Should've made it Joisy

The full kit is slightly less horrendous than the jersey on it's own.

Someone was talking about never hearing the phrase full kit before, it's mainly a soccer/futbol phrase.

coolhockey.com or hockey-authentic.com they both do amazing work. The Jersey should be available from them in 10 days or so

Goodness gracious. It’s so ugly.

At least they're having fun

That's social media everywhere nowadays. I think it's embarrassing overall but that's just my two cents.

 

[NjDevsRR]

Another thing they could have done was added the numbers to the front like how the Riveters did, would take up that dead space and add more to it.

Please explain to the heathens in the colonies what "kit" is in regards to a team uniform. Thanks on behalf of uninformed North Americans everywhere.

Any sites have them available for order? When is the official release date? Sorry for all the questions

Kit being a short form for whole package. I guess…

Football kit is boots, socks, shin guards, shorts and shirt. Kit is the whole package.

So hockey kit would be the word for the whole lot. Equipment and all.

Thanks so much. A few folks haven't watched any BBC on this side of the pond. When you come stateside remind us to show you where to get bubble and squeak.

 

[britdevil]

Love bubble and squeak me. Right proper grub mate. No waste!

I would like to say that I still hate our current set of jerseys, even aside from the new third. Bring back our stripes!

I'm with you. I get the feeling and this is just a hunch, after the next 3 seasons changes will be coming to our home and away uniforms. For better or worse ? Who knows

 

[njdevil26]

I think Devils fans are afraid of change since tradition and "status quo" were hammered into our brains. While we were winning, that's great... but this is honestly the first new jersey introduced since the color change in 1992.

I don't think it's as bad as everyone says. Crazy extreme reactions are just what everyone feels the need to do.

Our green/white/red retro set are some of the nicest jerseys in NHL history... but the team loses when they wear them so everyone around here complains when they wear them. If the team wins a few games with these black sweaters on, the perception will change.

One thing bothering me is a lot of the people (moreso on Twitter) complaining just wanted a carbon copy of the current jersey just black instead of red. How boring is that? That's some Lou Lamoriello crap if he were forced by the league to produce a black jersey. The team is taking some chances, doing some marketing, trying to appeal to all levels and age groups of this fanbase and also tried to do something for the new generation we are entering. The only thing I can say with confidence is that if the players absolutely hated them, they wouldn't exist.

 

[NjDevsRR]

People are so shocked by the design that not one person mentioned the neck strings yet lol I know many always wanted that on a NJD jersey.

 

[Based Anime Fan]

You're all being nerds, I like the new one.

Radically different from the other 3 Devils sweaters I have.

I was honestly thinking to myself the other day of how many jerseys I have that are just all the same with different names on the back. Happy to change it up with something unique and drastically different for once.
