Habs 3rd Jersey Possibility?


Recommended Posts

Leave the blue to the Nordiques. I hope they come back here hehe.

But the white one with the blue line was awesome... where the hell did that one go?

I have had a breakthrough in my life. I know how to use Photoshop properly now, and I created a jersey for the Montreal Canadiens, a blue one, that I would love to see used as an alternate (though they won’t be using one)…

Just to be clear, this was created by somebody using Photoshop and is not official, it's just art.

That being said, I'd like to see something completely innovative if it was a 3rd alternate, but nothing tops our jerseys right now and they only need slight adjustments to keep them modern as the years go by. This isn't horrible, but mostly blue doesn't appeal to me and it's only a color swap, nothing really exciting about it.

I actually don't mind it for a 3rd jersey. Wouldn't want to see it everyday, but once and while I think it'd be unique.

Habs are too classy to push a 3rd jersey just to make money. I do not want a 3rd jersey in Mtl. Call me old school. IF they do come up with a 3rd jersey it should be a vintage one that is used on special occassions

The Habs are too rich in tradition. IF they release a 3rd jersey, it's going to be the same 3rd jersey used last year

I really like the Habs practice jerseys. I'm not sure if they still use the black ones, but when they did I liked those ones.

I don't think a black jersey would look bad either, but I'd prefer that blue one that was posted for a 3rd jersey.

It's as simple as this. You do NOT mess with perfection. The Habs jersey is the greatest sports jersey of all time. I constantly wear a Habs logo were ever I go. I live in Buffalo and take alot of guff. I don't give a hoot. I wear that logo with pride and could only imagine what a player feels like wearing one. If I were a Habs player, every time I put that sweater on I would be beaming with pride and ready to go through a burning brick wall for it.

The first hockey jersey I got when I was a kid was a number 5 white Habs jersey. I wore it every where and was never without it playing hockey in the school yard, the street or the open air rink that was right across the street from the Niagara river.

That jersey is inbeded in my mind. I like the vintage styles because they were actualy a style worn by the Habs at one time or another. Throwback yes, creating something new? NEVER.

At one time I had 15 game worn Habs jerseys, now I'm down to two, Begin and Gorges. I have three authentics with fight strap including a Guy Lafleur and an Authentic 91-92 throwback auto'd by the pocket rocket. I have four replicas that I wear and two wool sweaters made by CCM that I sleep in.

All this comes down to one thing. The classiest most recognized sports jersey on earth.

GO HABS GO.

I think the 3rd should be stay the 1940's White with Blue and red striping...or, if they do something new...like the Hamilton Blue...with an "M" on the front instead of an "H". The traditional "CH" would be on the shoulders, and have white lace on th front, and they'd keep blue pants...not go to Red as that PS depicts.

I dont think we need a 3rd jersey. Seems to me that a third jersey is a ploy by some teams to sell more jerseys. I really think we can stay with the 2 we got ...

The third from last season based on a 1940s vintage design was ok.. I think any third jersey would have the design based on the almost century of Canadiens hockey...

Why are we so afraid of a third jersey, you guys make it seem like it will taint the image of the team. It doesn't hurt to have a third jersey, especially since our Jersey has evolved drastically over last 99 years.

It's not like the Jersey will replace the others or that we'll wear it every game, I think it's an interesting idea and no it will not taint our image or take away from the tradition.

I wouldn't be opposed to a third jersey for the 100th year anniversary of the habs,but as a third jersey for other years I don't think that we need a third jersey i can see teams in the U.S. doing it because they have a tough time getting a full stadium,so they need to come up with as many promotions as possible in order to make up for lost monies.This third jersey being one of them,but since we don't have that problem being that the Montreal fan is the most loyal in the NHL.The third jersey for us is a non issue.Our jersey is beautiful just the way it is beautiful colours and a great logo that says it all. :D:D
