Heritage jerseys for the playoffs?

Canadian Guy · 04-04-2012, 08:36 PM

Any chance we see them in action?

I guess the team hasn't done well with them on however, might be a bad idea.

I'd like to see the them rock them though. Chances aren't too high we'll get past Boston, might as well look good if we're going to get bumped.
Or look good if we pull out a major upset!

I'd like it

I don't think record with a jersey really matters, if they were worn for equal games, the record would probably be similar

Does anyone have our record while wearing our heritage jerseys?

Curious to see how we do with them on -- somewhat superstitious.

We only won 1 game during the regular season in them I believe. I doubt they wear them.

I may be totally making this up in my mind, but for some reason I remember that teams are only permitted to wear their primary home and away jerseys for playoff games.

The record was 2-5-2

However we had 4 games against teams we struggle with, and none against teams we always play well as us

Well, looks like I'm not wearing the heritage jersey for the playoffs.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but when the Kings current home jerseys were first introduced, it was as an alternate. They were used in the playoffs as the home jersey that same season.

You are correct. I think the right format is that a team can only wear one uniform for each home and away during the playoffs, not a 3rd one. So the Senators can pick between the regular or Heritage. I'm pretty sure they'll go with the regular as per the side images on their website.

Haha I'll yield to you there as I don't really remember.

Semi off-topic, but I wish teams would go back to wearing white at home and colours on the road. Especially when teams do the whole white towel thing (which the Sens better be doing this year, BTW), it's much more of a white-out effect when the home team is also wearing their whites.

The Scotiabank Place looks amazing filled with red. Keep it that way.

I find most teams have a colour as the colour they are known as (instead of white), so I like it this way

I wonder if we could get people to entice the organization to wear the heritage jersey for the playoffs...

With white jerseys at home you get to see a diversity in the away jerseys at your home arena though.

Dissagree! Ottawa is a black first color with the '92 Sens & the Original Rough Riders!!

Agree! Back in Black, as the Sens themselves promoted everytime they came back with a black jersey!

I go to ScotiaBank Place to see the Senators, not the away team.

Red is the way to go.

From a television standpoint. When all the fans wear the heritage jersey the arena looks empty. especially on standard def.

We have faced the bruins once in the heritage jerseys. lost 5-2.

i love the heritage jersey. maybe save for round 2
