The local morning show interviewed "it" and a few people from the Wells Fargo Center/Flyers.  The wells fargo exec has a terrible accent.  Not sure where he's from.

01:54:57 mark.  They poke fun at it a bit. Pretty funny.

I'm not sure, Gritty might be so sh!tty that he's interesting. Not to a Flyers fan, he's a total embarrassment to them. But to the rest of us...

I like how they have the diagonal arm stripes instead of the straight arm stripes.  I know the switched back and forth in the late '80's/early '90's.

Mine is the straight strip version, but always preferred the mesh with the diagonal stripes.

How does this work? I thought the city of Hartford had licensing right over that logo and the merchandise. Nevertheless, it is spectacular and a welcome sight to see in the league again.

Interesting.  I was hoping they'd go with a "Sunday Gold" ...which they kind of did.  I'm digging the numbers on the shoulder, just wish they would have rounded out the shoulders farther down towards the elbow like on the older jerseys.  There feels to be too much black up past the elbow.  Also not sure if I dig the single layer "C" and "A"...but that's minor.

One bonus is moving away from that hideous thin collar of the home/away.

That seems to be the case across the board on the Adidas jerseys. 

I agree with you totally. This one in particular reminds me of those vest-style MLB jerseys some of the teams used to wear. I don't THINK any teams are still using them.

Rockies still do as their black alts. 

I love those old vests tho. 

They look fine for baseball.

Here's another photo I found that drives home the vest comment:

The sleeves are just so bland - which wouldn't be a problem if the numbers were on the sleeves, but they aren't.
