Colinium Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Good Day;I got to take a Gander at a Reebok 2006 Catalogue last night, which i assume is for this upcoming season, with all these TOP SECRET changes in the works. It featured a written description of the jerseys materials and what not, as well as a graphic of an All Star looking jersey, featuring both Conferences. Here's some of the Highlights: 1. The little blurb made mention of 'Stretchy, Lightweight, Dry and Breathable etc etc' Fabric, so my guess is they will be form fitting, maybe even more so than the Nike Swift Jerseys. 2. The Graphic Showed that an NHL crest will be sewn into the bottom of the collar, ala the NFL. The style of the jersey was alot like the template they used for the CFL Reebok did: The Eastern conference ( or West...which ever one uses red) which was what they used as an example, looked pretty much like the Stampeders White Jersey. I hope and pray they dont cut one template for all teams though. 3. In the Catalogue, they always show the list of teams available, with their Logos, as did this one, but in the place of the Ducks and Sabres, was a TBD ( to be determined ) which we know are changing anyway. INTERESTINGLY that was also a TBD for Capitals and Bruins? Are there changes in store for those teams too? Hmmm...Thats all i got for now!COLIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inatimate Object Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I dont know about the Bruins, but anything that would result in the retirement of those Winnie The Pooh alts is welcome by me. In 03-04 they wore the vintage jerseys for a few games, perhaps they are following the Sabres lead and are going back to the jerseys from the early 70s. I'm not a Bruins fan but I think that would look good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STL FANATIC Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Chris has already said he's hearing rumors of these changes being withdrawn.That's not to say this is faulty information, but rather that it may be outdated if the NHL recently decided to scrap the plans.The one I wanna believe is that the NHL is scrapping the plans, so I'm gonna, lol.

gosioux76 Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 The one I wanna believe is that the NHL is scrapping the plans, so I'm gonna, lol. I, for one, at least want to see what they come up with before anything is scrapped. I'm no hockey traditionalist, so I'm open to at least evaluating change before making conclusions.

Roger Clemente Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 If they change the jerseys for every team in the league, doesn't that give the athletic edge to....nobody?--Roger "Time?" Clemente.

Hopefully the swifties will be sent to the desktop recycling bin and be deleted to be never ever seen again. Spoilers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive also heard rumors of that from a few other sources that i feel are reliable, other than Chris.
