I think once the jersey takes the ice, it might start growing on people just because of the red accented numbers. It's the only redeemable feature of the jersey, but it is pretty sleek.

They are lucky the team is playing decently, if this was a basement dweller there would absolutely be some boos lol
 
In all honesty, it looks quite ok from the back.

Honestly, after seeing peoples’ photoshopped pictures, I can thankfully say, I am happy with the third jerseys. Adding red stripes is too much. Having just a white logo (sucks) and it’s too much like Tampa’s 3rd jersey. Taking a traditional jersey and swapping the red out for black looks to much like the Canes/Hawks.

I would of preferred if it had Devils instead of Jersey but that’s a personal preference.
 
Now that I'm thinking third jerseys and the state of NJ, I wish they had done something like the Garden State Parkway logo, but re-tooled it in Red, Black, and White. What's more stereotypically NJ than, what exit are you from? At the verrry least, I wish the logo on the pants of these was in full color. I'm fine with B&W logo on the home and road pants, but the pop of color with these jerseys would have helped bring everything together a bit more. Just seems like there's something missing below that silly wordmark "logo."
 
Can someone photoshop this jersey, but without the maple leaf and replace that with our logo? I think I might be onto something

our wonderful state pride designers must have forgot all about this era of "jersey" hockey ..but ya, rival leagues and all…..

• The strangest journey was that of the WHA's New York franchise. After the team was sold during the off-season, it changed its name to the New York Golden Blades. With an untenable lease on Madison Square Garden and fans staying away in droves, the Golden Blades moved to Cherry Hill, New Jersey, 24 games into the season and became the Jersey Knights. They played their home games in an arena that featured a sloping rink.

Theres your mock up with the normal logo.

Doesnt do it for me either.

Yeah this one doesn't work for me. I still prefer the mock I posted.

Someone suggested they should have done a modified Parkway logo. Have it say New Jersey along the top of the circle instead of Garden State, and do Devils in script along the middle diagonally.

The Greg Wyshynski article on ESPN gives a lot of good details on the thoughts behind the creation of the jersey and how involved Marty really was. @ScottyK gets mentioned and how the jersey accidentally leaked due to an “e commerce snafu”. They even show his picture of it hanging in the closet :laugh:
