It looks like the Jersey designer that the Islanders had a few years ago is with the Sharks now. All in all: Nice Logo - Awful Jerseys

That’s a nasty-ass jersey with decent logo pasted on the front.

What’s with the orange?
Stick with black, white, and teal and you’d be fine.

Hey, didn’t these same two guys used to play for Pittsburgh???

Not really BTZ, hockey players all look the same…

Yuck. Orange stripes. Maybe they should change their names to the San Jose Dolphins.

I like the design of the jersey; but not the colors. I haven’t been down with the teal since about 1996 but I don’t expect that to go anywhere anytime soon.

I like the design and color, looks good.

When looking at the orange, all I can think of is San Jose Ducks!

They actually looked pretty good on the players, I watched a season-ticket holder only scrimmage tonight

I will put up some photos of the Teal and White game. The bright hockey lights (not used for boxing) plus the lighting from the huge new scoreboard and the LED ring around the lower bowl is pretty impressive.
The jerseys remind me of a throwback football jersey. I like the numbers on the front, although I liked how Boston last year had color block from the neckline all the way down the arm. The shoulders are going to take the most getting used to.
I talked to maybe a dozen season ticket holders tonight. The consensus was that the old style jersey was a classic, and the new jersey was a lot better than they were expecting. Only 2 had really strong negative reactions.
And if all of the improvements are true, the reduced drag, reduced moisture absorption, reduced weight, and improved airflow, then this will be another element that helps speed up the game.

Those are *#$%@& disgusting.
DIS-GUS-TING!
Worse than Colorado’s. And that’s saying something.

It looks alomost identical to the “old” Blues jersey.
They could have done without the stripes.
Good logo, average jersey
