Sens Tease Third Jersey
Friday · Nov 14 · 2008 | 5:19 PM PSTThe Ottawa Senators are using the splash page of their official web site to tease their new black third jersey. There's a shoulders-up picture of Daniel Alfredsson donning his new duds.
;)
Got some interesting striping going on around the sleeve there. And we now know that the primary logo will be featured on the shoulders. And based on the "C" it looks like this jersey will use the same lettering style as the regular sweaters.
And maybe it's just me and the fact that I'm not a native French speaker but "Retour en force du noir" just doesn't have the same ring as "Back in Black."
Don't forget, I'll be leaking a full (if grainy) view of the Sens' new third jersey during one of the next three Live Chats scheduled between now and Tuesday. The Senators will officially unveil their third jersey on Saturday, November 22.

So it looks like you have those grainy leaks for almost every team. I'd love to see you post all the leaks, including the bad-quality ones once it is officially released; it's going to be fun to see how far it varies (or how shockingly accurate it is) to the real deal.
The sparky houlder gives me hope for something similar to the old Sens 3rds..I just took mine off 5 minutes ago, probably my favourite jersey in hockey. PLEASE tell me the 2D logo was used instead of SENS
Shoulder up it looks like a pretty sharp looking sweater. But I agree with Jeff, the logo is going to make all the difference. I'm not sure about the whole "SENS" thing, but we might all be wrong it could look good. I personally think that the Lightning actually pulled it off pretty well.
If there is enough red around the Senators new third, I will be able to forgive them for once again giving the NHL another black jersey. My guess is it will have the Sens wordmark on the front as previously rumoured, but I hope I am wrong about that.
yeah....im not liking it. the funky striping makes it a doomed jersey.
That striping looks like another Reebok crap-fest. Does the league need another black jersey anyway?
I'd like to say that I'm a native french speaker and the signification is the same as in english... '' a powerful back in black'' just mean the same thing than ''back in black''
Judging by what we see there, I'm gonna take a wild guess that the striping with be like the Caps. If it is it may turn out really nice IMO.
from the looks of the shoulder patch we are getting a different logo but hopfully not the word sens
Looks good to me, but I really want the 2D logo instead of "Sens". That logo eclipses the old 2D one so much it isn't funny.
Can't wait to see what this looks like when it comes out. I was amp'd when the Hurricanes and my Blues 3rds came out, I have considered getting this one too. I think I'm going to like the striping that goes down the side, it'll be interesting to see what comes out of this one.
I agree with Jeff though, their old 3rd was pretty sweet with the gold foil on the bottom of the jersey.
I'm getting real tired of hearing that lame 'Back in black' gimmick.
btw it isnt the same... back in black in french is retour en noir...
One of the best mustaches currently in the league.
Anyone else thing Alfredson's stash looks stunning?
lets hope the jersey is as nice as the stash.
Doesn't look promising. Could be one of the uglier ones.
At least my Leafs 3rds are a work of art
love the sens in black
looks like the same striping pattern as the washington capitals. as said above.
gotta love alfie's sweet 'stache!
that looks like it is going to be nioce jersey
I was going to say, what is that on the other shoulder, but clued in that it was just the N off the EASTON stick he has over his shoulder. At first glance, I swore it was going to say SEN or SENS on the shoulder instead of the front, which A, would look TERRIBLE and B give hope that it wouldn't show up on the front.
That's interesting; I was thinking more Blues striping.
Well, there goes any hope of them having a traditional style jersey. What's shown so far isn't pretty, but hopefully it looks better in full.
