GMW79 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Count me among those who hope they keep black and silver as accent colors. Plain blue and white is fine for the Leafs, but Tampa Bay needs to stay true to their own tradition. Blue sweaters will be excellent though--their current thirds have proven that.

Good for them! My only hope is that if Tampa for some reason is able to make the finals, they'll be able to wear their new duds. I'd hate to see the cup lifted in the atrocities they currently wear.

WBGMike Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Personally I hope they keep the victory Stripes in the Armpits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I'm curious about this...the obvious fad in the NHL now is blue, but I'm wondering how stripped down and boring they'll make these duds. Should we be afraid? Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

Bmac Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Honestly, I would much rather have them in their current "generic just cuz 2 other teams use it" design than the way more generic simple striping pattern such as the Leafs, Blackhawks, Bruins, or any other team. It's fine for the traditional teams, it's their brand, but not for the Lightning. I see this change going horribly wrong, meaning bland and boring. https://www.behance.net/bmatukewic8043 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling we'll see a lightning bolt in a circle with navy blue rounded shoulders and baby blue as the primary. Basically the panthers uninspired alternate.

Everything the new owner has touched has turned to gold, so that's my saving grace right now. Otherwise, I'd be scared to death that this is going to suck. I'm VERY excited for the blue....but I just hope they don't go boring on me. *crosses fingers*(It's AMAZING this was kept in complete secrecy until yesterday. Amazing. And it also points to how well the organization is working together. Under any of our previous groups, this would've been leaked months ago.)

At least half of the games Tampa has played this season at home have had higher attendances than the game they played versus Toronto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 My prediction... (very rough idea)I agree with your ideas, I just hate the getting rid of black and silver. It's going to be so bland now.Thanks for nothing Stevie Y. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
