spartacat_12 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 It might be a little early for a '22-'23 season thread, but Bill Foley recently confirmed that the Knights will be getting a new jersey for next year. https://vegashockeynow.com/2022/01/15/bill-foley-confirms-golden-knights-to-get-new-third-jerseys-soon/ According to Foley, “We do have a new jersey coming. We do. I don’t have one handy but we sent it back for a couple of modifications but it’s a good one and you’re gonna like it." The gold alternate has only been around for 2 seasons, so I'd be surprised if it gets replaced already. This most likely is going to be part of the Reverse Retro 2.0 program. I'd expect a black jersey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chcarlson23 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 That or the gold alternate becomes the primary, and they ditch the grey jersey… Quote "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

officeglenn Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 Split this off into its own thread. Yeah, it might feel early, but it's legit 2022-23 news so I don't see why we shouldn't. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it’s most likely the new Reverse Retro line I wonder how many teams will keep the same reverse retro, and how many will have new ones… Quote "And those who know Your Name put their trust in You, for You, O Lord, have not forsaken those who seek You."

It seems like it'd be a divisive move though. People either love or hate them. For the RR, I'm sure the league is going to force teams to come up with something new, even if it's just a recoloured version of the old ones (i.e. burgundy Nordiques/Avs, green Wild Stars, white Peyote Coyote).

Honestly, I could see a second round doing more of what Vegas did and using other historical teams from the team's market as references for a design. It'd be a fun spin on the concept of "Reverse Retro" by taking it to it's literal extreme; new jerseys based on retro teams rather than just inverting retro jerseys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps...but the NHL is clearly aware that 80s/90s designs are in peak demand. 1 Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

seasaltvanilla Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 That's essentially what Minnesota did with the Winter Classic jerseys. Personally I'd be a big fan if they busted out a Minnesota Fighting Saints RR: 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayGloria Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 I want this jersey in current Blues colors OR this jersey with the same colors, but the eagle is replaced with a blue note. I'm picturing the ST LOUIS text in a navy, yellow, royal pattern instead of red, white, red. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Louis should go with a yellow jersey for the next RR. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeypower Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 I got kind of flamed for my take a while back in the 21-22 thread (at least I think it was that thread) for not being too super hot about a second go-around at the Reverse Retros because I was questioning where some teams would be able to go with a second jersey that would still fit under the "Reverse Retro" banner. I'm still interested in what will come of RR 2.0, but my hot take is that I think it'll be worse/less well received for the majority of teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowld Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Might actually be legit. That logo is a cleaned up version of what they used to use and not just a photoshop.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it looks like the mockup has the horn shading reversed. Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.
