Steve Dangle, Adam Wylde and Jesse Blake share their thoughts on the new Utah Hockey Club Jerseys and Center Ice Logo.
Do you want to see a video of the Utah HC? Because I know we can run this because it's promotional. And I ran this by Jesse.Couple of promotional videos.Yeah, we can run this one.
Just without sound.
The first one is the jerseys on the ice. A lot of people criticize jerseys before they see them on the ice, and I've made that mistake before, and boy, am I wrong? So I want to see them on the ice. So, Jesse, I just sent you the video for the ice one, and then we're going to do center ice because they revealed their center ice thing, lest it be leaked and somebody have to be fired, a lot of the Panthers.
And not get a ring or maybe get one.
So which one do you want to play for?
Let's do the jerseys first because they were just tweeted five minutes ago. Okay.
First sweaters in team history. No sound. So Steve, you can talk about it. Describe it for all of the audio.
All right, here we go.
Blazers.
You're going to do this as like cherry? Describe the name.
All right, there we go. We got a fucking We got the Utah team over here. Keep it going. Okay, so they got the inaugural season patch, right? Because they got here. Well, they came from Arizona, right? But so here's a Jersey that's zooming in on it. Now, they zoom out, right? So you can see it. Utah, U-T-A-H. That's how you spell it. They got them stopping. Look at that. They took that from Rock 'Em Sock 'Em 8.
Mountains, they got those there.
Can you go back to the final frame right before the down. My down shoes. Just pause it there because the guys are skating towards the camera.
When it comes back. All right.
It'll be like second 30 or something like that.
Okay. Here's the jersey.
Stop there. That's the jersey. Okay.
I already knew. It's a black jersey.
That's it. It's the Tampa Bay Lightning Jersey, which is the take off on the leaves jersey.
It's a black jersey at the bottom. There's a white stripe, thin little black stripe, and then a What are we going to call that? Powder blue? Powder blue. Powder blue stripe.
La chargers.
At the elbow, there's a thick blue stripe, little black one, thick white one, little black one, thick blue one Nothing much.
It is the most E-A-S-H-L-ass jersey I think I've ever seen.
But that is because they literally-They didn't have time.
Listen. They didn't have time.
Remember we had the conversation with the Carolina jerseys? Are these jerseys good or do we just like red?
You know what I mean? Yeah. Where it said Canes. Yeah.
Black jerseys look awesome. That's why nearly every team has one. Yeah. Right? So if you're going to be milk toast because you don't have a bloody name, You might as well look like Team Iceland from the Mighty Ducks movies, right? And have this Gunner Stahl ass jerseys and look cool, and it'll be a fun little collector's item.
Because it's only going to last the year. I think it might be the third jersey next year, but it's like the PWA. They didn't have time to get the names out there. Here's the problem, guys. It's not that they don't have time to come up with a good name. They don't have time to print them. They don't have time to get the jerseys and the equipment and everything ready for market, for sale for for the teams, for all that thing. It takes more time. I bet they already know the name right now, but that'll be released. Maybe we'll be able to call them something other than Utah HC come start of the season. I think that's a great time to reveal a logo that That will be available for purchase next year and a great time to say, Here's our new brand.
Oh, you think they're going to do it in the next six weeks?
I think they would do it opening night.
What? The reprint?
Yeah. Well, not the reprint. They're not going to wear it on the jersey, but it's like, Here's our name.
Really? Yeah, I don't really know. Why not? I think they're going to sit on it. Do you know something? It might make the decision by them.
Do you know something?
I don't know something. I don't actually know something.
Just what I would do. Here I am making it about me. Here we go. My book needed to be sent to the printer three months ahead of time. There was a moment where they're like, literally, if you don't get this to us right now, it's not coming.
We got to delay it a year.
Yeah. And that's when it needs to be sent to the printer, which means I needed to be done at least, I don't know, 30, 40, 50 days before that. So I can only imagine how many NHL jerseys you would have to print and how far ahead of time and all the shirts and all the blah, blah, blah, blah, blah When you know that everybody at the Delta Center on night one needs to have a jersey on, they're so pumped to have that team there.
Yeah. I don't know, man. I don't know.
Are any of the teams new jerseys out? The other day, I went to go buy two new leaf jerseys because I wanted them for my videos, and I couldn't find the new ones.
