    NHL plans new, streamlined uniforms next season

    We knew it was coming and here it is.
    NEW YORK -- The NHL will break with tradition next season by ushering in a new, streamlined uniform that blends fashion with functionality, commissioner Gary Bettman said Wednesday. Bettman said the new-look uniforms, designed over the past two years, will be unveiled at the All-Star Game in January.

      Doubt it, probably means just the opposite. The slug more than likely isn't going anywhere

          The new logo isn't going anywhere.

            This better not have anything to do with logos. And if it does the original teams should be left alone. The Bruins logo is boring but its history its Bobby Orr, Phil Espisito, Cheevers, Bourque and Neely.
            I remember that one fateful day when Coach took me aside. I knew what was coming. "You don't have to tell me," I said. "I'm off the team, aren't I?"
            "Well," said Coach, "you never were really ON the team. You made that uniform you're wearing out of rags and towels, and your helmet is a toy space helmet.
            You show up at practice and then either steal the ball and make us chase you to get it back, or you try to tackle people at inappropriate times."
            It was all
            true what he was saying. And yet, I thought something is brewing inside the head of this Coach.
            He sees something in me, some kind of raw talent that he can
            mold. But that's when I felt the handcuffs go on.

              Havent the Bruins changed their jerseys like 5 times in the last 10 years? They haven't worn their original jersey in awhile.

                Then there is this travesty...

                Which is the 3rd jersey....

                      No such luck, the new jerseys were designed for the new designs of the jerseys the new logo is staying

                            That's why I think Quinn's argument about the proper crest not being able to go on the new uniforms is utter bull**** (BTW re: the "B" being "boring". You say boring, I say classy and dignified...but I digress).

                            You think Toronto, Detroit, New York, Montreal, and Boston will be updating their crests because it won't jive with the new sweaters? I think not. The Slug is simply a cash grab and Quinn should have the common decency to admit that instead of insulting Sabres fans' collective intelligence with some pitiful attempt at justifying the slug.

                              All the reason in the world, to buy a throwback, and stick with it!
                              After you all buy the new slug, next year, you've got to turn around and buy the new form fitting, underwire, wonder bra slug jersey :snicker2:
