nash61 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Ladies and gentlemen of the CCSLC, we have a new worst jersey in the NHL. As per Icethetics, this is what the new Islanders third jersey will look like.We got our first glimpse at the Isles' new third jersey when a prototype design was leaked recently by a former team employee. But I've recently been made aware of some new details and can confirm this is what the final version looks like.

NEW.ERA Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Well that's a disappointment.Eager to see what it will look like on the ice though, probably still crap, but I always reserve my opinion for when a uniform hits the ice.

oddball Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Actually, that's 100 times better than the orange pylon jersey. Is it great? No. Does it need black?. Not really. Is the Islander font generic? Yes. Yet, even though this looks like a college club team uniform or high school uniform, it is still light years ahead of the orange pylon jerseys.

This however, is a complete failure. No one is going to buy this piece of . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 If that's actually what the third looks like, it's easily the worst jersey in the league. It's like they tried to fit every current design trend into the same jersey. Plus there's black AND silver. It will look even worse if they match it up with blue pants/helmets.

evanmaldonado Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 And they made this to boost merchandise sales? Hmm maybe they're trying to sell more of their primary jerseys, so they made this monstrosity to give the others more appeal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CS85 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Why even have a 3rd if this is the best you can do? Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

Chapeeko Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I don't buy that this is real. It is probably (hopefully) a random design that someone made, then spread like wildfire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tp49 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 This has been out for at least a couple of weeks now. Some speculate it's close but not exactly what they will wear as their third jersey. I believe this was even discussed in the "mega thread" for 2011-12 jersey changes. Either way it looks like but that's Wang for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gothamite Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 That question gets asked in all sports, most recently by football fans in southern Ohio. The answer is always the same: ownership.

sabretooth47 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Everyone knows you don't mix black and blue after Labor Day!!!Seriously...since when did the Isles have black?

Gothamite Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Seriously...since when did the Isles have black?Since whenever this jersey gets officially unveiled.Sorry, Isles fans, your owner is a moron.And everybody knows it. I really think that the arena vote would have gone the other way if you could only take him out of the equation.How tone deaf is this jersey? It's a parody of every bad design choice of the past several years, like somebody put it together with no knowledge of hockey except what they read on a couple blogs.

Morgan33 Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 This looks like a Jahgee concept.All they did was recolour anaheim's jerseys and lazily apply a generic script in the hope people might forget the designer had ZERO inspiration. Didn't work. The only way this could be more cliched is if they put the primary logo on the shoulders... oh wait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
