Not sure where that crest came from, though. That's the second CCM mesh (the other also a Howe, ironically, that @cowboys used to own) with those curved wings. I've never seen a gamer with that crest, but my pre-1990 Flyers knowledge is a little spotty. Maybe @rob77ta can chime in if he comes on sometime. Thanks for the info. I hadn't even noticed the pointiness / curviness of the wings on the crest until you mentioned it... It does not appear to be 'on-ice' exact compared to anything. Still, not as bad as this: My hometown team used to use a direct rip-off of the flyers logo, but were forced to switch it to this due to trademark issues. I wondered if the jersey I got might be from some affiliate team or something, but it seems more likely that either CCM didn't pay too much attention to making retail jersey crests match, or that it is an after-market crest. Although I'm just guessing... Edited May 13, 2017 by Ash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsh139 Posted May 13, 2017 Report Share Posted May 13, 2017 Ha! That is a ripoff indeed. Here's the other one with the curved crest. I've seen it before, just not sure they ever used it on-ice: http://www.ebay.com/itm/322224772156 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great spot! Thanks. I tried to work out what the numbers may have been, but there's not enough of a stitch imprint on the mesh material to tell. Makes sense though, as it definitely had a different, longer, nameplate at some stage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsl135 Posted May 14, 2017 Report Share Posted May 14, 2017 Back from EPS... Quad Patch jersey FTW! I wasn't a fan of the All Star jerseys this year, but figured this was a pretty cool way to honor Wayne Simmonds' MVP of the All Star Game. My first Simmer jersey too.

I think they still have some left, but I'm not positive. And since they did the Skills Comp jerseys, the font being slightly off from what the Flyers wear (barely noticeable) is actually technically correct.

Energy Legs Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Got my two spring sale jerseys back from EPS a couple of days ago. I'm probably going to send the Brind'Amour back at some point to get the patch moved, since it's too high. My fault for not being specific about placement.

Carl Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 It arrived today. I'm so happy with Keener's job, the etching on the lettering is simply ??. The Kings lettering is so hard to get accurately when it's not Bobcat, but Keener seems to have found a way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawks2797 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) Few back from Keener today! Extremely pleased with the turnouts! For some of the Flyers fans out there that wondered about it, I think he knocked it out of the park! Big thanks to Hockey Bob as well for helping me find the Hawks and USA!

jsh139 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Nice haul. That Roenick Flyers looks good at first glance. Numbers look good and the font is the correct pre-lockout. Does Keener supply nameplates for the older stuff or did you have to source your own? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 Been waiting a while for Mfitz to decide he was changing the focus of his collection again so I could snag this from him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keener has all air knit and all ultrafil that i have needed. He even had Starter mesh nameplates for the Av's.

mfitz804 Posted May 15, 2017 Report Share Posted May 15, 2017 That wasn't so much a change of focus as a "why did I buy a jersey that doesn't fit and I won't wear". But in any event, it's got a better home now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
