Lee. Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 According to all reports, Winnipeg is a lock for the Heritage Classic in 2016,once all of the bugs are worked out of IGField. I'd really like to see the Jets hosting the Nordyotes, but who knows what'll happen. This is the NHL. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrianLion Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 I'm fine with the number of games, just dislike the two in the same venue 3 days apart with one of the same teams playing in both games. You want to have Isles/Rangers at Yankee Stadium, that's fine. The Isles have been asking Bettman for that game for years. They finally got respectable enough for him to listen. But there's no need to shoehorn in the Devils for another game. Not a knock on the Devils, but since their state is hosting the SB, give them their own game to celebrate it. The SB is technically being played in NJ, so let the Devils host their own game at Rutgers Stadium (52K capacity). Let them host the Flyers, Caps, or Sabres. This would be HUGE in N.J. This way the media market keeps the game, but it's a different, and much larger, venue with different teams taking part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funky Bunky Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 The Ducks only have two home games left, tonight, and April 27 against Phoenix. They will be wearing their thirds on the 27th, and probably in the playoffs, and if the rumors are true, the thirds (or a new jersey) will become the new primary home uniforms. Considering that, tonight might be the final time the Ducks ever wear the black wordmark jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

No doubt they'll wear the thirds in the playoffs but don't count on a wholesale change just yet. They wore the thirds in the playoffs in 2011 too...

zpqmaowl Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 The Kings wore their thirds in the 2010 and 2011 playoffs, and switched to them for the 2011-12 season. The Sharks have done the same for the last two seasons, and the regular teal and matching whites have been heavily discounted, indicating change. I don't know what the Sharks have done promotionally, but the Kings used their thirds in almost all highlights/Jumbotron videos/commercials/website usages. The Ducks seem to be doing the same. the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puckguy14 Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 And put the fin on the shoulders. No need for three similar Sharks on the uniform.

I get the impression that they're contempt with keeping things the way they are now, and teasing us with the third for another year or so.

It's not strong enough to be a home jersey. It's a borderline practice jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tigerslionspistonshabs Posted April 18, 2013 Share Posted April 18, 2013 The Sharks' orange is weird. I loved the idea of it happening just before it did. And then it happened and I wasn't crazy about it. There's no doubt that the grey/silver is a much better fit and makes it one of the league's strongest identities.

There's no doubt that the grey/silver is a much better fit and makes it one of the league's strongest identities.The problem with the orange is that it contrasts too much with the teal and black, making the uniform look terrible. I like the sound of grey coming back, or maybe dropping black altogether? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to see shoulder / arm stripe style but I doubt that happens.I agree. As much as I like the full body shark, I really do dig the fin. And not the "SJ" version like on the shoulders of the third jersey. Just the fin itself.The fin of a great white poking above the water is just so scary and iconic (thanks to Jaws), and the way its drawn with the water churning around it giving you the impression that the shark is swimming full force towards its prey is pretty damn cool.
