still true.

Detroit has a great jersey (red) and a bad one (white)

To the haters, they look good in action.

Based on that picture I'm not sure they should even be legal.

oh please, it's the same thing. They're both good.

 

[BigBadBruins7708]

oh please, it's the same thing. They're both good.

no, it isnt the same thing.

1 is a solid color, the other has mismatched sleeves. Hence, 1 is good, the other is not.

if they were "the same thing" the white jersey would have white sleeves.

where are teams all of a sudden getting the idea to use such beautiful jerseys

 

[Beauner]

Interesting response to the jerseys. Some absolutely love them and some hate them. No real middle ground

Dude it's your opinion and the other poster has their opinion.


I actually love these new threads. It's a bit of a pipe dream but I'd love to see these gold uni's against other teams' coloured uniforms ie. Oilers blue or Detroit red.

These are GREAT third jerseys!! I really like them!

Same great crest, same great color scheme, they just reversed the primary and trim.

They borrowed an idea from the 80's, a GREAT era for jerseys, as opposed to the 90's, a horrible ara for jerseys. On that note, I'm so glad Pittsburgh did NOT bring back those lousy jerseys from the 90's! Back when they tried to fix something that wasn't broken. Namely their jersey's, specifically their crest.

 

[MAHJ71]

Its OK.

Reminds me of the Preds set up with the gold helmets though.

 

[Pay Carl]

those look awesome

Penguins have been doing some good things with their jerseys the last few years since they started to ditch that sand-colored-gold

 

[DowntownBooster]

Definitely a great set, but I would have preferred

Never really a fan of the diagonal lettering on their jerseys. For some reason it only seems to look good for the Rangers.

Not always apparent, but I think all jerseys have that on their shoulders now.

Looks like instead of wearing shoulder pads they've all got a roll of Bounty on each shoulder for protection.

Hmm... throw some rolls of toilet paper around their knees and elbows and I may have just solved 80% of concussion issues.

I don't know who came up with the concept of having multiple types of fabric on a jersey. Either use mesh for the whole jersey or don't use it at all. It looks stupid with the shoulder yoke being mesh and the rest of the jersey a different material.

Removing the triangle from the pens logo ruins this. Why are they removing the triangle??

I agree. The penguin looks out of place without the familiar triangle in the background.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Not a fan.

But at least they aren't blue.

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Hate the Pens but love their jerseys.

 

[jetsforever]

Nashville should learn from these the proper way to do yellow.

 

[Sniper99]

Definitely a great set, but I would have preferred

Fully agree. loved that jersey.

Same thing with every jersey. People are irrational, These are okay, hard to top their main uniform.

 

[PerdFan]

Nashville is a-ok with our “gold”. But thanks for thinking of us

 

[Gunnersaurus Rex]

Haha...those are awful. Love it. Numbers on shoulders but nothing on sleeves

Yellow is a terrible main colour for a hockey jersey.

Some people have bad, and good taste, respectively.

 

[Nico Hischier]

Now they can change their name to the Pittsburgh bumblebees

Shoulders look like this to me

You guys do realize they both use the exact same colour, right? PMS 1235C.

 

[NewtJorden]

Wow, this actually look pretty good

 

[Boxscore]

Yuck. Would have been okay if there was a bottom stripe. Looking at a full picture of the jersey it looks like an ugly t-shirt.

edit: Wearing them on the ice with full equipment they will probably look sharp, but seeing a fan walking around in them I think they look terrible, if that makes any sense.

I do agree - there should be a stripe at the bottom. But, damn, they're nice.

 

[Its a Trap]

The whole number on the shoulders thing is really bad.
