They streamlined the jerseys, the pants, the socks. And just when you think they couldn't possibly streamline things anymore, they eliminate 50% of the drag caused by stripes by eliminating 50% of the stripe.

Do I like the piping and the same sleeve striping pattern as the Florida Panthers? Not really. It isn't as busy and as unappealing as the Nashville Predators jerseys. But at least they kept the same primary logo, got rid of the ugly secondary logo on the shoulders and kept the same numbering and lettering fonts.<BR/><Paulhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06068647220316091911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419524927872665062.post-67900007924743935482007-09-16T16:56:00.000-04:002007-09-16T16:56:00.000-04:00i started off being a little disappointed, some mo...i started off being a little disappointed, some more orange in the home jerseys and more blue in the away jerseys would have been nice... but seeing them with the numbers on the arms makes them look a little less 'practice jersey-like'... can't wait to see more pics (like from the side and back)... they could still work out nicely... still one of the best logos in the NHL (along with the Bruins, HockeyFan4Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00529825363896325031noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2419524927872665062.post-22215892764024998002007-09-16T16:47:00.000-04:002007-09-16T16:47:00.000-04:00That's Mathieu Garon, He's probably gonna be the #...That's Mathieu Garon, He's probably gonna be the #2 if he doesn't steal Rollie's job as #1. As far as the jersey, I'm pretty dissapointed. I don't like vertical on hockey jerseys. I've said it before, I'm a traditionalist and I don't like change. Doesn't seem like they tried to keep new with retro at all. To me, it looks a lot like a practise jersey. Definately will not spend my money on those.
