I’m one of the few New York Islanders fans that actually like the Brooklyn black third jersey that was introduced in 2015. Something an all black jersey just appeals to me.
But I get why most fans didn’t like it. Already the move to Brooklyn was tough enough The Islanders were leaving their traditional home on Long Island to move closer to Ranger territory in search of a modern new home. Every time the Islanders wore the Brooklyn blacks we were reminded that they aren’t home anymore.
When Addidas took over the NHL jerseys manufacturing all third jersey’s were dumped.
