Bmac Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Watching the NHL Draft, I have noticed several things regarding uniforms or logos. So here is the place to discuss it. Islanders have the "new" jersey for next year- the 3rd jersey from last year.Panthers using the "Panther breaking hockey stick" logo on everything.Oilers used 3rd jersey from last year.

Shane Does Art Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 I saw quite a few teams with the white jerseys given out. I'm pretty sure it's just the team's choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon_Matrix Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 The Oilers gave out their alternate jersey. Seems to be in line with them going back to orange and blue full time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DelayedPenalty Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 Minnesota uses their road sweater with a real logo on it instead of their stupid "retro" home sweater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmac Posted June 27, 2009 Author Share Posted June 27, 2009 Minnesota uses their road sweater with a real logo on it instead of their stupid "retro" home sweater.I mentioned that earlier but then erased it because quite a few teams are using their white jerseys. The Wild used their white jersey when they intoduced their new GM and coach as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 So now everybody is using a retro-themed home jersey that comes with a modern white jersey?? It feels like the 80s again and that's not always a good thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 I hate the Oilers retro jerseys. Just go back to the pre-Edge jerseys.The Islanders jerseys are meh, if they get a matching white one I wont mind.Minnesota needs to get matching home and aways. I hate when teams have mismatching uniforms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hormone Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 I hate when teams have mismatching uniforms.This bothers me as well. It looks like this will be the case for the Flyers and possibly the Oilers and the Isles too this season.Pick a uni and stick with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyports Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 TSN mentioned draftee Matt Duchene, picked third by the Avalanche, is 'into art and designs his own hockey sweaters.' I wanna see some concepts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delicate Genius Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 The Oilers announced a couple months back that the retro jersey is now the home jersey. They will be wearing it 27 times at Rexall Place next season.http://www.edmontonjournal.com/sports/hock...1842/story.htmlThe navy jersey is slowly disappearing. Some stores in Edmonton aren't even selling it any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampman Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 The navy jersey is slowly disappearing. Some stores in Edmonton aren't even selling it any more.Too bad--it actually looks good, the orange & blue one is ugly--and I thought this from the start--back in the WHA days.It has nothing to do with the Cups they won or anything else--just the look of the uni.I like the navy & copper one (Other than the stuck in the early 70's logo)We need teams to dump the ugly unis and dump the good ones.

Legend Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 The Islanders aren't using that full time next year, nothing about it is new really.They have to wait a few years before changing to retro full time. Which I am personally sick of every team doing the retro thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarsofthumper Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Hawks gave out the standard red sweater. I know we're tossing the black alternate and using the WC style Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hormone Posted June 28, 2009 Share Posted June 28, 2009 Hawks gave out the standard red sweater. I know we're tossing the black alternate and using the WC styleI think that stinks. The Hawks were one of the few teams that truly used an alt like it should be (IMO)...a version of their home/road in their secondary color. Now they join the long list of teams who's alt is a retro.

Now they join the long list of teams who's alt is a retro.I'll disagree. Their former black alt was more similar to their road jersey than their home was to the road because of the striping patterns. It made a classic jersey look out of place for no reason. Now that their new alt is more different than the 2 other jerseys that remain, problem solved.
