IMO worst downgrade is the hem pattern- the original is just worlds better than this. This feels like something they came up with before the full time switch to the Kachina. Desperately needs dashes of green/purple/orange. The wordmark doesn’t do anything for me, and will look worse for everyone else without the captain’s C. 1 Quote Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

IMO worst downgrade is the hem pattern- the original is just worlds better than this. The design is an interesting mixture between the Kachina style stripe pattern and the brick & white Glendale era jerseys. The crescent moon C patch is a nice touch, and I don't mind the wordmark (I feel like I enjoy wordmark hockey jerseys more than the average fan). What really makes me nervous is the side panel stripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BurdBranding Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 It’s probably just my eyes messing with me but it almost looks like white stripe detail paired with sand logos. Now I wish the pants were green, or at least the cactus on the pants. These are underwhelming. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This shows another problem with the Coyotes' identity though. What's their main colour? The Rangers are a blue team. The Kings are a black team. The Coyotes are....???? 4 Quote PotD 26/2/12 1/7/15 2020 BASS Spin the Wheel, Make the Deal Regular Season Champion 2021 BASS NFL Pick'em Regular Season Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayGloria Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Wordmark crest just don't work on most hockey jerseys IMO. The star in Arizona feels like it would fit the Wild more than the Coyotes. I also feel like the hem design is fitting, but the designer forgot to fill it in with the paint bucket . Swap out the word mark for just a large crescent moon crest and I might be on board with this color scheme. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nash61 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 C'mon Canucks. It wasn't that hard. Either one of these jerseys would have worked. http://nhluniforms.com/Canucks/Canucks14.png Quote On September 20, 2012 at 0:50 AM, 'CS85 said: It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Wordmark doesn't fit (should be howling coyote) and side stripe might get an illusion of adidas 3 stripes.

I don't think the wordmark they're doing is stellar, either, but at the end of the day the Howling logo is mostly associated with the lowest points in the franchise, aside from one season that was still marred by instability. The organization will probably want to distance themselves from that era as much as possible. Besides, at least they're going all in on doing something unique instead of just :censored:ing with a perfectly good throwback jersey like the Canucks seem to be doing. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately Howling Coyote was designed to works with that color. They could recolor Picasso Coyote as well. Anyway both of them would be better than Minnesota alike wordmark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I find the simplified kachina pattern to be excellent. The original design is certainly better, but this is just an alternate jersey and does a great job of utilizing the signature design element in a minimalist aesthetic. The wordmark is trash, however.

_RH_ Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Again I'd prefer the full color palette (sans black) but just think they could do better with the striping pattern. I'm guessing from TV distance it'll barely look like anything (just solid burgundy). Here's a look at the original and new (top row) and a couple quick doodles (bottom two rows). Right column "fills" neither area, middle column "fills" middle, and left column "fills" outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M4One Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 I was kinda expecting the Coyotes alt to be a little more out there with the cactus being on the pants, something along the lines of the first alternates like the Kings' sash jersey or the Ducks Wild Wing jersey. Instead, they just decided to go the lazy route, using just the outline of their current set and a dumb wordmark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ldconcepts Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Unless we’re talking about a minor change, this would feel completely unnecessary. They could prove me wrong but I’ve yet to see an idea that improves upon their classic design.

Going back to the 90's design would be about the best option if they have to move away from their current set. But if it's "not the same design" as the 1.0, that might rule that option out. Also, you know...maybe not the best idea to launch a rebrand when the team sucks. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spartacat_12 Posted January 16, 2023 Author Share Posted January 16, 2023 The only thing the Flyers need to do is ditch the contrasting nameplates. Everything else is fine. But I'm fully expecting them to come out with a downgraded design, and keep the nameplates unchanged. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMcD29 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 The Flyers could definitely use going back to the darker shade of orange from the 80's and 90s, but if it ain't the 70's look, and it ain't the 80's and 90's look, then I have no idea what direction you can go in without it not looking like a Flyers jersey 1 Quote Twitter: @RyanMcD29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayGloria Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Man I view the Flyers as having one of the classic unique looks in the league. I don't like the sound of this at all. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
