Sport Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Pretty much my opinion:That was the first thought I had when i saw it. So basic and dull. The lettering I do like. That's about the only positive I take from this. Probably the worst one of the summer.It's terrible, but how is this jersey basic and dull?

fouhy12 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Wow, those are bad! I seriously have to wonder what teams are thinking at times like this. Who thought this was actually a good design? fouhy12's NFL Concepts 2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I guarentee that jersey will not sell much. Who wants to walk around in a cape?The Buffaslug topped sales charts when it was first unveiled, and that's probably the best case in the modern era of an overwhelmingly negative response changing management's mind. This thing will likely sell more then it should just because it's new, and hey, fans like new things. Especially dumb fans.

Sleeper66 Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Someday the Red Wings will succumb to the tide of history and do something like this. Just hoping I'm six underground when it happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBubba Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Why are people looking for positives in this? There's nothing good about this design. Nothing. It's not bad "but...". It's bad. Period. Nobody cares about your humungous-big signature. PotD: 29/1/12   Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCap Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 I don't like to play "Preemptive back-seat mod" but I would suggest banishment of anyone that comes here and says "you guys just hate everything don't you" in regards to this horrible jersey. Why would anyone like it?Sabres jersey leaked, thanks to Steve Ott on twitterhttps://twitter.com/otterN9NE/status/375290351465951232/photo/1https://twitter.com/otterN9NE/status/375290768274890754/photo/1I'm really surprised at how much I like this. It'd be a lot better if the back of the sweater was yellow, but the cape effect isn't THAT bad. At least it's something creative and not a lazy Original Six ripoff.Flame away. The timing couldn't have been better folks.I'd like to know how this is acceptable but the Dallas Stars (a team that's existed since the 60s) going with a traditional design is somehow a travesty. Between this and the Islanders' black alternates it's clear that trying to do to much design-wise just isn't working in the NHL. Yeah, the super traditional fad went way to far in Tampa Bay and Carolina's cases, but I'll take simple waist and hem stripes over this....abomination. Every design choice is baffling, save for the logo. I'm suprised they didn't just use the slug, considering how every single element at play here has been misued or is just plain bad.Someday the Red Wings will succumb to the tide of history and do something like this. Just hoping I'm six underground when it happens.Nah, they're safe. Reebok already tried, if I remember correctly. I remember hearing that Reebok's initial batch of Edge sweaters included a Red Wings set that included black outlines and silver highlights. It also included a Montreal Canadiens sweater that only had the chest stripes on the front of the torso and the jerseys were all meant to be tucked in.

It probably was, but I don't get the "why?" of it all. A bunch of pointless teasers followed by an in-house leak? Ok. Whatever. When it comes to trolling via teasers the Tiger-Cats did it right.

hockey week Posted September 5, 2013 Share Posted September 5, 2013 Here's what it could look like without the cape:Better, IMO.That's already a huge improvement. Why the ever thought the cape was a good idea...and it's not even cape-like! It's gonna look like a tucked-in cape because of their blue pants! I'll respect any opinion that you can defend.
