Black and red is my favorite color combo. It’s why I loved the black and red stripped Red Wings so much and they’re favorites ever.

Point is… I actually really like those Devils uniforms.

The Isles? LOL
 
Why are the logos becoming bigger and bigger to the point where they almost cover the whole front of the jersey? And the arm numbers almost as big as the back numbers, it makes zero sense to me! The NYR 3rd jersey was ruined by a GIANT ass logo that makes it look absurd!

So you can see them from the stands in a giant football stadium?
 
Rangers and devils look really good imo. Flyers are fine. Isles are a missed opportunity. That could have looked decent with a classic isles logo. Or even an all white or all blue outline of the logo.

I get that marketing for a team named the Islanders is hard. But why the team doesn't lean heavily on nautical aspects of long islands history is beyond me. It's not like the fisherman is the only damn thing they can do.

Man I was really looking forward to these jerseys too.

I'm surprised at the reaction for the devil's and rangers. I think they are both very nice.


but they did.

The Islanders will have a stripped-down version of their wordmark on the sweater -- blown up to stadium heights, of course -- and will have one of the largest chest stripes Adidas has ever made for an NHL sweater. Their idea was to evoke the Plimsoll line (commonly referred to as a "load line") painted on the hull of ships.

Oh yeah they nailed it. It screams the ocean.

Seriously, why not something like this as alt logos/ jerseys?

Just something different. I know branding for a team name like the Islanders isn't easy. But there's so many unique concepts out there and the isles/jersey manufacturers routinely hire the intern to come up with ideas for the team.

Hell, even the lighthouse logo from the old fisherman jerseys would work. Either keep those old colors, or if they're so against it, then it works with orange & blue also. It just boggles my mind at how the team has just never come up with a really great 3rd. The current blue NY is probably their best ever.

ya, the load line storyline for the jersey only works if one is already familiar with the term or has to be told why it's designed that way...

(like for me. never hear of this before today)

It's always amazing to me, that you can go on reddit or twitter, and see some really incredible fan designed jerseys/setups. And then when they release jerseys, the "professionals" can only come up with the ugliest jerseys possible?

Yeah the Isles one is terrible.Would have wanted some white on the Devs jersey. Philly looks good but maybe a tad safe. Honestly don't mind the NYR one, something pleasant and retro feeling about it.
 
I'm starting to think Bettman is getting tired of people from fans to media for other sports always singling out the Flying V Canucks for the single worst uniform in sports history. He wants to put his stamp on everything.
