monkeypower Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 23 minutes ago, Ridleylash said: Honestly, I think the Canes going black at home is fine; there's a lot more teams that go red at home (Calgary, Chicago, Detroit, Florida, New Jersey, Montréal, Washington) than black at home (which is really just LA and Ottawa). Making themselves more distinct from the crowd is a good branding decision. LA and Ottawa... and Anaheim, Arizona, Boston and Pittsburgh. Carolina is the swing vote here now making it 7-7 in terms of red vs black from 8-6 in favour of red. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Krabs Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 What about the logo? Is the alternate stick and flags logo going to be the primary and the primary storm logo getting phased out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carolina looks like a cheap knockoff of Ottawa. I hate this move for the hurricanes. Their red sweater is so much better. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepis21 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Hurricanes are you drunk? Their red sweater was far superior than black. Btw if they want to use black at home maybe should try match it with red pants? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Carolina should've never chosen red and black as their colors from Day 1. I don't know why they did (something about NC State?) but they had an opportunity to be different and create a standout identity. The color diversity in the NHL is too small. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed but at the same time, even though they were red and black, they didn't look like any other red and black team because of the red gear 11 minutes ago, WSU151 said: The other two seem interesting at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadSeed84 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Hopefully its their old black jersey's with an orange yoke & arms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwing64 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 And there you have it; "more orange in Anaheim". A white and orange version of the classic Mighty Ducks jersey seems like a safe bet. I'm guessing we'll see a repeat of the Dallas '99 jersey but in black and green this time. Interesting that they went with the shoulder patch here though. 90's Jets jersey in their modern colours should look nice. 1 Quote PotD: 24/08/2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't have any awareness or common sense and they don't care what their fans want. Yes, I'm mad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
