I'll say they lean into that old bee/hornet/yellow jacket thing they used to have. The jersey will be that gross neon pea green color and the hornet will be front and center but enlarged. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan33 Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Whatever they do will likely be sunk by oversized striping, numbers and other unnecessary gimmicks. Using the neon green wouldn't be bad if it was done tastefully. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing they go with some sort of oversized cannon logo, and maybe silver helmets to tie in the Buckeyes connection. Would be great to see Detroit wear a red & white version of the classic Michigan helmet. 1 hour ago, tigerslionspistonshabs said: No one cares about the Blue Jackets. Why is it in Columbus? There really is no pleasing hockey fans. When Chicago got announced as the Winter Classic host everyone complained about them being in an outdoor game again. When a team that's never played in an outdoor game gets to host, people find a way to complain about that too. Columbus has managed pretty consistent attendance & fan support during their history, which is impressive considering how terrible they've been for almost their entire existence. It's a somewhat traditional hockey market, and the horseshoe is one of the most iconic stadiums in college football. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While we have seen hideously large helmet logos in the Stadium Series, I still can't believe no team has used a helmet stripe yet. https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/A8dN5sjvB85b6fYlLhUxz0Wa1ss=/1400x1400/filters:format(jpeg)/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/23233450/1237839123.jpg 1 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.

They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

spartacat_12 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Icethetics has just posted a preview of the Fanatics changes for next year & beyond: Not a whole lot of breaking revelations, but here are some highlights: The practice jersey template is changing. Obviously the 3 stripes along the sides have been removed, and the Fanatics logo is replacing the Adidas one on the chest. The dimples on the shoulders may be gone (this is based on a digital rendering), and the pentagon shaped panel on the collar is gone as well. The standard roundel on the front of the practice jerseys is being tweaked, and will now be stitched instead of heat-pressed. Contrary to what's been said, teams will still have third jerseys next season, there just won't be any new ones. They mention teams like San Jose and Tampa keeping their black thirds around. Aside from Boston returning to their pre-centennial uniforms, there's no mention of any other teams changing their primary look 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That colourway should work on both the home and road uniforms, the logo with the black B and outline and gold spokes isn't bad, just that I prefer a gold b and outline with black spokes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is the final-look jersey template that Fanatics is going to outfit the whole league with, it's a tough sell. Especially with that Nike-esque collar used here. It's a bad downgrade from the Adizero collar. I guarantee this jersey is going to have ghost strings when it arrives, and it's going to look cheap and tacky. Hey, kinda like what Fanatics does to their fan gear! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schlim Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The gradient dyed/sublimated socks are going to be the equivilant of the vertical stripe edge socks. Also, knees are not really a good place for logos. Even the Cleveland Browns realized the visible stitching was a garish idea years ago. The bottom hem also will probably see a few teams drop their bottom stripe, the Flyers new jerseys did that this year. The ribbed breezers don't really seem pleasurable or necessary except for fanatics own branding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