The new Fanatics ones? I haven't seen them. The NHL store, did you go there?
I went to the leafs one. You would think if anyone would have them, it's them.
I would have thought the NHL store would have them. I don't know. I don't know when those come out. Isaletics or something. Those guys that run the YouTube channel, we need to know. We need to know. All that to say, meh, but we knew it. Jesse, let's look at center ice when you get the opportunity because... By the way, a lot of people are saying the Utah Jersey is a direct rip off of the WHL's Winnipeg ice, which I will also send to Jesse. And Steve probably knows from his brain what that looks like. But if you're a normal human being like us, you probably don't necessarily know. So here's what the center ice looks like.
The Winnipeg ice stole their team from Kootenay. The Kootenay ice.
Okay, so here's the-Oh, there it is. Here's them painting the logo. Look at that.
We're Dawn Cherry on this one again.
Inaugural season logo. That's cool.
Yeah, it's a cool logo. And I like that Utah is sticking with the trend this year of let's make the pocket center ice as hard to identify as possible.
Oh, here's the thing. What age were you when you learned that the ice logos aren't painted on and they're actually just printed and then stuck underneath the ice?
So that wasn't the case when we were growing up.
I've never seen this.
They were actually painted before. They used to be painted. In the '90s, they were painted. Now they are. I don't know when they started this.
If you go to your regular rink, it's going to mostly be painted. But for a long time now, the NHL, the most high-end rinks have switched to, you print this out, you put it together, you stick it under the ice, and then it stays there all season.I have no idea.You put the ice over it, and then you keep scraping over it all season long. I had no idea. No? Oh, well, there you go.
I've never seen it before.
I've seen a bunch of TikToks, and there's always comments about like, I never knew that.
So this is a cool crest. I wonder if that logo is Center Ice. Is it that little blue dot above? Is that where? Okay, that's where it is. I was like, Exactly. Where the hell is Center Ice? Where is Center Ice? Yeah, they would have been better making Center Ice a white-Red or anything. You're right. Where is Center Ice? It's just above the Utah Hockey Club logo. Yeah, that's right here. Yeah, that's Center Ice. Okay. Can you zoom in?
I can't see it. I'll show you. It's right there. Oh, there it is. That's what it looks like.
When you zoom out, you can't bloody see it.
Well, you're not looking at it from up there. It's also-Yeah, you are. No, the people who need to see it are on the ice. Yeah, they'll see it down there. Why do you need to-The fans don't need to see it? For what?
What do you need to see? What do you need for what?The little dot. You don't see the pocket center ice for space off?
I want the center ice nipple.
At what point in the game is knowing where that dot is relevant?
I need to know where it looks.
Name the parts of a hockey game.
I'm brand new to hockey. Maybe I'm going to be looking behind me. Sheldon. At the person. No. You know what?
All the time-Name one. Well, we lost the pocket center ice last year, and we didn't win.Yeah, but you can see the line is what's important.
The red line is there.
I need to know where David Camp is starting overtime. All right?
It's important. They're relevant. Don't give me sound. You can see it. Don't give me sound. It was funny. You can completely see it. It was funny. I like that they're going an our girl logo. Yeah.
I think it's cool. But now you get to make all your merch black, which is cool and everyone likes. You can wear your hockey merch anywhere, basically. No, it's fine. Considering they don't have a name, it's fine. You know what I mean? There you go. Very cool. Yep. Yay.
You It seemed indifferent.
Yeah, because they're called Utah.
H-c.
No. They're called Utah.
They're called Utah, H-C? No. No, but they are, though. What is this point?
Where are you going with this? They are called Utah, H-C. Why are you Like the Toronto Maple leaves are Toronto Maple leaves' H-C. They are Toronto Maple leaves Hockey Club.
Like last year, Hey, we're PWHL Toronto.
Okay. Well, yeah, because they didn't have time.
No, you're Toronto. You're just playing that you're Toronto of the PWHL. I'm going to call them Toronto. You're Toronto of the PWHL. I'm not saying the league name before both of you play.
I don't understand.
I'm going to call them Ta. I'm watching a PWHL game between Boston and Toronto. I'm not watching PWhL Boston play PWhL Toronto.
What's next? Stop it.
