Thread: One more reason to hate this lockout: Jon Quick's new mask

(technical design term there)

And I'm sure there are plenty of black shirt/jersey options for the Canadiens, Rangers, and Maple Leafs as well. All of it disgusting!!

Back to current Kings jerseys: they would be a lot better with the chevy logo, or even use a silver background on homeplate logo (GD, homeplate still sounds so stupid, but that's exactly what it is).

Back again to Quick's mask: meh... same as the old one, just new colors. Ya got some time to work out some new designs Quickie.


edit: oh yeah, and Gordie's BLACK leather Redwings jacket looked pretty stupid.

Lighten up Francis.

good thing the season hasn't started - Quick is still not 100% from his surgery

I would and do. Gold also.

One of Steve Nash's best assists ever.

How 'bout them new black Lakers jerseys?

If they sold AUTHENTIC vintage jerseys instead of "replicas," maybe you'd see sales go through the roof?

The knock-offs are four sizes too big for any body that dons one, they look sloppy and like giant trash bags. They don't have proper shoulders since they are not sized specifically like authentic jerseys are. They sell the 67-68's in "S-M-L-XL-XXL and XXXL" and unfortunately they look like ginormous parachutes on everyone.


It's pure laziness the franchise has not stocked stores with the vintages in AUTHENTIC.

I am a conspiracy theorist on this one. Luc does not want the purple jerseys to be popular. He loves the black trash.

Lakers fans really don't have a problem with this. Not that I don't agree that everyone wears black.
