The logo looks like it took some time but the rest of the jersey looks like it was put together in a matter of minutes. This would have been a great "Freak Out Friday"
I find little wrong with the jersey itself(except it looks like the Hurricanes), however the biggest thing is the logo. Now I do think a new logo would be a good thing for this team( the current logo is outdated) but this isn't quite the way to go. There is just too much going on, trying to mash in as much as possible while becoming overly busy. Another thing wrong is the pitchfork. This team is not named for the demonic hell blazing entities, but for the mythical creature known as the Jersey Devil. A different direction is what this team needs, and a return to green wouldn't hurt either.
I'm not in love with the logo, but it does look good. It would make for a nice secondary logo. Speaking of alternates, the black jersey does look a lot like a Canes third jersey, as stated above. Red always suits the Devils better, anyway.
The logo is very creative and Michael obviously put a lot of effort into it. I like how it creates a Devil head.
I wish I could find something to like about this jersey. It's clear that some effort went into the logo, but it just doesn't seem to fit with the Devils' timeless identity (I find the set and logos far from outdated). As for the jersey, the colors do remind me of the Hurricanes, though, and I'm not a big fan the font (the numbers looking to be the same as the Coyotes').
It's nice to see a Devils concept on here, but as with teams like Detroit and Montreal, 90% of the time people make concepts for them, they don't turn out as good as the originals.
The logo reminds of the USF Bulls logo...I don't mind the colour scheme and the white jersey actually looks pretty good. I appreciate the attempt to get the NJ bit with devil horns etc but I think there's a bit too much going on and it draws away from identifying the N and the J.
In isolation, I would have no idea which team this is for!
It looks like a bull to me
I have a hard time seeing the N in the logo. Also, as many others have said, the black looks like Carolina's third. NJ has to have a red jersey, it just doesn't seem right any other way.
Not often that I disagree with the crowd on these jerseys, however I LOVED this when it came up on my screen. Could it use some tweaks? Yes. Little ones to the logo. I LOVE the colour scheme though. And throw in a red one as well. AMAZING!!
It kinda looks like the Dallas Stars old Moo-terus logo.
Sadly, I agree with dwlonline - def initely the Moo-terus Stars logo.
