Stevenet Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 I was just watching Global Vancouver and there was a commercial saying that they will be televising the Canucks jersey unveiling live on Wednesday at Noon Pacific.For those of you with Bell ExpressVu, that's channel 252.

refuse Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 why is it that most negative comments about the ottawa designs are about it being plain and boring, yet designs like the red wings are looked at in a much more favorable light?? What isn't plain and boring about those jerseys?? They are just red with a white stripe on the sleeve and at the waist for home, opposite colours for the road.WOW!!OH MY GOD!!! WHAT BRILLIANCE!!!Its because theyre traditional. Tradition cant be boring it seems. Its classy to maintain that tradition keeping it the way it has always been but to me theyre a bit boring.

alex20 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 The Oilers FINALLY have something on their website about the new jersey. However it only has a pre-order form and says that they will be available Sept. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 From the back of the new Tampa jerseys there is almost no colour visible except the black/white of the body. Not a fan of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coast2CoastAM2006 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 im speechless, i really am.2 years! 2 years to come up with this?! nevermind it looks quasi-allstar template, but its a logistical nightmare. The blue is far too dark to be used next to black. I had to strain to see the blue. When i look at it, it looks like they are wearing all black instead of a splash of blue. Generally im not a fan of the arbitrary use of piping, but in this case silver piping would help to seperate the blue from the black. no hemline stripes and front numbers on the away alone put this at an automatic downgrade. The logo is good but seems visually off balance. I much rather put the lightning on the bottom right of the logo for visual balance, right now it looks off. Otherwise, its a pretty cool logo.Congradulations Tampa, you join the elite ranks of the Panthers, Predators, Islanders, Sabres, Senators, and Capitals in being Patsoxed! I give the designs a C-Grades thus far:Anaheim: B (the over simplified logo keeps them from having a full A)Atlanta: N/ABoston: A+Buffalo: FCalgary: N/ACarolina: BChicago: N/AColorado: N/AColumbus: A+Dallas: N/ADetroit: A+ Edmonton: N/AFlorida: D-Los Angeles: DMinnesota: N/AMontreal: N/ANashville: FNew Jersey: N/ANew York I: FNew York R: A+Ottawa: C- (the only reason i give them high marks is because their logos are awsome, other wise it would be near the F's)Philadelphia: N/APhoenix:N/APittsburgh:N/ASt. Louis: N/ASan Jose: N/A (logo is promising, i just hope the jerseys give them high marks)Tampa: D- (not even the logo could give them a passing grade.

WHAT BRILLIANCE!!!heres the difference, Detroit has a history with their jerseys, plain as they may be. however Ottawa doesn't, they are a relatively new team compared with the wings and really don't have much history associated with their stuff, so they have a little more freedom to be more liberal with thier designs but nothing wild and crazy. THe sens set isn't the worst, its just they can be alot better. The wings, I wouldn't mind seeing them change up their stuff as there is alot of room for modernization, but given whats already been released, they might be better off not even concieving the idea.

Its classy to maintain that tradition keeping it the way it has always been but to me theyre a bit boring.I think Detroit gets a lot of praise for having a simple, but not barren look. If Detroit eliminated the hem stripe, their uniforms would probably look just as bland as Ottawa's and TB's do. Detroit's jersey, while simple with its solid block stripes, does incorporate two of the tradional elements of a hockey jersey, a hem stripe and mid arm stripes. These colour blocks are, IMO, going to be more visible than the under arm colour blocks the TB/OTT template uses, which are going to be largely hidden when watching a game. Players arms and gloves are going to largely conceal those colour blocks, leading to impression of a monochrome jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReginaCanuck Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 So, the main problem with the old Lightning jerseys was the lack of blue. With this update they've added more blue, but they didn't separate it from the black, and they bleed together. As Pantone said, the blue is fairly dark, so it shouldn't be touching the black.

capn89 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 It's sad that nearly every jersey that has come out so far is incredibly anti-heterosexual. I don't have any problem with new, but some of these designs (if you can call them "designs") are just atrocious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

habsfan1 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 More sucky jerseys. A black jersey with no hem stripe + black pants and probably black socks = crap. just a big black blob designwise.Agreed, this jersey needs a bottom hemline more than many other teams. Way too much empty space with the design they made. Pathetic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
