Modells had new ones out this weekened and they felt even thinner in material. Still want $35 of course. I got a Kovalchuk right after he signed that huge deal with us in the summer of 2010. I still have the shirt to this day and it looks great after 8 years and wearing it dozens of times. Those shirseys started going downhill around 2011-12 time frame. I remember getting a Jagr one in summer of 2013 and it was awful. The material was so thin you could feel the screen printing through the shirt on my skin on my back.

He did win 2 cups (just not with us). I saw someone about 2 seasons ago with a Bergfors jersey on. I also have seen more than 1 person with Ruutu jeseys as well.

Nicomo Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 Oduya was a solid defenseman just funny to me someone liked him enough to buy 2 of jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought that GW Oduya off you for two reasons: it was an Edge 1.0, and it had the Prudential Center Opening Night patch on it...but yeah, the guy's had a pretty good career. I remember how maddening he could be when he first came here. Oduya is one of my "basement jerseys"...one I wear at home when I'm watching the Devils in my basement. Probably won't wear that one to a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those Opening Night patched jerseys are pretty highly sought after since that's the only way you can actually get that patch. Glad it found a good home:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecoffeecake Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 I still don't understand people being upset when a player they have a jersey of leaves. It's a part of the team history, why does the player have to be on the roster or in the rafters for it to be worn and valued? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah those guys would still be fine. I wouldn’t even have too much of an issue with Holik or Gomez. But Kovy?? Invest in a new jersey.

Matt Taormina isn’t exactly “ part of our history”. Sure he is. He was a Devil, and at some point someone thought highly enough of him to get his jersey one way or another. I always find it interesting seeing jerseys of those kinds of guys around the arena. I even have a Gomez jersey, and the tape I threw on the name plate 11 years ago is, to me, a part of the team history. The identity of the Devils and our experiences as fans are mosaics of what we've experienced in our time watching the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R00S73R Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I still have a Langenbrunner jersey with the assistant patch on it. I miss that dude. He always seemed to clutch wins for us when the pressure was on, especially in the shoot out. I know he could be a diva, but he was our diva.

Crisis Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Since it's the summer and nothing else is going on, here is another concept I found. This is for all of you guys asking for a white retro third. I personally hate the red/green combination of our past, but these look sharp af.

RunninWithTheDevil Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 BackhandedDevil has done some awesome 3rd jersey mock-ups in the past, that guy rules. As a graphic designer myself, it infuriates me how creative he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
