For comparison: damn when you see them side by side the amount of excessive striping on the sleeves and especially at the bottom is another miss for me along with the crest needing to be raised. The white one is just so much cleaner and classier in every way in my eyes. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Colorado Rockies 1976 6,417 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 @titans04 that was my issue with the old red and green too. The top white border of the sleeve stripes almost looks like a piece of tape...and it feels like a lot of striping. As far as the pre-red and black era goes, I always liked the whites more than the reds. I would actually welcome a white, red, and black with the Heritage layout. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And heavily because it's the end result is just...off. Has the same issue that the Red Wings jersey does...looks more like a practice jersey, with the Statue of Liberty crest thrown on it. So then it looks like one of our normal game jerseys, except its made for a bunch of jabroni's to wear. Edited November 16 by Chuck the Duck 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HellOnICE 373 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 The Rangers LIberty was a great great jersey...I may or may not own one. They went and messed it up. If they really wanted a fun RR- they should've brought back the short lived white version of that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This (white, red and black), no green, way less stripes and center the logo, not asking for much. Clearly teams had a sh!t ton of leeway with where they went with these. They're not eternally locked into the never ending green/white/red theme. Edited November 16 by titans04 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DevsMan84 2,362 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 (edited) As mfitz pointed out before, the one shown in the pictures is an Indonesian-made authentic which are poorly-done psuedo-"authentics" that Adidas has been trying to pass off on fans as being authentics. I would not be surprised if the on-ice MiC jerseys have the crest placed better. FWIW when the league switched to Adidas, they purposefully placed all team's crests slightly lower on the jerseys because of how little room the Edge template gave teams to put patches on the shoulders. That is why the NHL100 patches in 16-17 were placed on the arm instead of the chest. Not only that, but many teams are doing 2 or even 3 patches at once, so the shoulder was getting really crowded and the teams want more room. EDIT: Also, it looks like the Devils posted a video on their FB page titled something like "From the depths of the pine barrens" and it shows clips of what appears to be a MiC version with the crest seemingly placed in a more normal position.

EdgeControl 824 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 (edited) The green reverse looks like a wild jersey.. why no news from the league about camp starts and a preseason. Not good enough with the jersey talk.. we want hockey Edited November 16 by EdgeControl Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think this is the video you're talking about... Thanks! Yeah, it's been a little over four months. I decided to leave for good in July for a variety of reasons. However, since one of the biggest reasons of why I left recently left here for good (or at least seems to), I decided to come back in some capacity. Yup, that is the video. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MadDog2020 8,378 Posted November 16 Share Posted November 16 All I know is if they center the crest and make the on-ice jerseys available to buy, they’ve got my $375 or whatever it’ll cost. If they put the crest at belly button level and peddle indo knockoffs with glued on names and numbers, I wouldn’t wear one if the Devils paid me. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I’m sorry, but unless you had a gun pressed to your temple, there’s no reason to own a Rags jersey. It would would be acceptable, however, if after receiving it, you used it as kindling for a fire, or as a form of toilet paper. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
