Blah, whatever, Fleury has to stop one of those. Either way, Pens need to pick it up prior to the playoffs

Yeah, Staal looked good, just annoying that there was a 2-0 lead in the shootout and they blew it. I mean, really?!

What a terrible way to lose, we're in trouble come playoff time. We have played real flat since the break

Paging ATFK, way to set up a playoff format in the fantasy league. It just ends, no playoffs. Whatev. Psyched for tonights game against the Rangers. You always play us tough and they are great games. Should be a blast. BTW Knuble has had a fantastic year. Just noticed he's at 26 goals and he missed a lot of time. Caps looking scary.

Troy I'm not overly concerned, this team tends to do that, but have shown the past 2 years they can pick it up come playoff time. That being said I hope they don't do something stupid like get knocked out round 1

What has made this particular thread great so far is the absence of uneducated hockey novices, such as yourself. Do everyone a favor here and never post in this topic again.

Bruins letting him walk after the lockout/after a 30 goal season... good call Jacobs family.

[/h2]Thought some of you would like the news.[h2]NHL JerseyWatch 2010 [/h2]
Wednesday . 24 March 2010 . 2:30 PM
If you logged onto Icethetics today hoping for a comprehensive list of new uniforms being prepped for the 2010-11 season, then it's your lucky day . Straight from Reebok, here's how next season's jersey line-up shakes out.
Let's get this out of the way first. There are 15 teams that will not be changing their home, road or alternate jerseys in 2010. They are: Atlanta, Boston, Carolina, Chicago, Colorado, Edmonton, Florida, Los Angeles, Minnesota, Ottawa, Phoenix, San Jose, St. Louis, Tampa Bay and Vancouver. In addition, Detroit, Montreal, New Jersey and Washington are the only 4 teams that do not have third jerseys and do not plan on adding or changing anything.
That leaves 11 teams with changes to discuss. This entry will serve as a reference for the next few months, so I'm going to keep things simple by going in alphabetical order.
[h4]Anaheim Ducks[/h4]
New alternate jersey According to the information I have from Reebok, the Ducks will be adding an alternate jersey this season. Their home and road sweaters will remain unchanged.
By the way, the list I have does not detail any design elements so all we'd have is speculation at this point. And I'm going to try to avoid a lot of blind guessing in this post. You guys should feel free to add your speculation in the comments.
[h4]Buffalo Sabres[/h4]
New home, road & alternate jerseys The Sabres will be undergoing big changes to celebrate their 40th anniversary season. Their current third jersey — a throwback with some modern updates — will take over as the home jersey, as has long been rumored.
Reebok lists the Sabres' road sweater as TBD, but it will most likely be a white version of the current alternates. I also understand they'll be adding an entirely new third jersey, but I'm told it may be only for the 40th anniversary season.
Sabres 2010 third jersey conceptIt will be royal blue with BUFFALO in a white script across the front, containing the vintage logo with the player's number underneath. The concept here to the right is my own rough rendering of the description I've been given. I've added the traditional striping and colors.
Obviously this jersey design isn't exact. But based on what I've been told, it's probably a good estimation. We'll have to wait until this summer to find out for sure.
[h4]Calgary Flames[/h4]
New alternate jersey As the Flames have already announced, they will be bringing back the red retro jersey that was worn for a handful of games this season. The major difference is that it will be adapted to the Reebok Edge cut. The striping will remain as is. The home and road sweaters will not change.
The rumored black jersey that was previously in the works has likely either been tabled for a few years or scrapped entirely. We may never know. Unless Ken King gets chatty.
[h4]Columbus Blue Jackets[/h4]
New alternate jersey The Blue Jackets have not made an official announcement, but the Columbus Dispatch confirmed earlier this month that a new third jersey is in development and will be used in the 2010-11 campaign. This is corroborated by Reebok.
According to the newspaper, a cannon will be the central feature of the crest on the new uniform. No other details have been made available at this time.
[h4]Dallas Stars[/h4]
Road & alternate jerseys swapped Reebok confirms that the Stars will officially switch their road and alternate jerseys next season. Both jerseys are white. Currently, the third is a white version of the home jersey, which features DALLAS arched above the sweater number.
As of the fall, the white DALLAS jersey will become the primary road sweater. The one crested with the Stars' primary logo will become the alternate.
[h4]Nashville Predators[/h4]
New home & road; no alternate jersey The indication from Reebok is that the Predators will turn the alternate jersey they launched this season into their new home sweater. The road sweater is listed as TBD but a safe assumption is that it will be a light version of the new dark jersey.
