we've seen what their red Reverse Retro looks like. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Clemente 196 Posted October 27, 2020 Some teams probably had third jerseys planned for release this offseason, regardless of everything getting delayed by Covid. It's possible the Reverse Retros weren't meant to be unveiled until close to the start of the season, or a ways into it. (Similar to how there would always be one or two teams that never unveiled their's until US Thanksgiving.) This Stars jersey coming out tomorrow is likely a new third jersey. A Reverse Retro of their's is likely coming much later. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Conrad. 2,895 Posted October 27, 2020 can't quite tell if those are B&W images of black/green-only details or if those details are actually white. looks like a multiple-line design detail will be somewhere, but not sure where. intriguing. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dannykraft 524 Posted October 27, 2020 I saw on twitter a Dallas reporter confirmed it was a third jersey. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looks like black numbers outlined in green (assuming the lighter color in the vid is green) on a black jersey. Looks like the logo (flipped on it side, shown at :07-:08) will be just black and green as well 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScubaSteve 992 Posted October 27, 2020 The Reverse Retro campaign hasn't even been officially announced yet, has it? All just leaks. So it would make sense that Dallas' announcement this early would be about a third jersey and not part of that 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PlayGloria 257 Posted October 27, 2020 Another black jersey huh? Attention major sports leagues: I am really really bored with the black stealthy alternate uniforms. It would be great if you would just stop. Thank you. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the next logical jump. 8 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Roger Clemente 196 Posted October 27, 2020 Based on the new teaser video, it looks like they only perforated sections of the numbers, to give the illusion to appear beveled with the white or silver layer under it bleeding through. This is made more evident by the brief glimpse if the main logo itself, with the perforations pretty much lining up with where the bevels are in the logo. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No one is forcing them to churn out a black alt. But it feels like they are just following suit with all of the other black sweaters in the NHL now. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I mean, black was the main color of their home jersey until 1999, was co-dominant on the star cuts, then came back to dominance from 2007 to 2013. It's been the dominant color for roughly half of the team's existence in Dallas. Hell, green is just an outline on their logo; it's dominantly black and white. It's not like this is friggin' BFBS, black has been dominant on Dallas jerseys before. What's the problem with them having a black alt when they have a green jersey now? Especially since the amount of teams using black as a primary color on their normal set is minimal nowadays (really just the Sens, Pens and Kings). Black jerseys sell, so obviously they'll want to have a jersey that sells well to help recoup losses. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We've seen this song and dance from multiple teams now in multiple leagues. Plus, there is a reason they steered away from the black-dominant jerseys of the past. They are boring and dull. And I fully expect this to be either underwhelming or tacky as well. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the point to use alternate colours. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NFL teams only play 16 games, and several have a 4 jersey rotation. Yes, the NBA takes it WAY TOO FAR, but I doubt the NHL is going to accidentally do that. They didn't even allow the Flames to go full retro during the playoffs 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
