The Jets 2.0 have yet to come up with anything aesthetically appealing; a shame, especially considering their glorious back catalogue.

Wow, someone put a lot of thought into jerseys. I for one never go that deep with respect to jerseys, but an interesting article.

Had this gem too: "with NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman showing all the enthusiasm of a hostage on a ransom video during the announcement that sent the city into a frenzy."

I really like the away jersey, and red pants for the home and away kits.

Outstanding! I’d be a liar-liar-pants on fire if I said it wasn’t awesome..

 

[1985ChevyCavalier]

Heritage pants and helmets on everyone today? Maybe I’m just trying to will this to fruition, but…

I hate the current logo. I can't describe what it is that bothers me, but it is..."mushy"? And the jet looks like something a fifth grader would draw. But that's just me! I understand these things are subjective.

The logo is extremely mid. Nothing amazing, nothing bad. Just mid.

There was a report that they might be switching to heritage full time for home and away. I’d love to ditch the road threads, never liked them.

Hadn’t heard much since that came out.. would love to see it though!

Just like so many things with True North, they take forever to cater to the fans’ wishes. I don’t know anybody who prefers their current jerseys to the heritage ones. It’s pure stubbornness to keep the mundane, safe current jerseys.

Well, in fairness, pure stubbornness would have had us cheering for the Polar Bears all these years.

Okay… diluted stubbornness then.

I love that uni. If that was to be our NHL design (and I believe it was), it would be an order of magnitude better than the new kits, and still better than the 1.0 offerings. I bought a couple of game worn and signed ones at auction for a stupid amount of money but I figured it was for a good cause, to support the polar bear exhibit at the Zoo. I got a Petan for myself (I'm not a big guy), and a Hellebuyck for my wife. No she isn't that big, the intent was she would use her sewing skills to turn it into a dress. She had no interest in doing that.

Are they talking about making the Heritage 80’s or 90’s permanent?

Not sure why this rumour persists. Chipman himself has stated he was considering Bears not Polar Bears.

OK, whatever. Whether it was Bears or Polar Bears, my point was that he didn't want to call them the Jets and was browbeaten into it by public pressure.

Well, looks like the logo won't change this year, unfortunately!

Went to my season seat account management page, and most home games display the normal Jets 2.0 logo. There is only one game (vs St Louis) that displays the Jets 80's logo.

I'm fairly sure mundane and safe are in the TNSE mission statement.

I kind of like Bears actually, though there are obvious benefits to Jets.

Could this finally be what we're waiting for?

Likely not, seeing chatter that it's linked to the RCAF centennial. Could still be a nice jersey though.

[surixon]

Interesting. Well looks like they will use a new logo given the logo on the floor is covered.

 

[nobody imp0rtant]

Maybe some variation on the old RCAF Flyers uni, like they did for the Moose?

[DannyGallivan]

How many times will they wear them?

 

[enuffidiotsalready]

It's still not Saturday yet

pass it on

 

[Mathil8]

Very interesting! The wording makes it sound like they could be the primary jerseys for the season?

 

[None]

Modern roundel logo on the heritage jerseys as had been speculated earlier?
