ogreslayer 1,069 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 Personally, I didn't mind it at all. In fact, I'm in favor of the NHL switching back to using the whites for home games. 7 Ram, IILeiBlazeII, Jasper84 and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ACallToArms 270 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 I think they said during the game last night that there are a dozen or so home games where the Wings will be wearing their white jerseys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hockeymom1960 5,107 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 I personally like the red ones. Stains do not come out easily or at all on the white ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Columbus said they wanted to increase the sales for the new sweaters those jerseys look like last years blues 3rd jersey with a different logo in the circle. they lose marks big time for originality. someone who knows how can feel free to add a big picture of last years blues jersey beside this years jackets jersey.

Din758 371 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 The reds are definitely way better when they play at home. I think the red is way more intimidating to opponents who already have to deal with coming to the Joe. If it were up to me I would have them wear red every game, but it is also impossible I suppose.

They look nice but its kinda of getting repetitive now. that's right. i forgot about those lame ass panthers and pens jerseys. i hate every pens jersey though... i like the color schemes on some of the jerseys, but i hate the little circle with an even smaller symbol. make the blue jackets jersey the same design aside from the symbol and they're on to something. make the cannon symbol bigger and have the taglines presented on the shoulder or something. cut the lame ass circle s***. man i'm glad when the wings had their winter classic jerseys they had a big ass D on the front.

Travis 576 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 I've always thought wearing white for home games was weird. Every team has a white jersey, you should be wearing your unique colours on home ice. To that end, though, you would see many more unique jerseys if the home teams wore white. The way it stands now, every game is Red vs. White as opposed to White vs. Blue, Black, Green, etc. I really disliked the Bluejackets jerseys in the announcement photos, but I like them on the ice. I don't mind them using blue being that its tied into their name / a long standing color. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stevkrause 1,247 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 they're wearing the same colors whether it's home or away but the dominant color is white for the away teams and white is therefore the emphasized color scheme, so you don't see as MUCH of the other teams colors... I like the white at home model as well... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigWillieStyle 662 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 The way it stands now, every game is Red vs. White as opposed to White vs. Blue, Black, Green, etc. This^^^ It's like we're playing the same team every home game with the current color scheme of white road sweaters. I would like to be able to see all the different colored sweaters and associate them with a different team every game. Though White does have it's drawbacks, like pizza stains or the errant Buffalo wing stain. I just consider them war wounds. Besides, I was brought up, that the good guys wear white.

Detroit40oz 21 Report post Posted November 29, 2010 (edited) wherever you guys are getting the pics from of the blues/columbus jerseys, those are definitely chinese knockoffs, haha. and anyhow, both jerseys rip off the jersey that the minnesota wild has been using for years. first as their 3rd jersey, and now as their official home jersey: Edited November 29, 2010 by Detroit40oz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
