And this brings up another point concerning color theory: certain colors work more effectively in limited doses. Yeah, they're the Golden Knights (only because the US Army wouldn't allow Bill Foley to use Black Knights; otherwise we're not having this discussion), but the original design of those sweaters served to highlight the gold in a way that helped it stand out against the darker gray and black. (For what its worth their gray sweaters are one of my favorites in the league.) Now that's been shoved to the side for MOAR GOLD and it just doesn't look right for a full-time look. That said, I also agree that the white parts of the "gold" jersey should probably be black, as well. 1 hour ago, spartacat_12 said: On another note, the Coyotes centre ice design has been revealed, and like it had been reported it features both their logo & the Sun Devils pitchfork.

It's actually named after the Mullett family, a longtime and important contributor to ASU...but apparently, the team is going to lean into the hairstyle joke, too; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordiks_19 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Anyone knows why the Oilers and Sharks wore their unis from last year after revealing new uniforms for the upcoming season ? Did they want the big guys to be the first ones to wear them in an actual game ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the real one better, personally. Though neither of them are really that bad. Neither are really that bad but neither are really that good.

It's nice that the number 1 hockey franchise in Arizona is sharing their building with the Coyotes. The Mullett Arena font, the seats, the guardrails, and everything are all in Sun Devils maroon and yellow colors. From the several Google pictures on the new facility, that's gonna be the building's look. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their inaugural set was perfect, they could've went 20 years without touching it, and even had a fine alternate in the gold. But nope, can't have that. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, it's kinda neat and a step up from their previous logo, which was no logo at all. It's strange that the official team shop has such a makeshift looking website. For a while I didn't realize it was actually run by the team, since they don't even use Senators/Sens anywhere in the name. It's not a bad wordmark. It reminds me of the script the Ottawa Lynx used to use on their road jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I also agree that the white parts of the "gold" jersey should probably be black, as well. I don’t think the Army wanted them to use Golden Knights either, as that is the name of the Army’s premier parachute demonstration team (Army’s equivalent of the USAF Thunderbirds or USN Blue Angels). And Black Knights of course is the nickname of West Point’s sports teams. On the gold question, I don’t mind teams wearing athletic gold jerseys or helmets full time. I’m a Golden Gopher fan, and while I prefer the hockey team in gold jerseys, I also appreciate, to your point, that by using maroon jerseys, the gold jerseys seem more special. I like the Bruins in gold as well, and wouldn’t even mind if they switched to gold full-time if they based it on their 2010 Winter Classic jerseys (not that they ever would). But Boston and Minnesota’s athletic gold (and Michigan’s maize) look good as hockey jerseys. In VGK’s case, I just don’t like their particular gold for hockey jerseys. It’s not a good shade for a jersey, let alone a full-time jersey. Quote Visit my store on REDBUBBLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At regular prices, nobody is buying a jersey with an ad. If it were $50 or more off and I knew I could take the patch off, SOLD. I'm not going to lie. And, I bet there's a lot more people who would do the same, including some people on this board. They might not admit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridleylash Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 20 minutes ago, pepis21 said: Relocation incoming? To a lakeside property by Tempe Town Lake, sure. But it's been known since the beginning that rooming with ASU in Mullett was always a temporary measure to get the team out of Glendale and not a permanent solution, and there's no indications that negotiations between the team and Tempe have fallen apart for the actual arena. Tempe wants a pro sports team in their city, they want a tenant to develop the compost yard into something that doesn't constantly set itself on fire, and the Coyotes not only provide both but also have ASU's backing, who basically run the city. There's no incentive for them to shut down the deal as it stands right now. Quite frankly, the best time for that to happen would've been the council vote. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The metallic gold jersey works as a 3rd to complement the Golden Knights' name but the steel grey works best with the gold used as a secondary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you're saying here, but I think comparing the Gophers to the Knights is an apples-to-oranges thing or, rather, a yellow-to-gold thing. Maybe this is subjective, but I've never really thought of the Gophers' color as gold. It's a darker shade of yellow, which is much more palatable as a primary color than what Vegas is using, which compares more favorably to the curtains my mother chose for our house in the '70s. In fact, it might be the same fabric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
