Nicomo Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Whatever they come up with next can’t possibly be any worse than the Jersey jersey, so I guess there’s that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never say never, that's how you wind up with the crest that they call "Buffaslug" or "Mooterus". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like that would at least be fun as a novelty. The Jersey jersey is just flat out boring and lame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course, it's a way to get out of designing a black jersey fans might actually like. Take MB3's black and red Scouts-inspired jersey and make it red and black (swap the colors), I could live with that...at least it's the Devils colors, with no blue, yellow, or any other colors that don't make sense.

Swap out the blue for black. Swap out the yellow for white. I could definitely live with that: Devils fans get a design that isn't an atrocity; the organization gets to pay unnecessary homage to a team that nearly every Devils fan couldn't give less of a fvck about. Win-win. Edited February 2, 2022 by Colorado Rockies 1976 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These look like "create-a-jersey" mode in NHL 14. Go back to your nosebleed seats where you can see players on the bench clearly, eagle eyes! 😉 EDIT after your reaction: I like the fact there is red in the uniform. I hate the Jersey cause it looks dumb, we "honor" a team no one ever heard of. We took the throw-away left overs from Chicago's sh!tty all black template. And there is so. little. red. on a jersey for a team thats name INSTANTLY provokes images of a red person.

DevsMan84 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 While I still do not like the new Jersey alternates, I have warmed on them a little bit. Instead of giving them a 1 out of 10 I am more towards a 2.5 out of 10. I think I hate that they ripped off the Blackhawks more than the silly "crest" now.

Keep it simple...just take the pre-Adidas red and black template, and 1) go with the Starter layout, 2) same as #1, but eliminate the red shoulder yoke, or 3) keep the red yoke, but round off the edges, and add a white border. Nothing super-creative, but I can't see too many fans objecting to any of them. Safe but solid and plenty practical, and pretty much guaranteed to please most of the fanbase. What we'll get: a white Jersey jersey. I can live with nods to the Scouts and Rockies, as long as those nods don't result in a hideous design, and as long as the crest on the chest is the one we've all loved from day one. MB3 came up with some solid designs, as far as that goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would take that with a grain of salt though. Apparently, the Avalanche will be wearing basically a white Rockies jersey as their RR 2.0.

Mentioned this previously, but if they insist on a Scouts-inspired jersey, all they have to do is swap out the blue for black and the yellow for white, and that will be a "Reverse Retro" that I think most fans can live with, as far as paying homage to yet another team that 90% of the fanbase couldn't possibly care less about. And I'm sorry, I don't want any blue as a part of ANY Devils jersey, ever...the friggin' Islanders and Rangers wear blue. The Avs going with a Rockies jersey makes sense...probably some 50-somethings in Colorado who remember watching the Rockies in their youth. And the Rockies' whites always had a nice, clean look to them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crisis Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 I'm cool giving the Rockies to the Avalanche. This just seems like such a perfect opportunity to take a mulligan on the Jersey jersey and throw a Devils crest on a black 00's jersey. But I suppose that would be akin to admitting that they fvcked it up.

They won't do that though. They need to feel clever and smarter than everyone else. If we get a white Jersey jersey with "Devils" in script instead, I wouldn't be remotely surprised. Also agree in that the script "Jersey" crest really kills the overall vibe...they're not that bad otherwise, but for something that was supposedly in the works for so long, damn it's rather derivative: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
