Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 2 minutes ago, Crisis said: The Devils and the Avalanche are both reverse retro-ing to the same team that won a total of 113 games in 6 seasons ( including 0 playoff games). At least the Avalanche are actually in Colorado. I found their Rockies-inspired RR to be pretty meh too, but at least there's fans there who can actually remember going to games. And at least the Avs played in the same building as the Rockies did when they first moved from Quebec. We all have great ideas for great jerseys. Too bad the Devils don't. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reddit is another place full of morons. If this team ever folds or moves away I'd 100% be done with the NHL. Everything to make a buck, nonstop gambling ads, ads on helmets, ads on jerseys, horrible digital ads for a sport that was already the worst to watch on TV that's now even worse to watch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanMac16 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Idk I kinda like it and I'm probably gonna get one, I'm tired of the green personally. I'm just happy they did something different and I think it works. To each their own I guess. I always wanted a black jersey but those jersey jerseys are horrible as we all know. At least to me I wouldn't be embarrassed wearing this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted October 20, 2022 Author Share Posted October 20, 2022 The Athletic ranked it the 10th best RR jersey in the league. Not sure how, but they did. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least to me I wouldn't be embarrassed wearing this. The bolded...exactly. If some like 'em, they like 'em. As I digest this, I actually think much of it works...but it's got the wrong logo and the wrong team will be wearing it. Put a slightly tweaked version of the Rockies crest on there, and I think it's a killer RR for the AVALANCHE. Better than the one they came up with, anyway. Would've made for a solid re-imaging of the Rockies whites. But having the Devils logo on there just makes the whole package not seem right. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the only other option we have for nj is that green we've done already.

Satans Hockey Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 (edited) I'm pretty sure the Devils are the only team in this entire picture that is wearing something that isn't their colors or from a team that actually played in their city/state...

Yeah that is cool I do too. I really loved that original design in the 1990s. St Louis was a cool idea, going back to a concept jersey from the 60’s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Whalers tried that look too, but it led to players accelerating when sliding…especially painful when they careened into the boards. Both the Flyers and Whalers ditched that pretty quickly.

Both the Flyers and Whalers ditched that pretty quickly. I just saw them on a highlight from a Gretzky goal (maybe 50 goals in 39 games) and I thought they looked pretty cool. I wondered why more teams didn’t use them until I read about the sliding issue Edited October 20, 2022 by Devil Dan 56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satans Hockey Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 They wore the green ones 6x last season so I guess it will be something similar again but looks like they will be worn on the road this time too, I don't remember if wore the greens on the road last season. If they are wearing the jersey jerseys 13 times again(in honor of our captain Nico cause that's so fvcking cute and clever) that's 19 out of 41 home games, almost half that they aren't wearing the red jerseys. Yuck.
