Rarely. But that’s what I’m talking about. Most of us crazy collectors wouldn’t mind having to strip one to get what we want when they are otherwise unavailable. Otherwise, pick a player’s GI and go with that so you can have the elusive Adidas jersey. Were I a Caps fan, a Tom Wilson GI would have been great for me. On that topic, it looks like the Caps have a TON of Adidas GI’s available, even for star players. Anyone know why that is?

rabinsurance Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 Since the NBA has stolen the trophy presentation on the court (it was always back in the locker room until about 10 years or ago), and the awards ceremony on tv, I would like to see the NHL steal an idea from them. On the back collar of any team that has won a title, they have a little gold patch on the back collar with an outline of the trophy and the number of titles won on top of it. I would like to see the NHL honor teams that have won the Stanley Cup with some type of permanent patch of recognition. Countries do that with stars on their jerseys when they have won World Cups.

Some teams are doing it inside the collar. I think its a pretty cool idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Countries do that with stars on their jerseys when they have won World Cups. It's easy to do that with the World Cup because it happens once every 4 years. For club soccer, each domestic league has its own rules, if any at all. I'm a PSV Eindhoven supporter (Netherlands) and we have two stars above our logo, each signifies 10 domestic titles won. We need to win another 6 titles before we get a 3rd star. The UEFA Champions League does have a patch with the number of title wins for teams to wear when they play in the CL. To get that, you need to win 5 titles. The exception to that, and the reason why Ajax wears a patch with '4', is you get this patch quicker than 5 if you win 3 consecutive CL titles. Point I'm making... gotta make winning titles a bit of a habit for club soccer. For the NHL, I wouldn't mind a patch the season when you defend the Stanley Cup, but anything permanent on the outside of the jersey... not really feeling that as hockey culture.

I think it's a fun idea for one offs like Winter Classic/Stadium series, but I agree that it's not really the culture, especially if your last cup was years or decades ago. Up until 2010, i doubt anyone in Chicago wanted a reminder of how long it's been since 1961. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea in theory, but keep it on the inside collar or somewhere not externally facing. I, personally, think the gold patches look extremely tacky on NBA jerseys. I didn't mind the Olympic jerseys from a few years ago where they put medals on the sleeves, but you're talking a limited jersey and a game that's played every 4 years. Too much for an NHL jersey and an annual cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still prefer a v-neck collar, but with the shield inside the collar piping, Edges were already halfway to round collars anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, V-ish in appearance, but basically they sewed in a little triangle which took away the V. The Adidas is definitely cut smaller, which is harder on us bigger guys, but I managed to find my spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsh139 Posted June 20, 2019 Report Share Posted June 20, 2019 I like the Edge 2.0s better than the AdiZero. The Air-Knit material feels thicker and stronger than the Adidas material and gives the jersey an overall weightier feel. That in turn makes me feel like it’s a higher quality item.
