It's much better optics-wise for them to poke at themselves for this rather than doubling-down on the PR speak and pretending this is universally loved.

I don’t think the social media team had much say in the jerseys. They just had the unenviable job of trying to spin it as “cool” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause I know I am. Yup. That is the most concerning thing of it all. This organization is completely tone deaf. The rumor at the time was that they toyed with changing the logo when Adidas took over the uniform package for the league, and they were talked out of it by the the NHL. These guys/girls are clueless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention folks like you aren’t even in NJ. We have fans from NYC, as well. Why alienate them? No offense to those people, but I really don’t care. It’s still NJ’s team. 3 minutes ago, DevsMan84 said: That would be an upgrade even. Not great, but better than ‘Jersey’.

The NHL apparently told them that they need to consider our fanbase like an original 6 franchise and that changing the logo would not go over well. Can you imagine if they ignored the league and went with that cartoon character logo? 10 minutes ago, DevsMan84 said: That would be 100x better than what they rolled out.

But with that logo, I definitely don't hate it anymore. I probably still would've bought one of the above, strictly as it appears...the logo and numbers would've tied together nicely. Makes me realize how much that "Jersey" part is killing the whole thing. Edited November 23, 2021 by Colorado Rockies 1976 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SterioDesign Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 3 hours ago, Chimaira_Devil_#9 said: My main ire is the logo. It's so fvcking boring. Could they have not just made the too of the J look like the J from the main logo and added a devils tail on the end of the Y. @SterioDesign can you use your Photoshop skills to mock that up. But then we'd have 2 devils tails though right? You're right though adding the Devils tail to the y would have been a nice touch.

I almost want to buy one of the Jersey jersey atrocities, strip off the Jersey, and see if that white logo w/red shade can be custom-made and affixed.

Just plain. But classic hockey jerseys are always plain and simple, there's a classiness to that seeing the players wearing it it's kind of growing on me too. Would i make a tweak or 2 to it? sure. But wtv, it's literally impossible to please everyone with any design. I'm a designer, trust me, i know design by committee is the worst fvcking thing lol Also when we got the new jerseys, a lot of people hated them too. Now i don't even think about it.
