Ducks 3rd Jersey, Uniforms & Logo Discussion continued

[GermanRocket7]

I received Jason Krog's 2003-04 jersey of that design just last week, along with Meigray tagging and all that sweet stuff. Easily one of the best designs of all-time, not just for the Ducks.

Edit: and, oh boy, those jerseys were HAMMERED. My 2003-04 Salei (RIP), 1995-95 Van Impe, and that 2003-04 Krog look that much better and more used than everything you find today.

I have a CCM authentic 1999-00 Selanne player jersey with the 2000 NHL patch all the teams used that season. It has an authentication patch sew in the inside, stitched numbers, patches, and individually stitched letters for the player name, has the re-enforced elbows, etc. This was the first NHL jersey I bought. It's really a shame you can't buy these true authentic, made-in-Canada, pro-stock jerseys anymore (I guess you can if you look hard enough); even though NHL teams market them as "authentic," they are not what the players actually wear on ice. From a business perspective, it makes sense because of the cost, but comparing the "authentic" 2023-24 Carlsson jersey I bought to the 1990-00 Selanne jersey, it's disappointing the see the difference in quality.

Oh, absolutely. I know Fanatics will bring back this MiC line of jerseys next season, but they'll also be USD 400 per jersey. Then again, that makes the market for "game issued" jerseys A LOT more affordable. One example: I have a Draisaitl GI from 2021-22 pre-season. I had to pay close to 700 bucks for that, and compared to his actual gamers (4.5k per jersey up to 8k for special jerseys like the heritage classic ones) it still is a f***ing bargain.

Even low-tier players' jerseys from special events (Winter Classic, Heritage Classic, jersey retirement nights, etc.) are immediately 800 bucks or more simply because they're effectively only available at that quality as actual game-worn jerseys.

I assume these prices will take a bit of a hit from the new public MiC line. Superstar jerseys excluded, obviously.

That's good to know. I would be willing to pay for a MiC jersey.

When I customized my 2000 jersey, I think it ended up being about $200 or $550. That was a lot for me back then because I was still in school, but I'm glad I did it. Teemu also got traded to SJS the next year

Maybe the Utah Hockey Club could have contact Disney to come up with better design than the one they have out now. They could have used the similar design when the Mighty Ducks used the black, eggplant, gray, and white uni's where Anaheim was scripted for the crest and have Hockey Club in the gray parts. Then have HC overlay on the shoulders. Of course, use their colors of black, white, and mountain blue?

I’m sorry, but this was probably the worst jersey they have used in their existence. I was really ashamed when they changed it over to this in 2005/6(?)

I think I take the WW version over this

Did you quote the wrong person here b/c you did not understood what I wrote.

I was just making a side comment. I really dislike those purple word alternates

As someone who works in software, I get how hard it is to make a product that appeals to a wide number of people, and I also understand that the customer is not ALWAYS right.

But..... if they f*** this up it will be the biggest fumble in major league branding. The Mighty Ducks brand is likely the most recognizable branding in the NHL outside of the original 6. Especially with casual fans. It was handed to them on a f***ing platter.

Well. Idk how I feel about the gold eyebrow but at least the orange eye isn't ugly.

 

[NWWisconsinDuck]

That is unreal…so far. In a good way

 

[Dr Johnny Fever]

I think I like that eye better than any mock ups so far.

 

[GermanRocket7]

Much better than my initial thoughts.

Because he's been watching our PP?

It looks cool! Anything is better than what we have currently

A worse fumble than going from the mighty ducks logo to a font logo in 2006?

Wow that looks really really cool.

[Son of Gib]

Not sure about the red-orange.

 

[DuckDuckGetz]

Whatever the final logo turns out to be, I hope the away jerseys use the white jersey/orange pants scheme that we did a couple of years ago. Those were my favorite jerseys in a long time

I might be able to tolerate that gold if they let me call it spicy brown mustard.

I guess that’s confirmation that the crossed sticks will be orange.

 

[SoCal Dreaming]

Imagine if they mentioned that Zegras was part of the rebranding image. I can see other fans hating it just cause he was part of it. Lol

Orange eye looks better than I thought.
