Overall they did an outstanding job: http://s86.photobucket.com/user/joeshilen/media/IMG_0712_zpsrosxa05h.jpg.html?sort=3&o=3 http://s86.photobucket.com/user/joeshilen/media/IMG_0719_zps6eazqz0f.jpg.html?sort=3&o=2 However, I have a slight concern. See the bottom left corner of the nameplate compared to the bottom right corner? The left point touches the blue, while the right point aligns perfectly with the burgundy and doesn't touch the blue below. Now this may have something to do with the size of the jersey (46) but what do you all think? Do you think it needs to be fixed to look the same on both sides? http://s86.photobucket.com/user/joeshilen/media/IMG_0720_zpsdgvhsmw0.jpg.html?sort=3&o=1 http://s86.photobucket.com/user/joeshilen/media/IMG_0721_zpslxkyz0ec.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0 I can’t open the pictures but it sounds like long name, small jersey is what happened.

Guest Dr_Puck Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 What a Kings jersey. Just an amazing color scheme. Great get, Spud. I have seen a couple of those blanks floating around, I am definitely going to get one eventually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsguy Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 I'm a little different with the Kings chevy jerseys. They are nice in a classic sense, but their color scheme (black, silver and white) and overall design isn't all that special to me. Still though that's an awesome Kings jersey.

I think the 90's Ultrafil is magical... Just the weight and overall feel. Also 90's stitching was a lot more heavy duty and closer together. Really made them solid jerseys.

jsh139 Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 I have the exact same Gretzky jersey without the centennial patch. It's a great jersey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kind of what I was thinking. I'm not sure if it's the way it's supposed to be but being different on each side bothers me. If it's supposed to be that way then I have no problem with it but for some reason I don't think it should. Comparing it to a gamer does me no good because MacKinnon wears a 56 so it's going to obviously be different. If anyone else can open the links and take a look, I'd like some opinions. I really appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really appreciate it. The way you are describing it sounds like its not perfectly centered. You'd think either both sides would be touching or neither would be.

I really appreciate it. I didn't even notice it on the main back pic of the jersey, so it's good that you even caught it. I'd say they just made a small mistake in the placement by having the left edge a little lower than the right edge. I wouldn't think it has anything to do with the size of the jersey, because it looks like they could have even made the nameplate slightly smaller and this never would have been an issue. But I'd chalk it up to a minor imperfection, which you will see from every customizer from time to time. I still think the jersey looks solid.

mfitz804 Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 I got the pictures to work...the one edge that goes over, it looks like all the material is bunched up, I assume that's just how you have it laying and not how they sewed it. I think JJM4 is probably right, I bet if you looked at a bunch of Colorado gamers, you may find some with that kind of variation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted May 26, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 This is very fitting. I got it from our coolest member in Matawan, NJ. Who else would go on it? And then one that I honestly can't believe I've never owned before: I love the all-twill Air Force inspired shoulder logos. Something tells me the nameplate will be a challenge though.

BennGuin1491 Posted May 26, 2018 Report Share Posted May 26, 2018 Added two more jerseys to the signed collection yesterday. Love the heat pressed vinyl on the Blues. Ilya Kovalchuk 1.0 might be seeing him in another NHL uni next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if he does return to the NHL I would love to watch his first game against the Devils and how the fans react to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
