Chewbacca Posted February 18 Author Share Posted February 18 After seeing the Flyers/Devils Stadium Series game, I did not like either uniform. I find it interesting that years ago the NHL would make teams such as the Flames switch to white letters for player names after initially planning on black letters yet New Jersey gets the ok to have completely illegible letters on their jersey tonight. I think it’s too close to their regular home jersey but made worse without any white. I like the logo. That design flipped in black would be a big improvement over the Jersey jersey if they do another third jersey anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttep Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Not the biggest fan of this Heritage Classic uniform matchup indoors. All the "vintage white" looks too dark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttep Posted February 26 Share Posted February 26 The Canes actually chose to wear white helmets with their white jerseys in this game against the Sabres when they didn't have to -- I'm honestly shocked (they're on a 2 game road trip, their other opponent is the Blue Jackets, who don't have a red helmet). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttep Posted February 29 Share Posted February 29 Apparently the Kraken wore their Winter Classic uniforms again last Saturday against the Wild (the same night the Flames and Oilers reprised their Heritage Classic matchup). It did include the unwelcome addition of their ad patch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 It's been 4 seasons and I still absolutely loathe the Avalanche in blue equipment. Championship or not, it still looks awful. The original uniforms were designed for Blue to be the secondary colour and for blue and burgundy to never touch... Yet this idiotic decision breaks both of those rules. It looks the worst at home where the blue completely overpowers the burgundy base. It's time for the Avalanche to bring back the uniforms that hoisted the cup in 2001... The colours were properly balanced, the numbers were more legible, the mountain striping looked better and the footprint shoulder patches actually matched the art style of the primary logo. Everything about that set is superior to the dogs dinner they have now. Bring back the original set, keep the navy alternate and don't change anything again. 1 2 1 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't love the blue either at least with the current color balancing of the rest of the uniform. But, I also don't think black is the answer either. They don't need a complete overhaul. Just some tweaks (especially on the road set) to make the blue equipment work. The blue pants just look strange with the road set. They look just as out of place as black equipment would. I kind of feel like they need to decide if they want to be primarily an icy blue team or primarily a maroon team. It seems like both colors are fighting each other for supremacy a bit.

Blue equipment was the best move the team has done since going back to the mountain design. The font, lack of blue stripe on the road jersey and the boring C on the shoulders are what need to be fixed. At least now the striping and socks match on the home uni 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue might've been the secondary colour on the burgundy jerseys, but not the white jerseys. They had burgundy sleeves, black numbers/names, and black pants. Blue was basically used equally with silver on the white uniform, while the burgundy used hardly any silver altogether. It was clear that they were using one too many colours, and needed to decide between silver & black. The current set could use some tweaks, but I wouldn't say it looks awful. As mentioned above, adding a blue stripe along the sleeves of the road jersey would go a long way, as would more consistency with the numbers. Currently they use white numbers outlined in silver on the back of the burgundy jersey, but use white numbers outlined in blue on the burgundy sleeves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tBBP Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 The big issue with the Avalanche involves the chroma of their colors. If you grayscale them, you'll barely notice a difference. That's why they seem to fight against one another. I've seen many concept this idea out, but essentially, the best move for the Avs is to darken the shade of one of those colors and brighten the tone or tint or the other, to create a little more separation. Take a look at this: Right now the Avs colors are closer to the blue and burgundy swatches second and third from the right. I think either a darker red (okay, burgundy) and light blue or a dark blue (like that navy, though I know some wouldn't care for yet another navy team) and even the burgundy next to that navy, or even better, the burgundy all the way to the left, would help improve the appearance of their colorway (especially if they choose to continue to incorporate the silver/gray). 2 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...

Blue completely overpowers their main colour at home and on the road, you have burgundy and blue touching, which as their Edge disasters proved, looks awful. The blue numbers on the road, outlined in burgundy look terrible too. The whole set is just a mess. Every change they've made since 1996 has been a downgrade including darkening the burgundy. Give me the Forsberg, Roy, Sakic look any day of the week. There was nothing wrong with that set until Reebok destroyed it and Adidas forgot to bring back the double mountain stripes when attempting to fix it.

Seeing this side by side, you are right on the money about the double mountain stripe. Something about that really hammers home the mountain idea. And with that black stripe, the black equipment works. I was on the fence on the equipment color change, but you may have just won me over with this post with caveat that the jerseys also revert back to the original design. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really aren't using black anymore. Yes it's used sparingly in the logos, but it's no different than how Chicago uses green & yellow. With the pre-Edge set, the colour balances were different between the two main jerseys. The dark jersey was burgundy/blue/black/white, while the light jersey was white/burgundy/silver/blue. The black equipment made some sense with the burgundy jersey, but looked out of place with the white jersey (especially if you saw one without numbers). It's similar to how the Golden Knights improved their road uniform by switching the black pants to grey. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikWings Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Avs should switch to maroon helmets at home. And the road jerseys need more blue on the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
