From the "I have a source department"...

I have a source with the Blues who tells me that the new uniforms include some sort of "vertical piping". My only guess is that it's similar to what the Lake Monsters have. It may be something along those lines.

That's all I know, I swear. ^_^

True but hardly a scoop. John Davidson publicly stated they are vertical months ago.

I guess, but if anyone has ever watched a Rangers game on MSG, they would know that JD is a dumbass.

It seems like the "Dallas" script jersey would be unwise in terms of sales. If someone wanted to buy a replica, he/she would have to get one with a name and number on it or the jersey would look dumb. Considering the outrageous price of the new jerseys, most people will be just getting the nameless, numberless jerseys which will look really bad from the front. Can anyone competent in photoshop, take the number out to see how plain a regular blank replica would look?

See, I think that's exactly why they're doing it: the jersey looks empty and incomplete without a number on the front, so a good percentage of people will be more prone to shell out the extra dough for customization.

Personally, I think the Stars' new look would be about 300% better if "DALLAS" was done in a serifed block font, and if the letters and numbers were 3-layer green-black-gold or white-black-green.

For all the bird de lis haters I think the bird de lis isnt supposed to be a pelican and a fleur de lis I think its just a fleur de lis with a pelicans head. Thats what it looks like to me. Also the flair around the tip of the beak is just flair that fleur de lis have sometimes source I am from NOLA.

Just saw the new 2K8 commercial. The Dallas script is bigger than the image a few posts above. Still can't find any pics anywhere though.

Yep noticed that one too.

It reminds me of DU's hockey sweaters.

I have a source whose friend works at the store where former Stars assistant to the traveling secretary Mark Gregson bought his washer-dryer combo three years ago and he confirmed these jerseys are the real thing, but he says we're confused. The picture shown is of new Stars goalie Dallas Rogers; the front of the jersey won't say Dallas for everyone, it's actually going to say the player's first name. Much better than having the city name on the front, in my opinion.

Yea Dallas' jersey gets the "Worst jersey to get without numbers" (And I usually buy blank replicas, so im certainly not buying dallas' jersey) but that aside i think it looks kinda good, its different, only complaint I have is the lack of green.

That looks like one of those cheap, non-licensed jersey that you can find for $14.37 at Wal-Mart. Except, of course, you'll have to pay the full $119.99 for this one.

exactly, it reminds me of the old NHLPA hockey for SNES before they got the NHL license, so all the players were there but the teams were just called "Detroit" or "Vancouver" and had generic script logos. that was before Dallas though but "Minnesota" had similar jerseys. :D

Terrible. At least Nashville and Florida look (arguably) bad in something that's a new idea. Dallas has managed to look terrible in something not even original.

Are we surprised though? The last few Dallas jerseys have merely been All-Star clones, and this looks like Anaheim's old third, although we haven't seen the bottom stripes yet. Not in a million years did I ever think I'd prefer Dallas's old jerseys to anything, but I do now.

Whoever thought it was a good idea to have the name of the city on the home jerseys are freakin idiots.

it's actually funny how these designers think these jerseys look good.

You might want to address you grievances to:

Mr. Seymour Constantine

2447 W. Parker Drive

Cincinnati, OH

He was the man who actually thought it was a good idea to have the name of the city on home jerseys.

If you find that it's "actually funny" how designers think the jerseys look good, some of them will be appearing at a comedy club in Regina this week. I can't remember the name of it, but I'm sure if you google it, it should pop up.

Thank you for your insightful post, you are truly making this board a dynamic place for the exchanging of ideas.

I am sure I missed something either on this thread or elsewhere, but allow me to ask what may be an obvious question:

In light of the "Dallas STARS" on the white and the "DALLAS" on the dark, is there any chance that they are switching back to white at home. I doubt it, based on this board, but it just seems so silly that the Stars would not flip/flop it.

Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

that's a really good point....road unis normally have the city name on them, don't they?

I thought the NHL WAS switching back to white homes and dark roads for this season or next.
