White Uniforms

[WNY Sabres]

Sabres white on white uniforms are so bland. Make the pants blue to greatly improve the look!

Who designed this monstrosity, one of the Pegula daughters?

Welcome.

I think they look like diapers. Blue pants would be way better.

Blue pants yes.

 

But also blue shoulders. Every other while jersey in the league has colored shoulders. The view on TV from above the ice just washes out. The “B’s” aren’t enough.

Yeah the white pants have to go. The rest is good.

They have but now we won't have to see them again. Reverse Retros are done.

Yes.

I really like these uniforms. I don't care what anyone else thinks about me liking them.

I think they are really interesting and different. I like different.

Blue pants would make them look like beer league.

One post and he figured it out.  Get them the dam  blue pants. 

[PerreaultForever]

Ya, I hate their tighty whities. 

[Eleven]

The Strange Brew unis are hideous.

Which begs the question, who within the organization signed off on them?  You can’t blame whoever designed them as I am sure they were presented multiple options by the design team, and this mess is the one that was selected. 

[bunomatic]

It makes the team look like orderlies. Lily white comes to mind or heavenly or angelic all which implies ‘ not so threatening ‘ or ‘ tough ‘. Correct me if I’m wrong but they have a better record in the black goatheads. Perhaps the goatheads gives the guys a psychological lift. Rasmus Dahlin recently said the guys loved playing in the goatheads. Hockey players are a superstitious lot and maybe they feel less capable in the angelic whites ?

That's not how it works.

Please enlighten me.  😉

There are a dozen or so people from several organizations (NHL, Team, Adidas) that all have to come to some sort of agreement, then sign off on it.

It's not like Pegula is sitting in some haberdashery and the salesman is bringing out different styles and seeing if he has it in Terry's size.

Topics like this always amaze and intrigue me. Surely people understand that their opinion on anything is not the be all, end all. 
I have no problem with everyone’s opinion, just that they think it’s so absolute.

What I wrote, I know to be true. Sometimes, even the people who have to sign off on stuff aren't always happy with some of the final decisions.

The white pants look horrendous with white jersey and socks!

Not saying he is, but are you trying to tell me that some party outside of PSE is forcing a design on them, that they don’t care for?

No one is forcing anything and I never said that.

It is a mutually agreed upon design. That is different.
