Morgan33 Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Here are some photos of the jerseys I own..This the first jersey:This is the second jersey of this style with mesh under arms and non shinny grey areaComparing the two teals, call me crazy but I notice a differenceThe tag on the collarThe CCM logo on the back of the jereysThese are both Replica's which are not always 100% accurate to what is worn on the ice. Only Cwx knows if the teal changed during this era. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TruColor Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 We've been over this fairly recently...and you guys all know that I have all of my color info on my site, right???Anyway, here's a comparison of the Teal over the years:Remember that these represent the colors in print; however, I do believe that the changes were represented in the fabric colors as well.

FGWB Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 So it's 2011/12, so could there be a 20 year patch? It's not 10 seasons, so the lock out wouldn't be a factor.If they do a 20 year patch, use the good logo. Not the P.O.S. they're switching to.

poser Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 So the Sharks had one year with that template (as a third jersey) with a different teal before they switched to it full time, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HedleyLamarr Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 The Sharks may be a 1990s expantion team but they're at least spiritually related to the Oakland Seals, one of the "Next Six" expansion franchises. Plus they play in the San Francisco Bay Area, a traditional market. These factors lead me to believe that a traditional design is more fitting for the Sharks.Why do you consider San Francisco a traditional hockey market?

twi Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 The year a team was formed now should determine the style of uniform they wear? This may not come across they way it will be read, but sometimes a look is only classic because it never got changed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're looking for a climate-related reason, there you go. Though that's not really why I think of it as a traditional market. It may not be a true traditional hockey market, but it ranks right up there with Boston, New York, Chicago, Detroit, Philadelphia, and Washington as a prominent, great American city. It's definitely a market the league should be in. The show of support for the Sharks seems to support that hypothesis. They just need to embrace the San Francisco idenity. If the Sharks and Warriors could go halfsies on a hockey/basketball arena in San Fran proper that would be ideal.The year a team was formed now should determine the style of uniform they wear? This may not come across they way it will be read, but sometimes a look is only classic because it never got changed.Well it's not a bad idea. It's one of the primary gripes concerning your Bolts' new uniforms. They're a 90s sunbelt expansion franchise trying to play Original Six dress-up. Now they don't have to go "full 90s," but I think the team would look "right" in a lot of peoples' eyes if they re-introduced black and silver into the colour scheme. There's just something off-putting about the Tampa Bay Lightning trying to pull off a Maple Leafs/Red Wings look. Just like it would be off-putting if the Montreal Canadiens added black and silver highlights to their sweaters and added a 3D effect to the CH logo.

Its a shame because their first uniform could have been a modern classic had they used a better logo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sharks practice rink has 4 sheets of ice and 130+ adult league teams while San Francisco has one rink in a convention center. The Sharks will never leave the south bay..

While I would much appreciate adding black and silver that's beside the point. I don't see inception year having a bearing on the style of jersey, or what it "should" be. Using the Lightning as an example, I think a traditional striping pattern using their original 4 colors would be awesome and their 1992 birth date shouldn't preclude that option. To clarify my comment on classic uniforms, the Canadiens would be crucified if they introduced a mismatch home and away. But because they're had it for a while, it gets overlooked. It's just as stupid as the Wild doing it. Full disclosure, I love the vintage white that matches the home red. Best Canadien jersey over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gothamite Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 I get what you're saying, but Tampa Bay's new sets are so good, and so much an upgrade from anything they've ever worn, that I can't agree with an "old teams wear classic styles, new teams break new ground" rule.

The logo was horrible and the uniforms were really bland. The new uniforms are such a huge upgrade over anything they've worn in terms of the logo and uniform design.

Lights Out Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Let's be honest: the Lightning have never had truly fantastic uniforms, and the upcoming ones are just par for the course. They went from looking like the Penguins to looking like the Maple Wings. POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
