WSU151 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Not as good as the Caps' RR 1.0 (the red jersey with the blue eagle had great contrast). I kind of wonder what the logo would look like with blue wings on this black jersey with the blue sash....at any rate, this black jersey just reiterates what a great jersey the original blue jersey was. May have been better with a bronze and blue collar. The ad is obnoxious. 1 Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

More than familiar--at the time it was actually one of my favorite jerseys, specifically because of that logo. I don't know that I'd say that if it came out today, but from a technical and execution standpoint, the Mooterus logo itself is far better crafted than that...whatever that's supposed to be on Nashville's RR above. (I know it's supposed to be a saber-toothed tiger or something to that effect, but...still.)

They look especially bad with the third jersey And while we're discussing hockey aesthetics, not that I've ever really paid it close mind before, but the more I look at this set, the more I'm inclined to declare this among--maybe even arguably as--the very best uniforms in the league. I know the sleeve number treatment may not be everyone's cup of tea but it's their thing, it works--but that orange and white just pop off that black so vividly, so simply. Just great to look at. 1 1 1 Quote *Disclaimer: I am not an authoritative expert on stuff...I just do a lot of reading and research and keep in close connect with a bunch of people who are authoritative experts on stuff. || dribbble || Behance || Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spartacat_12 Posted October 19, 2022 Author Share Posted October 19, 2022 Well the Sens rumours might not have been right. The teaser they just posted shows the number font from the 3D logo jerseys. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have mixed thoughts about this! A white orange and gold Mighty Ducks jersey is a concept that's been done a hundred times and now seeing this exact idea brought to life feels predictable - which I guess is inevitable when it's a simple colour swap of the two eras. The one part I kind of hate is the gold stripe touching the orange - and I get why they did it that way (silver/gold, jade/orange swap) but those two colours should never touch. Looks like it might be metallic gold instead of beige, so hopefully they won't clash too much. Nitpicking aside I'm obviously happy to see a version of the classic look return, even though I would have preferred the rumoured third recolour. But mostly happy that they'll have at least one white jersey that isn't an ugly mess. 2 Quote PotD: 24/08/2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Admiral Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 4 hours ago, GriffinM6 said: Completely disagree. The orange sticks out like a sore thumb. The black and silver are neutral and work very well. I totally understand that. Neutral is good, and silver to match the Stanley Cup, the enduring symbol of the NHL, is also good. Then again, no league logo can be truly neutral -- the NHL shield didn't feel that way when the Kings won two in three. I like that the orange sticks out, whether on its own or compared with other league logos. The charm of the NHL has always been that it's different. 4 Quote ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard disagree here. Some teams get it right the first time, others like the Flyers improve upon their original jerseys after a few years (the 80s, 90s, pre-Edge set) The contrasting nameplate will never not suck The hollow numbers on the alt and hollow captain letter on the away are just as dumb as gimmicky as the nameplate And lastly, that shade of orange is brutal So close yet so far, for me. They should just go back stitch for stitch to the Lindros era set.

BadSeed84 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Trash music in those teaser videos. Sometimes the NHL's marketing is just odd to me and seems like such a stretch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky_Roby Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Y'know, I was skeptical of the program at first, but I'm actually going to miss this Reverse Retro stuff when it's done (assuming this is the last round of it). It's been fun to see the fan designs and guess how teams would look back on the history with a twist, and since all the clubs take part, fans everywhere - no matter your team - can get excited. Sure, it's a money grab, but unlike the ads on the boards and jerseys, this one is actually, legitimately, just fun. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to pick on you directly here, but it always makes me chuckle when people accuse businesses of a cash grab.

It's a fast, hard hitting sport, you need hard rock, metal or hell, even EDM or techno, but something fast and energetic 3 1 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
