nhl-jerseys

Black is always a color that is one of those kind of things that can one of two ways: it can look terrible or fantastic. That being said, the Islanders adding black is not as shocking as I would have originally thought- the Knicks and Mets rock those colors and they look decent. Nashville going gold as a home NHL Jerseys might be an interesting thing to see happen...but I just don't know how well that will look. I mean, it's good to see color, but I feel like with the proper redesign, there could be a good looking gold third. I'm just a stickler for wanting the home colors and road whites, but that'll be a wait and see. LA missed a huge opportunity to have a fairly decent set of unis. Granted, we all saw the white version of their current alt and I like the way it looks. But they should have kept the purple and gold jersey as their third. It's a solid look. Why are so many teams going go black? The LA alt jerseys are way too dark for my tastes. Even the gretzky era jerseys had more silver. The islanders in black would look stupid. Even San Jose using their black Tampa Bay Lightning Team Jerseys in the playoffs is dumb to me, your teal, you have a great color, embrace it! I wasn't a fan of the mustard jerseys, but I'm actually excited for a yellow Nash jersey, at least one team isn't afraid of some color. There's a pretty vocal group of Mets fans, though, who absolutely hate the use of black in the team's colors, and it's only been for just over a decade. (Probably most vocal against black as a Mets color would be Paul Lukas over at Uni Watch.) Personally, while I'm not a Mets fan, I do tend to prefer their more classic, non-black look over what they've been doing. Even their black hat would've been better if they'd kept the interlocked NY orange, outlined in blue, so that it actually stands out better compared to the blue-outlined-in-orange that they've been using. Then again, the Isles did give us those sea-sickness, Gorton's Fisherman-logo NHL Jerseys back in the nineties... they'd have to work pretty hard to make a worse jersey than those.
