Not a fan. Wish they had just used the helmet decal as the main logo on the jersey.

Really like the helmet decal.

Should have saved this design for a third jersey that had "Jerks" written across the front instead of "Canes"

If that's supposed to be an improvement on the old one, then it's a huge misfire.

Pulling a page out of the Lightning playbook I see:





Curious about the "raised-3D helmet decals" -- something that has been used on MLB helmets and the front/back bumpers of Football helmets, but not hockey...

"Avs." "Canes." "Leafs." "Habs." "Rags." "Bolts."

These are nicknames, and it is supremely stupid to splash these monikers on game-worn uniforms.

With all due respect, I heartily disagree. We might not have the best looking main set, but they are far from the worst. The retros are easily up there with the nicest in the league as well.

Oh you wouldn’t love a FLAMS jersey? I’d buy a FLAMS jersey.

Agreed on the bolded part.

Our home and away set, however, are embarrassingly bad.

Mmmm. No.

I will agree that the home and away set are not among the best in the League, but they are also a far, FAR cry from "embarrassingly bad." They're at best "fine," and at worst "marginal."

I actually really liked their old white ones. These ones are awful and the black ones they released last year are even worse.

This is just another point on the long list of reasons why I do not like Tom Dundon.
