Toronto's only starts at 58-59, the Rangers' jerseys only start at 1976 , Detroit only starts at '86 and Chicago's only starts at 1996. Hell, a few of the defunct teams straight-up just don't have uniforms listed on this site, like the Tigers, Pirates or Maroons. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, not to mention inconsistencies in image size and the templates used. This site is decent, but it's far from complete and it doesn't come close to the scope of what NHLuniforms did: Keeping track of the various manufacturer's tags throughout the 80s and 90s, as well as all the anniversary, memorial, and All-Star Game patches. Hopefully that site gets up and running again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttep Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Canes are wearing white helmets tonight - my guess is it's because they are playing in Calgary later on this road trip, where they can't wear red helmets, so they decided to just bring white.

M4One Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 I don't know how it's possible for Fanatics to get it so wrong. Found at my local Canadian Tire. There were at least three. They were high up in the air, so I couldn't tell, but I'm guessing the whole rack is like that. All selling for $200. For those that can't see, there's a silver outline on the numbers and NOB. At least, they spelled his name correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So from a what’s-on-the-ice stand point, I less worried about Fanatics. But of course buying any new jerseys, or any other retail item from them is going to be awful. 22 hours ago, Sodboy13 said: Eric Bodamer, known around here when you and I were mere tots as ebod39, posted last week that he was making the jump. Brian Gundell, who also had frequented on the forums many moons ago is also at Fanatics NHL division. He had worked on the Coachella Valley Firebirds identity in the AHL, which gives you a look at some of his work. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a Lightning jersey and it looks similar. I think it's to "replicate" the white stitching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan33 Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Agency looks horrible with an outline, especially if said outline is indistinguishable at a distance of more than a few feet... And they didn't even use the same silver as the logo... Anyone know if there will still be Authentics*? *with the fight strap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing we'll see an even bigger gap in quality between the authentics & the replicas though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calgary will be wearing black as it is one of their previously scheduled Blasty games. Carolina would have known that before departing on the road so maybe they just decided to go white for white’s sake on this trip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
