What makes a great/bad college hockey jersey?

I like the laces too!!

AAron- did you add the nameplate?  I didn't think it was there when I first saw your post...

[Trotsky]

Get rid of the logo and replace with a simple PENN STATE, and they'd have something.

No, I didn't add the nameplate. The aways have no name on the back and an embroidered Nittany Lion logo at the top. The whites have a nameplate. And, to answer your other question/comment, they will have helmets like PSU football helmets that are white with the blue stripe down the middle.

Solid. Really like those jerseys. Especially the away blues. They're really sharp.

I suppose you want that all caps, arranged in an arc.  Any particular font?::whistle::

No arc.  Just "STATE."  Basic font.

The classic look:

For comparison, here's what they had hanging on the wall-of-jerseys at the Frozen Four in Tampa (lower left).  I assume it's what Penn St. has been wearing in the AHCA.



Me, I'm still wondering why all 18 variants of Michigan aren't up there.

I'm glad I am not alone in thinking Michigan's rebranding every season and different jersey for almost every game is ridiculous. One thing I liked other than the simplicity of the Penn State design is that it did not come with four forms like Michigan this coming season.

Yes, that was the ACHA era jersey. The home jerseys looked like:

They had a whole wall for that down the hall.

I like either the jersey with just the logo, or Trotsky's proposed jersey with just the text, better than this one with the logo and the text, which I think is too busy.  The only way that doesn't look bad (see also the RIT jersey on the top left) is if the text is integrated into the logo (see the LSSU jersey on the bottom right).

Christ on a crutch, those helmets look awful.  Michigan is a special case; otherwise don't wear football helmets to a hocket game!

Also, eye black.

The eye black has an explanation. This photo is taken from the game that Penn State played at Citizens Bank on the 2012 Winter Classic rink. Most players in outdoor games use eye black. It supposedly reduces glare from the sun and lights off of the ice surface.

Given that context the photo lacked, I withdraw my mockery of the eye black. As for the stripe, I refer the right honourable gentleman to the comments jtwcornell91 made some moments ago.
