We’ve seen that before. Since these things are done primarily to sell jerseys, they might as well show the ones they are selling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Satans Hockey Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 I've never understood the inside collar stuff, always feels like an absolute waste. Put it on the back collar instead, at least it would be seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that said, having them inside doesn't make sense either. I guess if it weren't for the internet and you came across a game jersey and it was a surprise that you found, that would be cool. But clearly thats not the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satans Hockey Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Basically looks like our current retro jerseys except green is the dominant color instead of red. I wonder if we are going to have red pants and green helmets with these now too. Meh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha yes I know that's what they are called but I'm curious if its just the jersey or the entire uniform for this stuff. I just don't think I'll ever be a fan of them wearing this much green.

But who knows at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think I'll ever be a fan of them wearing this much green. Yeah I feel the same. I know, some will say "Garden State", "Pine Barrens", re: the abundance of green, but it's too much for me. I also wish that v-necks weren't suddenly outlawed in Adidas Land. All this being said, this is really EXACTLY what we should've expected, given the old 80s Devils red and green jersey layout, coupled with the Adidas design. It's 100% fully by-the-reverse-retro numbers. I still think a black torso and lower sleeves would've made for a killer design, but not to be. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really need to see them on ice. The only old-school away red and greens (my least favorite, pre-Adidas) that I own are a GW #5 Kurvers and a GW #26 Albelin. Never had any interest in the re-issues when they came out. Admittedly outside of the crest sitting a little too low on the chest, I like the white Heritage jerseys a lot (just wish the Devils didn't suck in them so much).

I can guarantee I won't, I've been wearing the same no name on the back replica jersey from like 01 lol The only jerseys I've gotten over the years are the "free" ones from the Devils or a gift from a family member. The Devils have given out a bunch over the years, from the welcome back from the full lockout in 2005(I got a Marty and a Paul Martin(oops), the tenure jerseys and then a Nico signed newer jersey that my rep sent me because my tenure jerseys were like 1.5 years delayed because the rep was so sorry about it (I actually hadn't even complained about it, simply asked what the status was and she said she could send me one in the meantime before the tenure jerseys came in cause she felt bad, not gonna say no to a free jersey lol) So unless you're offering to buy me one or someone else is getting me one I'm gonna pass lol Edited November 13, 2020 by Satans Hockey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I'll buy one, if I can find one for a decent price. The new replicas are garbage, as are the retail "authentics". So its either game worn, game issued, or nothing. And by nothing, I mean I'll probably buy a poor quality retail jersey and complain about it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunninWithTheDevil Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 what site do you guys use to find your game-issued jerseys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Primary source is MeiGray, they handle all of the game worn/issued stuff for the team. NHL Auctions gets some, but I’ve never won. eBay and (I hear but have not used) Facebook are good for the secondary market. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like the idea of messing with our main jerseys (athough admittedly, I don’t dislike it as much as some), but as far as these event or special jerseys go, I like them. I’d have them play the Military Appreciation Night and HFC Night games in the event jerseys too, and not just have them for warmups. It’s fun, and I bet when they auction them off, they’d make more money for the respective charities if they were game worn as opposed to only having been worn for a few minutes warming up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would've liked this more, especially w/green replacing the black trim in the crest (or either black subbed for green throughout the entire jersey): But regardless of me quibbling with the design, I agree...it's a great idea to boost revenue, and I get the feeling a lot of Devils fans (particularly old-schoolers) are going to embrace the "green and red", especially as a special event jersey. Might as well have some fun with it. Edited November 14, 2020 by Colorado Rockies 1976 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
