Brilliant! Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 It's definitely not a hoax either because you can see the other ones in the bags on the floor there. It's always one step forward and two steps back with this franchise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 To be fair, it's better than their last alternate... at least in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Matthews Posted September 3, 2015 Report Share Posted September 3, 2015 If you mean better than their last BLACK alternate, then yeah probably, but better than their Stadium Series that became their last alternate? I don't think so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 Man, the Islanders might have the worst series of third jerseys in the history of the NHL. Just awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBZ Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 That's so, so bad. I can already picture the press release that will go out - "..we honor the heritage of the franchise with four stripes on the sleeves representing the four Cups...

JoeM7392 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) I really can't even imagine how they were able to come up with something so awful. I figured it would be bad, but not like this. Disgusting is really the best word, and I'm not sure I've ever used that to describe a jersey. This makes the turd burger look ok.

furiousd Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I think I prefer the old ones. We are talking 'bout practice, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Red Wings Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 You had to know they were going to do exactly that to mimic the crappy Nets uniforms too, so sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdems93 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I don't so much mind the black and white theme since you knew it was coming, I just can't get past the stripes on the sleeves. Something different there with maybe some orange and blue thicker designed stripes would have been sharp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 If you mean better than their last BLACK alternate, then yeah probably, but better than their Stadium Series that became their last alternate? I don't think so. Yeah, that's what I meant. I forgot they wore those SS jerseys beyond the outdoor game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ Rhea Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 I quite like it, the only change I would make would be to add laces, to the collar, obviously. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 When I first saw it yesterday, I had the same reaction as this girl at the end of the video: Now I do not think it is all that bad. The collar sucks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted September 4, 2015 Report Share Posted September 4, 2015 You had to know they were going to do exactly that to mimic the crappy Nets uniforms too, so sad. Yeah but there would be so many cooler ways to do a black & white jersey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboys Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Time to start collecting other things if this is the way jerseys are going . the worst I have seen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Ouch. This and the isles third are not making for a good year of new jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Pretty accurate to what Icethetics posted a couple weeks back. I still think the Ducks would look better if the triangle behind the Duck mask was a different color to stand out more, but I like the return of the Mighty Duck for sure. The Avs, eh... I don't think it's that bad, but it's definitely not great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jolmari Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 I think the Avs jersey is alright, but the logo just messes it up. And like many have already said, the return of the Mighty Duck logo is good, but the background color doesn't look good. Also, I'm not a fan of orange jerseys, so I'm a bit disappointed with the jersey. What's with the straight laces trend? They look so much worse than normal laces.

mfitz804 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 Yup, I agree with the above: 1) Mighty Ducks logo good, the rest of it, not so much. 2) Avs is ok, but not great. Kind of just there. 3) The straight laces are stupid. I don't mind regular laces at all, but those are just dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeM7392 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 (edited) Mighty ducks logo is the only nice thing here, and they used an awful background color for it. And yeah, nice straight laces. Whoever thought of that should be fired. Edited September 7, 2015 by JoeM7392 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jdems93 Posted September 7, 2015 Report Share Posted September 7, 2015 The only thing the ducks jersey has going for it is the return of the mighty duck logo. I'm really starting to like the avs jersey though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griff Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 Yeah, I think that Avs third is okay. Logo is pretty big in that picture, but I think it's okay. Something different. Ducks - meh. Not a huge fan of their colour scheme in the first place. Orange is nice, but the striping bothers me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazermcblazer Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 (edited) I actually like the Avs one quite a bit. I think it's an interesting modern take without beating you over the head with chrome logos and diagonal stripes and jagged hems trying to make the jersey look "fast" like the Stadium Series jerseys. It's almost like a minimalist jersey, just with a lot more going on than the new black and white Isles third. It's clean, simple, and I really like the logo. For a more modern logo design, for me, it beats the pants off any of the busy, aggressive logos of the last 20 years (Panthers, Predators, Sharks, minor league teams). It almost looks modern and classic at the same time. To me, the regular Avalanche logo is starting to look a little dated/90's. I think it's a nice update to the old Rockies logo. I'm interested to see how they look with the socks and rest of the uniforms, I'll reserve my final judgement until then.

likeaboss2 Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 The Avs one is nice. The Mighty Ducks one might seem weird at first seeing a new background color on an iconic logo but it will be embraced with time imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyMusic Posted September 8, 2015 Report Share Posted September 8, 2015 I get it.....it is a subliminal leak on a future trade...... The new ducks third make you look like a pylon.....and what better advert for your new 3rd jersey than perennial pylon Dion Phaneuf Plus it looks like the Leafs were strictly making trades with the Ducks only while Burkie was there anyway...
