The problem is that there don’t appear to be a lot of great options available, of which Fitz is doubtless aware. While he’s almost certainly exploring avenues for improving the team, he’s probably not interested in a lateral move at goalie. Plus, he has to consider whether he’s willing to absorb additional salary coinciding with the acquisition of a veteran player, which could limit the Devils’ flexibility in the offseason, even if the projected salary cap takes effect.

Nicomo Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 These are simple, but nice. Definitely kills the Jersey jerseys, imo. I would have totally bought something like this for the big club. Still amazes me a team like the Devils, with that logo, and those colors, could screw up a black jersey so bad. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am I the only one who likes the Jersey sweater? I don’t care for some of the merchandise (e.g., “Hat” and “Socks”) that’s spawned from it, but I love its clean look. That’s not to say I wouldn’t be excited about a black alternate with a red NJ logo, but I’m okay with Jersey as an alternate home uniform for the time being.

I see an insane amount of them at games...more than I ever would've thought possible. But I still don't like 'em all that much. I was hoping they'd grow on me, but they never did. I still hold out hope that something close to the old red and blacks will make a return, once Fanatics takes over. Saw a guy wearing a #86 Hughes old template jersey, and man that looked SO much better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semi-related, but I also really like the reverse retro uniform from three seasons ago and wouldn’t mind seeing it again, albeit sparingly. While I appreciate the variety offered by alternate sweaters, I’m also partial to the Devils’ primary home uniform. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s as sharp looking a hockey jersey as I’ve ever seen. I honestly wish we would wear them again (and I’m the proud owner of two, a Jack and a Nico).

I have a Jack and Nico RR 1.0 too...as well as the GW Bastian. As you know, I was actually on board with these jerseys becoming the full-time home jerseys, and the Heritage whites becoming the aways. If anyone wanted to swap out the green for black, fine, that would work too. I'd still want that upper white sleeve stripe (the one that looks like a piece of white tape) removed. But the Heritage and RR 1.0 were the best of the Adidas offerings. The re-design that didn't improve upon one single element from the old red-and-blacks will always remain borderline criminal to me...but at least I'm used to them now...well, just enough to tolerate them.

My only nitpick is I wish the bottom piping stripes didn’t take up half the torso. Makes me want to push the logo up higher. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
