New 3rd Jersey; Here we go again...

So I guess it's about that time to start the cycle all over again, according to this article on nyi.com:

Quote:
 
By returning to the team’s original colors, the Islanders now have only two jerseys for this coming season and Goldstein is looking to create a new third jersey for the 2011-12 season.

“The planning started 4 months ago to re-introduce a third jersey. We currently have a committee of people that are deciding on the style,” Goldstein said. “We have all types of designs. We’ll make samples of the jerseys, then make the final decision. This will become part of what you see on the ice in the 2011-12 season.”


I'll admit... I'm scared...


Some more commentary about the situation in this article over at Icethetics, along with 3rd jersey info for both other NY teams.

Also, Reebok updated the practice jerseys for all 30 teams. Here are our new ones:

Interestingly enough, the Rangers' new practice jersey has the Statue of Liberty logo on it. I wonder if that will be their new 3rd... God I hate them...

There is no need for a 3rd jersey.
Leave it alone. No more sucker marketing but if the new generation of fans want
to buy something that is the latest and greatest, god bless you.

This team has the best logo and the best classic HOME and AWAY jersey in my biased opinion.
Any 3rd, should be called a NERD jersey IMO.

:yes: :dontknow:

It's so frustrating how they look at the situation like we "ONLY" have 2 sweaters now. Like it's a rule that every team NEEDS to have a 3rd. Haven't they learned their lesson throughout the years? It speaks volumes that they keep reverting back to the original. Nice to see they learn from their mistakes.


If it ain't broke...

Ok, I just figured out how to put pictures in.  I made this a while back and wanted to see what you guys thought.  Here is my 3rd jersey concept.

Where can I buy one?

So you're shagging Gwyneth Paltrow and aren't happy unless she gets a nose job and a lesbo crew cut complete with forearm anchor tattoos, in other words (whoever designed this jersey)?

Hopefully nobody will buy them and they will get the message that all we care about are the original style jerseys. They should be focusing more of their time on the on ice product and spare us another third jersey fiasco!!! Jeeez!!!!! :angry:

Ok. This thing looks like something Cartman or Timmy would wear on South Park.

Who cares about a third jersey. We finally got the right ones back after more than a decade of ugliness, stupidity and fashion ffff ups.

People want a 3rd that badly...keep the logo and reverse the blue and orange on the jersey...boom and orange third jersey that will keep you safe jogging at night.

Next.
I miss these :cup: :cup: :cup: :cup: and want more of them
