re: Vegas Golden Knights jersey revealed

V for Vendetta

The Knights logo looks like the generic logos you get when you do create a team on EA and 2K sports games.

The only thing I can think of is some marketing executive thought that Las Vegas Golden Knights was too long. Should have just went with Las Vegas Knights then. Any fricking map illustrates the city as Las Vegas. It just sounds lazy to me when half of the city name is left out.

In other news, the Blues have changed their number color to white on the home uniforms. Which I think looks better. Not that I minded the yellow at all. Also, the striping on the sleeves have been moved higher. I don't see the point of that, but it doesn't bother me. Also, the St. Louis flag is now printed on the inside collar. I like this. The biggest improvement to me is axing the shitty looking V neck collars with weird flap with NHL shield right above it from Reebok. I really like the cleaner rounded collars. I wish the NHL shield logo was removed from the collar. New uniforms are 19% lighter, and have dimpled patterns on shoulders, which makes uniforms more breathable. Every team but the Blackhawks have gone with this new Adidas style uniform. And finally the best news is that a NHL executive emphatically said there will be no advertising on uniforms anytime soon.

Other interesting changes. Avalanche wisely eliminate unnecessary piping just like Predators. Wild have a new horizontal stripe on crest. Devils change their striping and the shoulder panels look different. Many fans irate about that. Flames get rid of italicized names and numbers. That sucks, I liked the italicized names and numbers.
