Thorny Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I think it is nice that the Islanders are going with the 3rd Jersey designed by a talented 6th grader, or a couple a drunks saying, I think that works. http://www.newsday.com/sports/hockey/islanders/new-york-islanders-new-jerseys-pictures-1.10850738 http://cdn.newsday.com/polopoly_fs/1.10850638.1442410235!/httpImage/image.JPG_gen/derivatives/display_960/image.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Brooklyn Nets have black and white unis. It kind of makes sense to apply that color scheme to the Islanders' thirds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It kind of makes sense to apply that color scheme to the Islanders' thirds. Honestly haven't looked closely at the Isles primary duds in a long time (if ever). Do they have any black on them? Guess they must or the rule that 3rds can only make use of colors already on the primary sweaters/logo no longer is enforced. That rule also being known as the "Chicago can choose any friggin' color unis it wants because of all the friggin' colors in its logo." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet there's a black copyright or trademark symbol somewhere in there. That would be a fun way to create a loophole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure the NHL logo is on all the uniforms somewhere, which is black and silver. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WildCard Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 This guy has an interesting take on this season's outcome http://thehockeywriters.com/predicting-the-2016-eastern-conference-playoff-teams/ Atlantic: 1) Tampa Bay 2) Montreal 3) Buffalo That’s right, I’m sipping the Sabres’ Jack Eichel Kool-Aid much more than I am the Connor McDavid Edmonton Oilers’ Kool-Aid. This is primarily because of the conference differences. The East has been getting better, but the West is still superior. Buffalo with Eichel and O’Reilly as their top two centers will once again be a competitive team. While I’m not sold on Robin Lehner in net, wingers like Matt Moulson, Evander Kane and Tyler Ennis are a decent supplement for Eichel and O’Reilly. Not to mention 2014 second overall pick Sam Reinhart could potentially make the Sabres incredibly dangerous down the middle one, two and three. Defensive depth has me worried, but the firepower and new-found confidence/buzz around this city will push this team into a playoff spot in the lesser conference. Metropolitan: 1) NYI 2) NYR 3) Washington Wildcard: 1) Pittsburgh 2) CBJ As an aside, I hate whoever came up with the new division names Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJFIVEOH Posted September 27, 2015 Report Share Posted September 27, 2015 (edited) Blackhawks sign Seabrook to an 8yr/$54.8 mil extension.

IMO Keith is head and shoulders above Seabrook. The Hawks have identified their Core 4, and have them all relatively young and locked up for almost another decade. They could easily pull another 2 cups out of this before they disband Imagine a Sabres-Blackhawks Cup Final in a few years. So many story lines. Definitely not who I'd want to face if that's our first Cup appearance though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem I see for them is if they keep riding Keith and Seabrook in the playoffs the way they have been, there is no way they last to 35. Especially Keith, he was ridden hard last year.
