Complete look of the Dallas Stars Reverse Retro Jersey...is still bad?

[KirkAlbuquerque]

like the NY Jets new uniforms (bad)

I’m a Stars fan and think they half assed them. To the posters commenting on the visor the actor is wearing, that’s only like that so you don’t focus on his face. I’m honestly surprised that isn’t blatantly obvious to everyone.

Would looks valuable in Rocket League as a color scheme but that's about the only nice thing I can say about it.

They were one of my least favorite retro jerseys out of the 31 partially because I found them to be a huge letdown. I loved the 2000s Stars set and wanted that brought back.

Now that I see it with the rest of the gear, I think it looks even worse.

I'm somewhere between this is f***ing horrible and really f***ing cool.

 

[LokiDog]

When did Cody Eakin re-sign with Dallas and get named captain?

But seriously that dude looks just like him and he wore #20 there too.

It actually looks like it’s literally Marc Staal.

This reminds me of the hockey scene from Strange Brew

Horrible

 

[Bounces R Way]

Really really really bad

 

[holy]

I’m gonna need to see him fake the moon landing in that gear for me to really believe this is a retro look.

 

[Islay1989]

Gotta love silver lettering on a white surface, which is asymmetrically placed on another silver surface.

 

[CookiesAndMilk]

They totally f***ed up the arrangement of the colours IMO but it's not nearly as bad as the one Detroit has.

 

[Albatros]

For one game it's pretty fun although can't say they would have nailed it. But if they had to do a version of that particular jersey then I suppose this is as good as any.

That's fail marketing then considering it just makes you focus on the ugly visor with flashing lights on it instead.

This is what hockey players look like in outer space.

 

[Legionnaire]

I like em'.

Looks a lot better in that picture, although I'm sure the dark background helps, so we'll have to see how it looks on the ice.
The jersey by itself is still pretty terrible - the hunched-over posture in the pic hides some of its flaws - but the whole look is salvageable.
Also, I actually like the visors, at least in theory.

Maybe with the white and silver, they are going for the "space" look to go with the name Stars?

 

[hirawl]

Much better look than just the jersey. Kinda cool. I think the stripes on the socks are a bit on the heavy side but I guess you need to have some colour blocks somewhere there.

 

[CartographerNo611]

See, I love that visor. That's different. That's cool to me. Course I was a big fan of Ovi's mirror shield. I may have had one back in the day.

Bet you had some great chirps tossed your way lol.

 

[HotDish]

I can't stand the silver lettering. I don't you'll be able to see it in person or on TV unless it is a close-up.

 

[LakeLivin]

They’re going to be nearly invisible on the ice.

That's not a bug, it's a feature. For the opposition it's gonna be like playing against the invisible man.

 

[tarheelhockey]

At least the jersey makes more sense in this context.

My biggest issue is the striping on the pants and socks seems weirdly mismatched, and the pant stripes don't interact well with the jersey hem. They were going for a full-body concept similar to 2000s-era Phoenix, but the pieces don't quite fit together.

Still, the entire equipment set looks a lot better than the jersey in isolation.

 

[Mickey Marner]

It's even worse.
