My only issue is the 'v-neck' with the NHL logo. I understand all teams have gotta have it, but looking at these new jerseys, the ones with tie ups - like the rangers and bruins - look much better.

Don't crucify me for saying this, but i wouldn't mind seeing the Wings jersey with a tie up.

Well, the Wings don't have a tradition of laces on their jerseys. More to the point, the Wings have NEVER had laces on their jerseys... No need to start now.

I'm hoping and assuming that was sarcasm right?

[zata40]

HAHAHAHAHAHA I was waiting for someone here to post that. I know the guy who made that fake manip. He made it as a test to see how long it would take before it got spread around. So no, it's not even close to being real.

I had a felling it was fake. to bad, I was hoping for a good laugh.

but seriously who are we going to make fun of now that the mustard jersey is gone?

[betterREDthandead]

I am not offended by these changes. Much nicer than the stuff they were pimping at the Olympics - which I think was made by a different company? Anywho.

Yeah, that was Nike. Every time I see the new NHL uniforms I say a small prayer of thanks to the hockey gods that Nike didn't manufacture these uniforms. Nike is an abomination. They have a tendency to impose designs on teams that never asked for them.

Yeah I agree.
Nike does some truly crazy stuff with their uniform designs.

i'v got a better picture of the away jersey now, and it looks like we are going to have the shoulders like last year.



and is it just me or is the wheel not so round and more of an oval?

[OsGOD]

Its just the way you are viewing the picture.... The angle you are viewing the jersey on is skewed therefore you are seeing as an ever so slight ellipse.

I am happier now with this latest pic... althought that God Awful patch in the front that the "regular" fans will have to receive if they don't want to dish out the top Dollars is well as I just said God Awful... I am staying with the 15 or so old style jerseys I have now.

Depending on the type of stitching they use for the tag (I am hoping the people at Reebok are not as evil as I picture and that they didn't Glue the tag to jersey as well as stitch it) very well might cause some weird looking lower fronts for many that try to take it off. oh well... I am going to see if I can get some more "old" jerseys on good sales.

I'm pretty sure that's just because of the way the fabric's wrinkled. Same with the tip of the wing.

[dustin35]

that tag in the bottom right corner is so ugly. it should not be in the front

If tie-up sweaters were part of the Wings history, I'd be all for it. Since they are not, I'm not.

[twins1729]

Very simple, nothing extravagant. I think they're nice.

i have always wanted a wings tie up neck.

But on another note looks like the prices for the authentic new wings jersey is going to be around $319.99 because the flames just posted their online order form and thats what they have listed. Mind you its in Canadian but i don't think its that different anymore. Oh and if you want that personalized just throw another 89.99 on to that.

[OsGOD]

S&H : $7.00CD
Customizing w/ name : $89.99CD
Jersey without *** Tag in front : $319.99CD

Using you previous Jerseys : PRICELESS!

[DEVILSWATERBOY]

They look pretty much the same but the red looks alot lighter then in the past mixed emotions at least they did not change the logo

The road jersey's v-neck really bothers me.

*sigh*

[Goulet!]

Goulet! likes 'em standing still. Even the pictures of the new jerseys are 11.3% faster versus the old jerseys. Goulet! thinks they had to round out the wing portion of the Winged Wheel in order to acheive the aerodynamic efficiency targets. Makes 'em slicker. The doppler effect is going to be amazing during game play. Drafting is also going to become much more prevalent.

The road jersey's v-neck really bothers me.

*sigh*

Think of them as aelerons. A slight turn of the upper body is going to allow these guys turn on a dime. These new jerseys would have allowed Larry Murphy to make Stu Grimson look like Pavel Datsyuk out there.

But really, whoever proposed the collar modification should be shot in the leg.

[russianswede919293]

The letters going on the right side is kind of strange, but I'd rather have the same jersey with relocated letters than a change so I'm happy with how Mr. Ilitch kept the tradition alive.

[TheCaptain19]

does anyone else think players are just going to start wearing larger sizes than normal?
