Adidas getting their bearings is BS as Reebok is owned by Adidas. Not sure why NHL is doing away with 3rd, maybe it has hit saturation point and bringing back to 1 will get all those with 3rds to conform to the new home (and vise versa in YEG).
I like the orange but also like the traditional blue so I'm not overly fussed. One area it will look food is on TV if the whole arena is wearing the orange jerseys, the dark blues don't stand out that much on TV compared to the sea of red in YYC.

The "getting their bearings" angle is simply they want Adidas to sell jerseys. They want the only jerseys being produced to be the new Adidas jerseys and nothing else. That way if anyone wants to buy a jersey, they have to get the new design. Not entirely stupid strategy.
As for the oranges, personally I love them in person but I hate them on TV. This is entirely because I'm inept when it comes to figuring out how to work the HD on my TV and still watch games in standard def. I can't read the numbers on the orange when in SD. I know I'm an idiot with this, but it drives me nuts. Laziness plays a large part in this, but I'll certainly miss the blues.
