- Los Angeles Kings - new home, road and alternate
- Nashville Predators - new home and road
- New York Islanders - new alternate
- New York Rangers - keeping current alternate
- Ottawa Senators - new alternate

Stars getting a new alternate sounds good to me. One thing: It MUST be green, and there MUST be a WELL DONE 4th alternate with the main color of gold.

I miss the black Flyers jerseys, I'm hoping they bring those back in some aspect.
The Penguins puzzle me, I don't understand how powder blue fits anywhere in the concept of their logo and the now popularly publicized "black and yellow" flavor of Pittsburgh.
Final thought, the Thrashers football jerseys need to go. Hockey easily has the best jerseys in sports and making it football and basketball style goes completely backwards. I'm also not a fan of "Atlanta" written on their sleeves in place of their number. It makes a good long sleeve t-shirt but not on the sweater.

It's a shame the Stars have ditched green. They probably want to separate themselves from the North Stars a bit but I loved the Dallas jerseys before RBK took over. Gold jerseys would be interesting. It's too bad they never broke these out:  I miss the black Flyers jerseys, I'm hoping they bring those back in some aspect. The Penguins puzzle me, I don't understand how powder blue fits anywhere in the concept of their logo and the now popularly publicized "black and yellow" flavor of Pittsburgh. Final thought, the Thrashers football jerseys need to go. Hockey easily has the best jerseys in sports and making it football and basketball style goes completely backwards. I'm also not a fan of "Atlanta" written on their sleeves in place of their number. It makes a good long sleeve t-shirt but not on the sweater. I hope the Pens go back to blue full time. They were blue before they were black and gold. I agree on the Thrashers, but they are getting near unfixable with the direction they have gone with their jerseys. Something to keep in mind is that they have a different fan base than almost all other teams and therefore will try and appeal to a different crowd with their designs. |

True, but similar demographic areas such as Detroit and Columbus seem to be doing just fine in jersey sales and attendance considering the economy. I just think Atlanta needs to scratch everything and start over except for their road whites, they're not bad. |

Hopefully they keep those for years to come. But you gotta stick with the Orange man, thats the true flyers dark jersey. I hate the Lightings jerseys. Look like a pee wee jersey with the way they are designed. They have sick colors, and can really make sick jerseys with those colors. |

Re: Flyers
I agree, keep the orange. I love the throwbacks, and the Flyers have always been more orange than black. It's pretty unique to have the only orange jersey in the league I think.
Re: Lightning
I actually like their home and away jerseys. They are much better than their pre-EDGE ones. Oh well, we'll see what they come up with this time.

I just came to the site to post these.  I think it's horrendous. They look like peewee jerseys that I could put together on Microsoft Publisher. If not that, then The Flash went blue. The patch logo isn't bad, taking the new Minnesota Twins/Washington Nationals route, but overall the current logo is a million times better. |

Outside of the fact that the striping on the jersey and socks is identical to the Red Wings jerseys (and Yzerman is their GM), I like the two color layout. They said they are going for a traditional look, and I think they nailed it from a "Lightning" perspective. |

I think there's a fine line between "traditional" and "basic." Maybe if the primary logo looked more like the patch I would buy it, but it just looks to me like something a modern day stereotypical superhero would wear on his chest.

Close but would have been a lot better if they used the patch logo as the main logo.
