As far as I'm concerned, 80% is as high as we'll get. These jerseys are terrible.
Even the the glorious threads created by Split98 would be an 80/20 split.

Terrible? No.
Average? Yes.
You'll get over it. I know it's the Internet and all but there's no reason things have to be either "glorious" or "terrible". The funny thing is that aesthetically these third jerseys and the jerseys Split98 are really not that far off. Simple, clean design, bold colours, new number font. This jersey is a home run if the logo is a little bit better (i.e. No flaming C AND wordmark, one or the other) but with the logo as it is, it's still perfectly acceptable 3rd jersey. I think most people are confusing what they want for a third with what they want as our home/away set, which Split's design would be much better for.
The reality is, a large contingent of fans are going to like those jerseys, they're going to sell well as almost every jersey does in a hockey market, and at some point in the next decade they will be gone.
