Nicomo Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 The huge white stripes on the arms are as bad as the no stripes on the bottom imo. I feel like my eyes go right to the arms before the logo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thecoffeecake Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 It would look better with all those stripes from the bulldogs jersey. The more corporate the sport gets, the more mass appeal everything becomes. Every jersey is the same now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squishyx Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Would have preferred no change, but I don't hate it. All things considered it could have been a lot worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, it's not so epically bad that it'll get a nickname like "Buffaslug" or "Mooterus". I kind of wish it was. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadDog2020 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I'm buying one. Like it or hate it, it's part of the team's history now. Go flush your money down the toilet instead. Better way to spend it than buying one of these sh!t rags.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 A whole lot of hoopla over a few stripes. Whatever. The stock image of it does make it look much worse than it really is. The pics of it on the player is actually not bad. I'm reserving full judgement until I see it on the ice. the whole thing about being inspired by the Rockies and Scouts is exactly what people have been saying on here; a big marketing gimmick. Honestly they could have just said "we think it looks cooler" and it would have left the same impression. just remember that jersey designs are not set in stone forever. I do prefer the old hem stripes and hope they go back to it. I bet in 2-3 years we might be seeing an altered look withy the stripes back.

eldon Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 @MD2020 Really, other people can't have opinions that differ than yours? I think it's fine, and now I like it more when I read posts like that. No matter what was revealed tonight, I have a feeling we'd be reading similar posts trashing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfitz804 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Not to cause further problems, and I totally am partially red-green colorblind, but does that one Dano is holding seem like it's a different, more vibrant red? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems to be the consensus over on hfboards - it's a brighter red. Similar to how the Flyers went with a brighter Orange a few years ago. Have to see it in person before I jump on the color. And yeah, the collar is cool. So.. uh.. smack it on the old ones and call it a day Edited June 21, 2017 by Devilsfan118 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So.. uh.. smack it on the old ones and call it a day Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying anything needed to be changed. Sticking with the same layout on the new cut and materials would have been optimal. But we've basically had the same jersey for 25 years. While to me, that argues to not change it because of its history, its highly unusual that a sports franchise does that. Not unheard of, but unusual.

'7' Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 The Newark Bulldogs and Scouts and Rockies can go fvck themselves. Stay in 1977 please and keep off our uniforms. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell we could have gotten a redesigned cartoon skating Devil logo a la Lowell or some other crap like that. It looks about 80-90% the same to me so I'm fine with it.

NJDevils1214 Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 I echo the sentiments that it looks a little too much like a T-shirt without the stripes on the bottom. I'm not going Armageddon over it though. NJ IS ABOUT TO DRAFT AN ELITE FORWARD!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's fine, and now I like it more when I read posts like that. No matter what was revealed tonight, I have a feeling we'd be reading similar posts trashing it. Of course, I'm just vocally stating my opinion, which is that there are better uses for money than buying one of these t-shirts masquerading as a hockey jersey. But if you like them, go buy 10 of 'em you want, I don't care. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
