0110: Flashback to 1995

Look familiar? The Pittsburgh Penguins wore a similar third jersey from 1995 to 2002. Alan John Herbert has created a bit of an update to that design for today's concept. We should turn it into a game. Can you spot all the differences?

I may be alone in this, but I still like the RoboPenguin™ more than the current logo. Love that jersey and design though.

I was never a fan of the original; the yellow and grey in the back of the jersey between the numbers looks awkward. I wasn't a big fan of the two different sleaves either. I do like this concept better than the original...but maybe the grey all around the torso without yellow, and have the left sleave the same as the right...? Excellent work.

This looks great! The grey and gold are switched on the arms and shoulders and they use different logos.

I really really like this! Pitts color scheme is hard to design a solid jersey for but this works!

Personally, i would make the yellow stripes on the left sleeve grey like in the original jersey, but thats just my opinion

Looks better with the angry penguin as opposed to the pigeon. Though it still has too much of a 90's vibe to it.

They really used two different sleeve cuffs? And for almost 10 years? Ouch.

They're coompletely different. I grew up seeing robo-penguin on Pittsburg's jerseys. I think it's a cool logo, but I would like to see them return to their mid-late 70's navy and light blue uniforms.

i never was too much of a fan of this jersey back in the day, but i still do like the RoboPenguin. This jersey has way too much yellow for my tastes.

Like the Yellow Gold coming back but BIG NO!! I do NOT want anything associated with the Howard Baldwin era Penguins. NO PJ's uniforms, NO PIGEON logo, nothing Howard Baldwin related!!
