Thrashers 3rd

[STL FANATIC]

These are beautiful. There is no drop shadow, and apparently the NHL doesn't care about sleeve numbers, and truth be told, I don't either. I like the lack of symetry. It's real cool. I always think it feels really neat to wear something like that too, with extra something on one arm, usually left.

Here's a Canucks idea I had a while back, and based on the fact that I did it, you might see that I like the Thrashers jersey a lot. I still like this Canucks idea.

It's too weird.  If there is one thing I hate in a jersey, it's assymetry.

This may be worse than the Vancouver V jerseys.  Yike.  The colours are awful, the stripe just ends into oblivion, the whole off-balance thing, the numbers on the back look bush league... holy crap, these are worse than Mooterus, tenfold.

It wouldn't be so bad if both sleeves were dark. Those Canucks unis look pretty good, that red looks better than the old ones ever did

No, I don't mean the early-90s alternates, I mean the 70s "V" jerseys, often held on a pedestal as the Worst Jerseys Ever.

Actually, I meant STL's concepts, I'm not a fan of the V jersey. To truely know how bad it looks, you need to see one in person.

Also, as for the NHL not caring about numbers on sleeves, just take a look at the NHL All-Star unis from the past few years

I still like it and more and more I look at it, I like it.  Sure its unbalanced, but its a clean and un cluttered look, good for Atlanta. Only question is where does the sleeve number go?

Too bad no one in the NHL copied the BU terriors with the "Boston" arch and numerals under it..

[buster04]

dont quote me on thi, but is anyone picking up on the lack of last names on the shirts? is it cause they just are wearing them for the practice session and then auctioning off? Per the article or what?

[CDunn]

I hate #'s on the front of hockey jerseys.  Leave it to football, basketball, and a good many MLB teams.

Brownslax, I noticed the lack of names, too.  but it's an NHL rule that jerseys have to have surnames on them.  Unless...they put the last name down the other arm.  Oh man that would be scary.

[zer0dotcom]

SHHHHHHHH! Don't give them any ideas!

[spyboy1]

Am I only one of few who thinks powder blue is an awesome color???

Yes.

And white numbers with yellow trim on light blue? Stupid, stupid, stupid...

And one dark sleeve and one blank? It looks from the picture Roger posted that some child lost interest and forgot to color in the other sleeve. There just...incomplete.

I fear what they might do with the player names... could it be more white with yellow trim? Could it actually be down the other sleeve ?

Truly a rotten effort from a team whose home and roads I really liked.

Wow... am I the only one who actually likes those jersey?

[NickNickNick]

These might be the coolest jerseys I have ever seen.

Lace up, tho.  Grr to that.  Other than that fact, I really love them.  It's a real curveball jersey, and I love them.

My bad, zer0, I didn't realize what you meant.

Ugh, I jut noticed that the Koho label is dark blue.  Yet another thing to add to how awful these are.  AWFUL.

[rheistad]

the thing i really hate about this jersey is that the more i look at it the more i like it, freaking atlanta i hate you!!!! lol

[Roger Clemente]

the first nhl jersey with true, football style side panels

Actually, Nashville's alternate's, which debuted two years ago and are still being used, are the first, and then came the All-Star jersey from the last two years.  The only difference is that Atlanta's pulls there's down the the striping, whereas Nashville rounds it out off before it reachs the striping.

[shiznit1083]

I think these things are just ok.  I hate the sleeve thing though.  My wish would be that they made the right sleeve on both sides.  Def not worse than mooterus.

[JQK]

It really is a nice jersey. And in that pic of the jersey and it's back you can see that the stripe doesn't just end, and that they have piping on the other sleeve to match the shape and size of the left arm stripe. It is a very well thought out, well designed jersey. I like it.

[fiasco!]

the atlanta jerseys have the sleeve dots that got dissed in my maple leafs concept...i love them.

Well I guess I'm the like-the-new-alternates-everyone-else-hates guy. i love Dallas' and i like these a lot too. the hem striping and powder blue is great, better than the home, and I like the one ssleeve stripe with the "Atlanta". It's creative, and why not for a fledgling team like the Thrashers? Only thing I hate of course is the lace-up collars, but other than that I'd buy one of these. Thumbs up. Second best alternate this year.
