Those are some foul jerseys.

They might have been OK if we hadn't had 50 years of Flyers jerseys to draw from, but no.


We were not worthy of this greatness. :(

We all know what's going to happen

They'll announce the outdoor game jerseys that look x9999 times better than these and people will say that those should have been the 3rds the whole time

I just looked at the 12 games they will wear them on their website

My partial season ticket plan has me going to six of them

Also all of the 12 games are before the outdoor game, so who knows what the deal is

There was an earlier post where the top thumbs-upped comment was praising how good they were. Maybe now more people have heard about it and not just the koolaid drinkers

Jets named Blake Wheeler the captain. With Scheifele and Byufglien as alternates. That means that Mark Stuart lost his A. Which means that he might spend time in the press box this year. Yay.

Yay, three players I like.

Maybe they'll send Stuart down to the Moose. Or up to the Sun.

I guess they were going for the broad street bully tough and ugly aesthetic.

I don't know how you gently caress up a Flyers jersey like that the colors and logo are inherently excellent. They really had to try hard on this one.

I'd take the Isles 3rds over these any day of the week

At least it will force the road teams to wear their color jerseys, which is the way it SHOULD be

I don't like them in the first place, but solid black jersey with a few stripes on it wouldn't really cut it for a 50th anniversary kit, either.

I do like that they're going with a white one, though. Just wish it didn't have the gold accents.

The whole concept of a "third jersey" is a idiotic money grab. You only need two: a white one for when the other team wears their colored jersey, and a colored jersey showing off your team's flair.

If you want a new jersey, replace one of the two you already got.

Just waitin' for some star forward to get their ACL blown out in the World Cup and everyone to come running to Gorton, wondering if "hey...just maybe...is Nash available?"

CBJ has half their blue line in this (which I would've laughed at this time last year), 2/3rds of their top line, and :cop:.

So, uh, :ohdear:

Although I'm loving stoked to get a Werenski 3rd, and get my lady a Korpy jersey. Yessssssssssss.

Its a blatant cash grab, and I'm still going to loving buy it. Because our household is already 4 bruins jerseys and 2 columbus, and I still have money to spend~

I meant something like Bob's groin exploding in a tournament which is essentially meaningless being a real pain in the rear end going into the regular season, even though Korpi has shown himself to be capable.