Because of these major changes, the Preds will not wear an alternate next season.
The new home jersey (third, currently) features the same primary logo the team has used since its inception in 1998 but with a simplified color scheme — now navy, steel blue silver and black. The gold and orange have been removed.
[h4]New York Islanders[/h4]
New road jersey The Islanders are still a bit of a mystery for 2010. Reebok says only the road jersey will be changing. However, Isles blogger Chris Botta said last year that the current retro thirds would become the new home sweater.
It could be an oversight on Reebok's part or an indication that the Isles are sticking with their current jersey for home games. Botta also confirmed that a white version of that retro jersey was in the works. It's likely that will be the design of the new road sweater.
All of these questions will likely be answered this summer.
[h4]New York Rangers[/h4]
New alternate jersey Reebok verifies the news we've all been dying to hear. The Rangers will wear an alternate jersey next season. But will it be the Lady Liberty logo make her glorious return?
Possible Rangers third?Reebok doesn't specify, however, Rangers blogger Greg Caggiano recently claimed to have the inside track on the new thirds. He says he's been told they'll be nearly identical to the current home jersey with NEW YORK replacing RANGERS across the front.
Caggiano doesn't specify a source so it could just be guessing. I think it would disappoint a lot of Rangers fans and Icethetics readers. The Rangers arguably had the best third jersey of the '90s with that Statue of Liberty logo emblazoned on the front.
Those navy blue sweaters were so popular that in 1998 the Rangers even added a white version for a short time. They were used up until 2007 when Reebok took over the league.
The Rangers previously wore a blue jersey with NEW YORK on the front from 1978 to 1987. The team's home and road sweaters will not change next season.
[h4]Philadelphia Flyers[/h4]
New road jersey The Flyers will don new road threads for the 2010-11 campaign. While Reebok doesn't say so specifically, it is widely assumed they will wear the retro white jersey that debuted at the 2010 Winter Classic in Boston.
The Flyers have worn the jersey on at least one occasion in front of the home crowd since the outdoor game at Fenway Park. Their home and alternate jerseys will remain unchanged.
[h4]Pittsburgh Penguins[/h4]
New alternate jersey It's been widely rumored and now Reebok is confirming that the Penguins will ditch their powder blue thirds in favor of a new alternate uniform for 2010-11. Once again, the manufacturer hasn't released any details of the design.
However, Tribune-Review beat writer Rob Rossi said in December that blue would be returning in some fashion to the new third jersey. It's probably a safe bet that the Pens will dig into their past once again for this sweater — likely going with one of the darker blue options.
The home and road jerseys will stay the same.
[h4]Toronto Maple Leafs[/h4]
New home & road jerseys This may be a tad misleading. Reebok says the Maple Leafs will redesign their home and road sweaters for next year. Technically, this is accurate, but it won't be a major overhaul. At least not according to Howard Berger.
He claims to have seen all of the 2010 jersey changes and says that the white stripes, once around the base of the team's jerseys before Reebok got involved, will finally be returning. He also says the jerseys will have a new shoulder patch, noting that the previous one was a TML logo which debuted in 2000. He doesn't say what the new one will look like.
The retro alternate jersey will remain intact.
And that's your JerseyWatch 2010 update. This post will continue to be updated throughout the summer as new details emerge. Any thoughts on the changes for the new season?

Why is Buffalo changing up? I really like their jerseys/I feel like theyre recently new.
I heard the Rangers Alt is gonna be the same design but NEW YORK instead of RANGERS.
Bruins need to get rid of the black 3rds and officially take in the yellows. I feel like we're 2-45 in the Blacks.

Even though I'm not a Sabres fan, that "Slug" looking logo was not nice at all. I'm glad they are going back to tradition.
Rangers plain and simple, need to bring back the Lady Liberty jersey. That thing was fire.
And I agree with the Bruins making that Retro yellow jersey, their permanent alternate.
I was hoping to see the "Flying Penguin" logo make a return for the Penguins' Alternates next year, or the "Pittsburgh" script going across.

The Pigeon logo is God awful and definitely frowned upon by most Penguins fans past and present. The Pittsburgh script was a straight rip off of the Rangers and no one was more happy to see it go when it did then me. This is how the Pens jerseys should look.

Ha, I had no idea fans felt that way about the pigeon looking logo.
They should go back to the original colors, that's for sure.
