White gloves and a chrome helmet eh? Only thing missing is a mirror visor and they'll be clones of the guy who picks fights in your roller beer league at 11pm.

With the mirrored visor, I figured they'd be one half of Daft Punk.

Reactions: Raccoon Jesus
Like it more than other abominations they wear- the current black jersey, the hideous grey ones, the other stadium series ones, but it still looks like @Raccoon Jesus said, he's the guy who thinks he has dangles and cherry picks all game and then wants to scrap when anyone even touches him.
 
i kinda like the jerseys lol

Likes: the back and the numbering is freaking legit, and they do a good job of honoring the military without bulldozing into weird territory
the look somehow pulls off retro and new/fresh at the same time
I really like the socks on the kit
Honestly...I love the white gloves and chrome helmet because it's a gimmick and they're totally selling out for the gimmick. It's almost minor-league levels of silliness. But that's probably on accident.

Dislikes: the same ol boring color scheme
The LA logo is hideous
I get the feeling the weird lines--diagonal stripe on jersey, horizontals everywhere else--are gonna look weird in motion on ice, heh.

Overall I actually like it because it's a gimmick jersey for a gimmick game, and even though they landed on it by accident--trying too hard to make something incredibly meaningful--at least it's a different look. And at the very least, it's not lazy like the last ones, god, that was just someone using the fill tool on MS paint to make the jerseys white and grey instead of black and white.
 
View attachment 309179 This is a joke, right? Maybe the artist / graphic designer is not at fault, as the Kings directed them to: "make something really ugly, do NOT use any colors...only use black, white, and a little silver may be allowed....make sure it has LA on it and that's it" Back in the 80's when "BARF ME OUT " was a thing, my little niece thought it was "BARF MEOW". This jersey made me think she would even say "BARF MEOW"
The chrome dome is completely stupid.

But if you just ditch that crap and replace the hideous crest with a Chevy Crest its not too bad IMO.

As is - the bullshit crap totally screams at you, FAIL.

Anything chrome will cause massive light reflection issues IMO especially for goalies. I'm a tad sensitive to excess light so maybe its just me when I play. would drive me nuts.

The only 2 things good about the jersey are the numbers and the inside collar. The checkered look is nice but the way they made the "Kings" fits better than the LA
