New Devils Jerseys

I also missed the start of the sth event but from a distance it looked like there was a very faint outline of a Welsh dragon on the back (not sure about the front). It was very faint so I am wondering if my eyes were deceiving me - I think it will be even clearer on the white shirt with grey detail. Could anyone else see it? Wondering if I’ve read this thread and seen something that isn’t there!
Just like the red Merv Priest picture from the superleague years l posted earlier in this thread, that pops.
Like you Kev, I'm reserving judgement until l actually see it, if people who are at the open training night can't make out the design though from the stands that in its self is not a good sign and suggests this year's design is a weak one.
Hopefully the new social media guy who a few people seem to think is the second coming of christ posts something on the website soon.

All 3 are nice to be fair. I like that the main sponsor blends in more to the jersey than last year. I prefer the location of the green over last year. The writing on the back is more CHL style, and I like the CHL jerseys so thats another plus for me. And not only is the dragon much bigger than I thought on both sides of the jersey but it also says the word dragon on the front 
. White and black look very good to me too, happy days. Now the only thing left to wait for is the hockey itself.

The STH event was OK - good to chat with the players after training and the interviews with them on the ice by Kelman.
But unless there was something I missed before the training started then the jersey side of stuff was a complete bust.
Couldn't see anything on the ice in terms of detail - understandably. Nothing in bar on a hangar even, or a manikin...nothing in the shop
Jersey reveal happened at 8 on the shop website. Let's just say I'm glad I went for the training event and to see friends/players.
No details of the STH jersey.
On the jersey itself: it's odd that I'm taken by the white jersey only. Usually I don't like the white one. Think it's that the dragon is clearly visible on the white - bit more POP. Whereas on the black and red I can tell something is there but not exactly clear - I keep seeing a chicken rather than a dragon! One thing that jumps at me is the colour of the shoulders - green on the white would take it to the next level; red on the black likewise. Noted the change in colour on the sponsors logos to make them blend better on the red and black.
Think it will be one of those ones that grow on me once I see it in person.
Still end up with one of each colour FFS!
But all that aside - really got the bug back now - looking forward to the season starting up again!

I love my jerseys, I've lost count now of how many I've got BUT I won't be adding this one to collection I'm afraid.
I'm not a fan of the low number position on arm and it's pretty boring, plain and dare I say it cheap looking.
Maybe in the flesh it looks different but the pics aren't grabbing me. Sorry folks.

You couldn’t make out the dragon silhouette on the red or black shirts from the stands. Having just seen the white jersey for the first time, my first impression is that it would have been a far nicer shirt without the grey silhouette. I don’t like that one at all, regardless of whether it’s a dragon or not. Best ever shirts? Nah, not by a country mile. I wish we’d get back to the simpler designs like the 2014-15 shirts. That was a classic. One positive, at least we haven’t ruined the red/black shirts with a bloody great big white patch for the sponsors logo. That’s been blended in nicely this year.
