TalktoChuck Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Does the addition of those lines in the numbers make it unique enough to not be violating the use of the ducks font?Are they proprietary?If they are, then I am guessing that either Reebok or the NHL owns the rights and that neither of them have a problem with two teams using the font.

burgess Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Folks, maybe it's just me, but that looks an awful lot like the Thrashers' number font.Here's a picture to illustrate:We'll know more once we see some more numbers.EDIT: On second thought, maybe it looks more like the Ducks' font, as many people here have stated: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stampman Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 That useless piping is annoying please fot the love of god get rid of it everywhereAgreed.I've never been a fan of piping, and there is so much gratuitous piping int he NHL these days.

knnhrvy16 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Does the addition of those lines in the numbers make it unique enough to not be violating the use of the ducks font?How do we know that it's the Ducks' font? We've only seen what the 1 looks like; while that 1 does look like Anahiem's, 2-9 and 0 could look completely different. We won't know 'till we see more numbers. The opinions I express are mine, and mine only. If I am to express them, it is not to say you or anyone else is wrong, and certainly not to say that I am right.

Roger Clemente Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 True North to make Hockey Ops announcement today at 11 AMhttp://winnipeg.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=566921It's probably just to officially confirm that they have indeed hired Claude Noel as their head coach which, while reported yesterday, was never actually formally announced.Not surprised the numbers are so similar to Anaheim's. Those two teams were the guinea pigs for sublitwill, and now lots of teams are using it. I still think it is cheap looking, and hated when Atlanta swapped to it last year.I didn't know what sublitwill was until I looked it up right now. It would appear that the Ducks only used Sublitwill during the 2008-09 and 2009-10 seasons and only for a handful of players as many game-worn jerseys from those seasons have the standard triple layered twill (albeit kiss-cut). The Predators recent sets only seemed to use Sublitwill on the sleeve numbers. The back numbers were still two solid layers.

north dakota Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Corey Perry was just on Sportscenter and he was wearing the Ducks alt. jersey. Are the Ducks expected to make a jersey change too? Woah! You think I'm Cody? My name is Carl Scott Simone and we just happen to share a birthday. BIG DEAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Clemente Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I don't think the Ducks are yet committed to going to the third jersey as a full-time home jersey. I think they just wear it a lot for public events now because it's new. Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you.

elliott Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 I'm hoping that, if these are similar to what we will actually see unveiled today, the piping at least goes UNDER the hem stripes instead of over it. That bothers me. Dribbble ... Behance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Count me among the fans of using yellow as the home, but also in the anti-apron strings camp. I just don't get them on any jersey they've ben used. Maybe it was like that when the first team put Northwestern stripes on a football jersey's sleeves. But it just never looks right to me.Northwestern stripes never made anyone look pear-shaped and overweight the way apron-string piping does. The Green Bay Packers Uniform Database!

kw11333 Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Looks like Winnipeg will announce it name at the podium before their pick. It will probably be Jets, just not sure if it will have "Winnipeg" or "Manitoba" in front of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUELANDbeliever Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Looks like Winnipeg will announce it name at the podium before their pick. It will probably be Jets, just not sure if it will have "Winnipeg" or "Manitoba" in front of it.that would be incredibly selfish of them (hear me out). The draft is NOT about the teams themselves (in terms of an off-ice perspective such as jerseys, logos, etc). The draft is and should always be about the players that got drafted and what they mean to the lineups. BigMac's posts make me want to punch babies.Hockey is weird and I love it.
