RyanMcD29 Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I have absolutely no idea why, but watching that Avalanche game with the reverse retros the other night gave a Thrashers feel to it. Maybe it was because of seeing blue/red/yellow together combined with the Avs number font sort of looking like the Thrashers' number font 2 Quote Twitter: @RyanMcD29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
officeglenn Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 As noted, the Flames broke out the Blasty thirds last night against Florida. Also worth noting that they have black pants shells with striping that matches the pedestal Reverse Retros. Smart move to have one shell that works with both alternates. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s differences of course, but the vibe is very much the same. I agree that it must be the way the color scheme is distributed, and the “pointy” number fonts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wore that pant with RR1 since that's the pant when Blasty debuted in 1998 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TenaciousG Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Blasty would look so good on a red sweater, but I get why they wanted an alternate color. 2 Quote My teamsNCAA: Washington StateMLB: Seattle MarinersNFL: Seattle SeahawksNBA: Portland TrailblazersEPL: Liverpool FCMLS: Seattle Sounders FCNHL: Pittsburgh Penguins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 The touch of white on the pants shows how badly the jersey needs some white piping. It's not bad as-is, but another white stroke would perfect it. 1 Quote "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kramerica Industries Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 I don't know if this is the first time Ottawa's wearing their RR's, but I'm deeply unimpressed. I just thought my eyes were playing tricks on me with thinking these were their current black sweaters but, like, maybe they got tweaked over the offseason and I just missed an announcement. Apparently they're a "stealth" version of these? They could've done much better than just replacing the white areas with red and leaving the black stripe completely untouched (not to mention leaving the 2D logo instead of the 3D). Instead, it looks like a Walmart knockoff of their main set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRealPepman Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 This logo, man. I can't believe the Flames didn't put red in the middle of yellow and white. It would have looked nice if the numbers have the same outline pattern. But it doesn't. Can't believe my favourite team capitalized on a manufacturing booboo LOL. And they kept the logos like that until the black pants became history in 2020. Of course, they're using that again on the new Pedestal pants to complement the jersey.

All they really had to do was swap the red & black on ^ those jerseys. It feels like they were afraid to put the 'Senagoth' logo on the chest, so they went with a half-measure by putting it on the shoulders. 13 hours ago, habsfan1 said: Also, I miss the updated 3D Centurion.

I'm fine with seeing the original 3D logo back for the purposes of the Reverse Retro, but it really doesn't bring much to the table besides nostalgia. The updated 3D was also only abandoned 2 years ago, so not exactly retro. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think may have been a late change...there's a seller on eBay selling 22-23 RR InGlasco pucks, which feature the front crest/jersey design for the other 31 teams, but for the Sens the Senagoth logo is on the puck with the red swoops.

Hmm, interesting. If that's the case it's funny that Ottawa is 2 for 2 on making last minute changes to their RRs after merchandise has already been released. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridleylash Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 The Sens' RR looks deeply unimpressive; it's the kind of tat you'd see people wearing in Chel because they think it makes them look cool. I still maintain they should've gone with either a red or white version of this if they wanted to homage the 2000's; 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DTConcepts Posted December 2, 2022 Share Posted December 2, 2022 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think the Pens' WC jersey is the first to use a squared version of the vintage-style shoulder yoke introduced by the Stars a few years ago. Excited to see what these look like with the full uniform. Quote "You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
