From the Atlanta Thrashers --
The Thrashers unveiled their new alternate uniforms during the 2008 Face Off Event on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at Philips Arena. The annual event, which is open to season ticket-holders, is a celebration of the start of the Thrashers 2008-09 Regular Season, which begins on Friday, Oct. 10, at Philips Arena when they host the Washington Capitals at 7:30 p.m.
The new alternate uniforms, which will debut on Nov. 14 when the Thrashers host the Carolina Hurricanes, will be worn 14 times throughout the season, including the team’s 10 subsequent home games against Southeast Division opponents and the team’s four remaining Sunday games at Philips Arena.

When i first saw it, I thought, Football.
with the numbers in the front, and the team name above it, it just really looks like a football jersey to me.

I thought for sure the sweater would be blue since they are doing some god awful marketing about joining Blueland

I just puked in my mouth a little.
Why is it that most post original expansion expansion teams just cannot get a frickin’ grip on how to design an attractive sweater?
