This just in: new Penguins uniforms not a hideous abomination to the senses!

That's right, folks, the Penguins have escaped the new uniform storm relatively unscathed. Sure, I think that basically all of the 'new and improved' uniforms look like muscle shirts that someone has stuffed socks under, but when you get right down to it: they're Penguins uniforms. As long as the guys are on the ice playing their best, they could be wearing an old burlap sack that some ADD 4 year-old has scribbled a penguin on the front of with a sharpie and I'd be okay with it.

A little over a month and it'll be show time. I can hardly wait.

12 days to preseason!

If the dark ones are just the simple inverse they really will look like penguins with white undersides and everything!

I still say Conks will look smashing in them <3

They are beautiful, Elly. The best outside of the Original Six teams right now. The Penguins will be a joy to watch this season, both for their play and their uniforms.

I miss our green sweaters already.

Elly said...

'Drea: Yeah, they're fairly simple and clean, which is nice.

Steph: .....

Teebz: I agree! They have beautiful jerseys, beautifully skilled players, now just a nice, shiny, beautiful silver cup... ;)

Kirsten: Awww, maybe they'll bring them back some day for a retro look?
