Pierre Dorion pay attention:

the rebuild, the prospects, the young coach and GM, the players and prospects punching above their weight - so much of the ‘Sens Way’ and history of how the club was successful was lost when Muckler was fired. We were a conservative club that looked inward for solutions - with Murray we became a club that looked for solutions outside of the club (bad trades, bad signings, bad prospect management)

the rebrand is to bring the fans back to a time when we had pride in the club, the entire city beloved in the function of the team and the process - that’s all been destroyed and although it’s a good idea to bring the tie or those organtiozanal standards and practice - there is no way in hell a Melnyck owned team can have a standard that anyone can respect because the root cause of our success under Martin/Muckler etc was that the organization respected their players and cherished them - Melnyck owner franchises can’t do that - he wants the praise for himself as a saviour and authority figure of a difficult fan base (Which he doesn’t realize he will never ever get).

for the rebrand to work with the fans and he full commitment to the players has to be brought back. Until it does, the fans won’t be back because we bought tickets so Alfie, Chara and Redden stayed in town, we were a part of it, there was a direct link between your $18 beer and Alfie staying in Ottawa. Now when you buy an $18 beer some of that goes to casino debt, some goes to a divorce payment, some goes to a fake charity - the link between true fan support and the team is gone.

Well to be fair, we arguably had the franchise's best seasons from 2003-2007, which was when Melnyk first bought the team, no?

Muckler was fired after the SC finals, and once he was gone so was the Sens way

The first part of my post was in response to @NyQuil (pretty sure I quoted him) who said that Giant Tiger might have some "old 2D" product in storage that they put out. Which is why I said it cannot be "old 2D" because the picture of the boxers shows the newer updated 2D with the gold trim.

Oh I got ya....just clarifying that my comment was regarding the very real and current fanatics 2d jersey that was just leaked at ct, i checked it out in person...fanatics had not produced this logo on a jersey previously to my knowledge and are an official retailer for the league and team, I guess that confirmed it to me personally!

I know people are joking about the release but the press release talks about an event on October 6th. I guess they could have hid the logo from us even after it leaked but I don't really see the point.

So the next big date unless there are more leaks is October 6th. I would hope that's when they go on sale. I would like to snag one.

It is nothing special because October 6th is draft day. They will probably be revealing the jersey with whoever we select 3rd overall.

I hope we do away with the O and the 3D head for good.

Both are dreadful.


Absolutely stoked for the 2D however!!!

There is still a ton of 3D stuff out there in stores. Might be hard for many places to bring in new 2D gear without moving the old inventory first. Unless that stuff is going on a deep discount soon to get rid of it.

hey guys.
saw the jersey leak and thought it was...meh.

thought i'd show my my (really quick) tinkerings.

First, the logo. The cockcomb on the senator's head never made sense to me. why is there the black empty space between it and the helmet? i also hate the wings behind the head and not a fan of the laurel. fixed his gross nose and mouth a bit.

Jerseywise, the new jerseys have some inconsistencies that i hate. i used the "new" logo on it, but fixed the jerseys up.

Fix #1: there's white piping around the logo but nowhere else on the new jerseys. so, eliminate the white around the logo.

Fix #2: Still get rid of the white around the logo but incorporate more gold piping/edging. I actually really like this version.

hope you don't mind my tinkering. let me know if you dig or if this is an abomination unto god's eyes

NHL.com still doesn't have the new logo up. I wonder if they're waiting for the jersey release. Looking forward to seeing the merch start to show up online.

I can certainly appreciate your effort, but if you want my truly honest opinion, that logo is absolutely hideous.

I like the version where it has a black outline, but don't really like the gold. However, there will be white numbers on the jerseys, so the white outline of the logo is fine, IMO

Version one is cool, I like it. But version 2 I think is absolutely f***ing great. I’m almost going to be disappointed with the new jersey seeing how good the 2nd one looks with the gold trim lol

not going to lie: it is making chicken salad out of chicken turds.
not sure what you expect from what's now not THE worst logo in the league (old Sens would be tied with the Canes for the worst). my change improves it to bottom 3.

thanks.
i actually think the Sens' logo and jerseys have been some of the worst in the league (sorry, guys. just my taste. would have the Canes and Avs up there as well).
if it were up to me, it would be an updated version of the Ottawa Nationals' jerseys because they're f'ing gorgeous.

that said, i found the "new" leaked jerseys to be disjointed and underwhelming. if i had to use the "new" logo, i really think it looks better with the black outline or the gold outline and piping.
glad you liked it.

The numbers on the jersey will be white.

That's your uninformed and uneducated opinion. Not sure why you're even coming to this forum to spew your hatred.
