Morgan33 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 I saw this on HFBoards. Sens fans are apparently trying to petition the team into changing their jerseys.http://twitter.com/sensinblackhttp://twitter.com/sensinblack/status/364138685874200576Ugh. Why not just make a white version of the current alt and call it a day?Because a white version of that jersey would look terrible. Besides, the franchise that wore the =O= logo is not the same team. Nothing wrong with them using it once in a while as a heritage deal but the Senators inaugural season was in 1993 and they have always worn Red, Black, White and Gold with a Centurion on the front that's the way it should be.As for the proposed design? I think it looks absolutely fantastic. It would vault the Senators from one of the league's worst dressed teams to the best overnight. Only thing I'd change is adding the shoulder patches from the inaugural set and white stripes to the black jersey to make it pop. Would also get rid of the association with the Kings, Lightning and Red Wings jerseys Hockey week posted earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their original set was great and this is pretty close to it. Their current uniforms are a nightmare and the 3D Centurion just doesnt work well.

tigerslionspistonshabs Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 That was a very solid set. All went downhill when they changed from that. From the wavy front stripe to the 3d Centurion to the cookie cutter garbage they have now. The only exception was the black jersey with the laurel stripes (and even that had the 3d logo). I like their current third, but it's just an homage to the original franchise, so it doesn't count. I'd be all for a rebrand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lights Out Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 That black sweater looks like a recolored Lightning sweater. The last thing we need is more teams copying each other.IMO, any Senators redesign should be based around this: POTD: 2/4/12 3/4/12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sport Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 There's too many teams that wear red jerseys and socks with black helmets and pants. 4 by my count. The Senators would be the only red and black team wearing black jerseys and socks with black pants and helmets (as a primary). But I don't think that photoshop making the rounds is the answer.

TorinK92 Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Shameless plug, as a fan of the team. This was my idea on what I'd like to see the team wear.As much as I'd like to see the original jerseys come back and to have darker sweaters, but there needs to be another colour. So I gave them gold, but just gold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 Nice concept but those sleeves on the whites are giving me flashbacks to the Islanders Edge set. Seriously, despite the terd in the picture, they need to go back to these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youcan'tseeme Posted August 12, 2013 Share Posted August 12, 2013 The all black look was good because the Leafs, and Habs were long established as blue and red so to have a new club move inbetween them, black really set them apart, it was Ottawa's colour.

Seriously, despite the terd in the picture, they need to go back to these. Yep, I'm in full agreement. The absolute epitome of a modern classic right here. How anyone can advocate going with a generic, times new roman "O" when this exists is beyond me. Shows how irrational this retro craze has gotten...

Seriously, despite the terd in the picture, they need to go back to these. Strange association... What about the Red Wings? Or the early 90's Penguins? Those are great sweaters, and I love that different colored sleeve look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't find a way in my mind that those colours would workI feel those colours would better suit a Florida team than one in Ottawa. Also having black as a dominant colour allowed the edition of red and white (Canadian colours seeing as the club is in the capital), without looking like the Habs at all. Though black with green and orange could potentially work in a design, they would in no way work a club in Ottawa named the Senators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
