Does Anybody Wish...

[FerrisRox]

...The Montreal Canadiens switched their numbers on their away sweaters back to just blue and red, without the white trim they added back in the mid-90's?

The added white trim looks like its trying to be more "modern" while the rest of the sweater - both home and away - have otherwise remained essentially the same over the years.

And worse than that, it doesn't really work. The numbers end up being more difficult to read and don't look as classic and bold as the traditional red and blue digits.

Since they made the switch, the Canadiens haven't won a Cup, so I'd love to see them go back to the old look for the numbers on the white sweaters.

Yes, and the last time the Canadiens won the cup, Toews and Crosby were children.



In all seriousness, must say it does look nice

I remember the Heritage Classic jerseys were like that, I like that look a lot better than what we currently have.

Yep, this jersey is bomb.

 

[Raimu]

The Haritage classic jerseys looked nice, I wouldn't be sad if they replaced our road whites. I don't like the white outline either.

..that pic must have been Photoshopped cause i dont remember Desharnais being that tall!

 

[Le Tricolore]

I think it looks nicer now, personally.

Subban is the main focal point but also the farthest of the three. That produce a nice perspective effect.

Its that or the ice is freakishly sloped and PK is at the top of the slope...

and I don't remember Rick Nash playing for us

Wish we had a third uniform.

 

[Forlando]

I like both the same, me thinks.

 

[GoHabsGo76]

I like the old style, but definitely prefer the way it is now. The extra white outline really makes the numbers pop.

I wish we'd use either of these as an occasional third jersey:

Or, yes, even this. I loved them.

 

[FrontierPsyCHiatrist*]

Yes, I wish...

I agree with ya

 

[Dagistitsyn]

I wish they'd use this for a 3rd jersey. Love the brown gloves with it too.

I wish they would go back to the light blue paint along the bottom of the boards,the way it was at the forum,the last game they ever plated with the blue at the bottom of the boards was game 5 if the 1993 stanley cup finals vs L.A.
