Blew a great opportunity to roll out an awesome third jersey. They wore black jerseys for something I can’t remember a warm up or something not that long ago and they looked fvcking awesome. It was just the Nj without the circle around it.. it was straight fire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the existing black Alt with all of its stripes would have been better with the plain NJ. Even if they Layered it in white red and black like they did the “Jersey”. Would have been a huge (and simple) improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt like they were wearing them every other game at the end of the season. It’s almost like they knew they fvcked up and we’re embarrassed so to try making it better they rolled out ugly ass “hat” hats… I mean who the fvck is going to walk around wearing a hat that says “hat” on the front of it.

Might as well change the team name to the New Jersey Hughes brothers and friends I wouldn't be opposed to them playing here one bit. I don't see why their being related would be any major issue. Two of them have already shown themselves be terrific NHLers, and the other one at this point is certainly projected to be one...and two of them play positions where the Devils are far from stocked. It feels like you're looking for a potential negative where there probably isn't going to be one. 1 minute ago, mfitz804 said: They were too plain to be game jerseys, but they definitely could have worked from that and made a better jersey.

Re: the Jersey jerseys, I think if they had gone with red in between the white stripes, taken the white NJ off the Fan Appreciation warmup jerseys and like you said added that 3D red layer behind it, that would've been pretty cool. But like I've said a bunch, sure seems like a boatload of fans like the Jersey jerseys as they are...and yeah, seeing my share of Hat hats as well. Wish this whole thing hadn't become fodder for unintended humor. Especially since the black jerseys had so much potential to be awesome...I still look at MB3's design and think it absolutely kills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 I do think the Hat hat kind of owns the joke, like l8”if you are going to make fun of this jersey, how about THIS??”. Im not sure the joke landed though, because while it was funny to think of a Hat hat, but it seems kind of lame to own/wear one in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewskies Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 In my opinion, the team can't jump around. It has three fundamental problems. Goal tending, improving the defense and then scoring. They must nail one foot to the floor, which is goal tending. Then adding one at least experience, Defenseman, and if it were me, I can't risk going any further with Severson so he goes and gets replaced with someone with experience. So that is two experience defensemen at a minimum. Then they need to get some scoring wingers for Nico and Hughes. Will these changes make them a team that can make the playoff? NO because they need to replace the coaching staff. That has started but Ruff has to go as well. I don't think that is in Fitz's program, I see him keeping Ruff and hoping he can get a better assistant coach and another offensive coach. While that might be a bandaid, the head coach calls the shots. Rough works well with kids. Kids don't make the playoffs. Just my two cents. If they don't make the playoffs this coming season, then Fitz is done along with the idea of them making the playoffs anytime soon. The owners have been spoiled with attendees while putting crap on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Dan 56 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 Gotta think this is Lou’s last hire. If it works he’ll coach a few years at least and 79 year old Lou will finally give it up. If it doesn’t, no way he gets another shot. Also Lane Lambert sounds like a one of those guys that got beat up every week on wrestling when I was a kid in the 80’s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
