New Uniforms Unveiled

The PHL and Duke Sports continued to roll out new uniforms just days after the 2008 finals ended. First, the league unveiled new uniforms for the all-star game. As usual, the all-star uniforms are less traditional with asymmetrically coloured sleeves in red, white, and blue.


The same day the all-star uniforms were unveiled, the Denver Bulls and Edmonton Northern Lights both unveiled the retro uniforms they will wear for the 2008 Holiday Classic game in Denver. The visiting Northern Lights will wear their white jerseys originally worn from the 1980s and '90s, while the host Bulls will wear red jerseys based on those worn by the team in Buffalo during the 1940s and '50s.


Finally, four teams unveiled new alternate jerseys for the 2008-09 season. Houston unveiled a navy jerseys with an oil worker's helmet on the front, LA will bring back their popular look from the 1970s dynasty years, Pittsburgh's new jersey is an updated version of their original gold jerseys, while Winnipeg will wear a new red jersey with the secondary "covered wagon" logo on the front. Each team will wear their new uniform ten times during the season.

  2. It's nice to see the return of the old school Northern Lights look.

    I'm not a fan of the logo on the front of the Houston jersey. The helmet blends in, and doesn't have the definition to convey "helmet". To me, it looks a lot like it's trying to be a mountain.

    1. Yeah, now that you mention it, it does look like a modernized version of the Colorado Rockies (NHL) uniform.

    2. Houston's logo is now updated. I admit the first version was a little rushed. Personally, I like the gray/silver for the helmet better than the blue. Thanks for the feedback!
