FiddySicks Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Meh, I dont see why everyone is in love with that simplistic O logo, but to each their own I guess. And ditch the dirty white. It works in some sports and in some cases no doubt, the San Francisco Giants look great in Cream/Vintage white. But I don't think it works in hockey. As strange as it sounds, it clashes with the ice in a really bad way. Plus, it looks so much like those dumb Blackhawks Winter Classic sweaters.

spartacat_12 Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 The Leafs sweater is the 67 sweater. Nothing new there.The new Senators alternate is so far beyond anything they've ever worn. Ho long until they can base the entire set on thus sweater?Never I hopeAnything that replaces the SNES jersey has my support but getting rid of the gold would be a huge mistake as it's the only thing that differentiates the Senators from the other Red and Black teams in the league.I disagree. When Ottawa got a team back they adopted the name and colours of the old team. Gold was not one of those colours. I don't mind it if it's just in the logo but I would prefer if they eliminated it altogether. Ottawa has such a rich hockey history and was such a big part of the early days of the league, I think that is enough to justify them wearing a traditional sweater. They can differentiate themselves from the other red and black teams by emphasizing black. All the other red/black teams emphasize red (Devils, Hurricanes, Flames, Blackhawks).

The_Admiral Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yeah but red/black/gold looks cool. The only reason the O sweater looks better than everything but the laurel-leaf sweaters is that everything else looked like mismatched garbage. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eye Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 The barber pole effect will only work if all five stripes are the same width. If that is the case, then excellent use of the negative space created by the black "stripe".Still though, that logo is bad; a Times New Roman O. Awful. On second thought, that font would fit with the other logos' theme. Doesn't work, however.The jersey template can be good, and can be the singular good thing about this uniform, because the O logo is bad and shoulder patches are mediocre.

Gothamite Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 I'm not sure how well a white version of this sweater would work. How much of the sweater has to be white to qualify as a road sweater?Just swap the white and black. It would work. True enough - it would have about as much white as the Jets' new road sweaters, with all their blue striping. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database! Now in a handy blog.

The_Admiral Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Thought: you could put a white stripe through the shoulder shield, and place the O upon that. However, I've always maintained in Oakland A's discussions that an "O" does not make for a striking logo because it looks like a zero or an empty space. Also, this sort of red/white/black heraldry might start to look awfully German for a city with English and French heritage. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a crime if it did not end up being the primary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddball Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 i love the senators sweaters, and have no issue whatsoever with vintage white. looks great to me. perfect alternate.my favorite sens jerseys since these beauties:These are still my favorite set of Senators jerseys they have had. While I think the new 3rd is going to look nice, I still love this set. I even love the set with the red numbers on the road from the original year. As far as the Leafs it is what it is, a throwback. The problem with the Leafs is that if they ever went out of the ballpark with an original design, a lot of people would throw a tizzy fit. Then again what are they suppose to do other than throw a leaf on the jersey and call it, "Done"? Sure you could put a subtle Toronto city silhouette on the jersey, but again people would have a tizzy over it, so you're going to get the same thing regurgitated.

Leave that for the Nashville Predators and Carolina Hurricanes of the league.

YELDARBfield Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Nashville has jumped on the "Logoed Red Line" bandwagon.While this does look cool, I wish the Preds had done something a little more creative (and arguably simpler) such as using only the guitar pick logo. Or making the redline look like a loooooooong guitar neck or piano keyboard. Twitter • Facebook • Instagram • LinkedIn • Tumblr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not the only team unwilling to go outside the box. We did that once... 1970-1992. Because Korbyn Is Colour Blind, My Signature Is Now Idiot Proof - Thanks Again Braden!!Go Leafs Go!
