Sport Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Red helmet hopefully means red pants. Unless they're going to go all Islanderstupid on us.Those uniforms are hideous, but the blue helmet looks fine there because of the blue socks, with both serving as "anchor points" of sorts in the design.Here are some better examples Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 I was always of the opinion that the Dallas Stars should never change their logo or colours but after seeing this leak, I realize just how antiquated the identity really was. Kelly Green, Black and Silver is a far more attractive scheme that is completely original to the league & the new primary logo is the perfect logical update.Mark my words, this redesign will go down as a modern classic.

There is still a lineage to 1967 with the Kelly Green and the italicized logo, but it's new enough to not have any confusion about whose team this really is.Here's hoping the jerseys wow us.

TheOldRoman Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Off topic, but those black Might Ducks alts were attrocious. Black was too close to the eggplant, so from a distance the eggplant disappeared and looked black. When you could clearly see the colors, you saw that those two colors look hideous together. Black was technically in their color scheme as a fourth color (or fifth behind white), but it was inappropriate for them to make a black jersey. That was made worse by them completely dropping the jade color from the jerseys. It also had the lace-up collar which looked silly on a team founded in 1993. Also, it had a freaking baseball script, which is always terrible on a hockey uniform. Those didn't have some of the outlandish features of '90s uniforms, but I would place those in the top five worst hockey jerseys ever, all things considered.

Bad jersey all around. I was rooting against them in the 06 playoffs because they chose to wear those uniforms instead of the eggplant jerseys.

ksupilot Posted May 24, 2013 Author Share Posted May 24, 2013 Posted this in the other thread...too bad the Dallas Stars didn't use the Texas Stars new template, because I think you have a winner.

Xodius Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Crest. They said the logo won't change, so nothing really new in that teaser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youcan'tseeme Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 The logos wouldn't change yes, but they never said they'd be located in the same spots. Look how it bends, on the right, it's an odd shaped person at the least if not a shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xodius Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 The crest has always been a bit large and it usually wraps around the sides like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JQK Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Looking at the stitching and mesh... it looks like an awfully small crest if it is the crest... It may actually be the shoulder... Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youcan'tseeme Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Just the way it pops and slopes gives me that impression, why show it if it's the same crest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Survival79 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 It looks like there might be sleeve stripes (or back numbers) in the background.

CanesCop86 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 Looks like they may throw the flag on the front. Might have some connection with "newstorm" since its not really a hurricane flag. If it is I'm excited and think its superior to the hurricane logo. I'm really liking the depth of that patch in the preview. Only thing that could screw this up is the hem removal.
