lafountain Posted August 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 I agree with the Wings Equipment Manager in this quote. “I want to see how it holds up on the elbows,” Boyer said. “I want to see what happens when a guy gets slashed or pulled or there’s a piece of composite material that’s sticking out of a stick, I want to see how easy it tears. Everything I’m seeing says it should be OK and it should stand up to the test of time.” Let's see how these things hold up after many games. One All-Star game is not a judge of how durable these things are gonna be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafountain Posted August 17, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Got this little tidbit from the Islanders website. In order to keep pace with the new times, the Islanders followed in the footsteps of the extremely popular Buffalo Sabres jerseys by including the players numbers on the front of the jersey. The Islanders, along with four other teams, feature numbers on the front, with more likely to follow in the coming years. Though I noticed something. On Witt's jersey there are numbers on the sleeve, but not on DiPietro's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 Ewwww. What did they do to that classic jersey? Is it just me or does the main crest look bigger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benpc21 Posted August 17, 2007 Report Share Posted August 17, 2007 So for those four teams featuring numbers on the front, you have the Isles, the Sabres, and the Stars who I hear will have them on the chest on the white jersey and in the center, like the University of Denver's jersey. That leaves one other team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked the fisherman, but geez...the recent ones were good, this is bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRat Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 I like the blue Isles ones better than the white ones, but they are BUSY. At least there's no Gorton's fisherman on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoomZoom18 Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 I prefer the ones from the recent years and the years prior to the Fisherman logo. I liked most of all the throwbacks they had this past season from I think their inaugural year. Those were sharp! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesertRat Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 I liked the JERSEYS from the fisherman era with those wavy numbers and all. They used those with the classic font in 1997 or 1998, I think. I have a Palffy jersey from that season or whichever was the 25th anniversary season, I don't remember. I always liked the classic ones, too, but I grew up watching those, so I'm biased Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted August 18, 2007 Report Share Posted August 18, 2007 Wait, they used the original fonts on the fisherman jerseys? I thought those always had the wavy style even when they nixed the Gorton's dude and put the original crest on the new jerseys. I remember they made the switch in 1996-97 when they wore both styles and then the next year Gorton was gone completely. I'm pretty sure that '97 was the 25th anniversary too. It's funny that you mention Palffy because a few weeks ago, I was at one of my accounts in Keansburg and they had a signed picture of Ziggy on the ice wearing the fisherman jersey hanging over the bar. I had to take a picture of it and send it to my buddy who's a big Isles fan. We both got a laugh out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomZoom18 Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 I was in the minority that actually liked the Fisherman logo, I thought the style was neat at the time. Its still one I'm wanting to come across on EBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsJacketsTime Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 Just screwing around with Photoshop today when I decided to make a Leafs concept. It could use a little work, and the numbers could look a little better, but I wanted to share it anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would remove the TML letters underneath the NHL shield. Maybe the TML shoulder patches from last years jersey would look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesertRat Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I received this from the Coyotes in my email ... COYOTESFEST SAT. SEPT. 15 ~ 11AM-4PM Mark your calendars! CoyotesFest is just a few weeks away and is your first chance to meet all of your 2007-08 Coyotes players and get the first look at the new RBK Edge Uniform System! I guess we can add 9/15 for the Coyotes to the list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
