The final lighthouse jersey will still be “fleshed out”.

Looks like the final jersey design is still subject to some change, which I think many expected and some even hoped for. Per the article below, “The jersey design is still a year away from hitting the ice and in the interim, the corresponding pants, gloves and helmet kit will be fleshed out alongside the final jersey design.”

Edit: I suppose you could interpret that sentence to mean that other parts of the kit will be fleshed out and the jersey is final, but I’m guessing the former.

Do we just have ugly colors and logos?

With all the complaints about the jerseys up for vote and most Reddit submitted designs getting somewhat mixed reviews, do we just have crap to work with? I’ve never loved teal, and our logos are just fine when I remove any bias. Im personally a fan of the dark navy/Isles design similar to the stadium series. If only we had won that game I think others would love it too.

I will say that I think orange and blue are a great base.

Food at UBS Club tonight

I know this isn’t really an islanders question, but this group may know the answer.

I’m fortunate enough to attend several games a year at the UBS Club which has, imo, a pretty nice buffet. I’ll be at the Nate Bargatze show tonight in the same seats and I’m wondering what to expect from the food. I know that the offerings can be different, probably worse, but has anyone been to a show like this and can confirm? Thanks.

Chevy integrated dashcam

Been using external dash cams in my cars for a while, but my Suburban just received a software update that allows me to use the four external cameras as a dashcam system. I need a usb drive and it only records in 2 hour loops, but otherwise this seems like a pretty cool feature. Two questions:

One, I know the importance of a quality “high endurance” micro sd card for the dash cam. GM recommends a 64gb usb drive and I’ll get a good brand, but do “high endurance” versions even exist? Anything else I need to consider?

Two, has anyone used this sort of system? Happy with it compared to the external cams? Having all four cameras plus recording while parked (if alarm goes off) is a nice upgrade.

ETA: it’s called “Surround Vision Recorder” and “Security Recording”

New software update includes activation of Cabin Glance and Surround Vision

2026 Suburban

Just received this notification, but have not yet installed. I’ve been waiting for the cabin glance, and the Surround Vision seems interesting but not sure how it will actually work. I already have a separate dash cam.

Household cleaner(s) to prep a tire for new tire shine?

I've been using Meguiars Endurance for a while now and have been pretty happy, but saw lots of comments about CarPro Darkside and decided to give it a try. My understanding is that I need to clean the tire pretty thoroughly before making the switch. Since I'd rather not spend more money on a dedicated tire cleaner, is there anything around the house I can use? My car wash is meguiar's gold class and I also have their ultimate all wheel cleaner, plus a stuff(ish) brush. I've also heard that dawn dish soap could do the job, as well as isopropyl alcohol but I don't think I like that idea. Any tips are appreciated.

As a side note, a while back I was convinced to try carpo perl, which I really did NOT like despite all the positive recommendations. Hoping Darkside is better.

What would happen if the UBUG played in a cup winning game?

Just a dumb question I was debating. Let’s say the UBUG got called in and that team wins the cup in that game. Does the goalie get to hoist the cup? How would the whole thing go down? How would the players react?

Mechanic forgot three lug nuts

Been using the same mechanic for about 6 years. They are VAG/Audi specific and do good work for a little less than the dealer. My most recent visit was frustrating for a few different reasons, but the major one was they forgot 3 of the 5 lug nuts on one wheel. It was discovered a few days and several miles later when I took it to my wheel guy to fix a bent wheel. He said that he didn’t see any damage because the two remaining lugs were on pretty tight.

How mad should I be and what would be an appropriate response from them? They apologized and drove the lugnuts over same day. I told them I appreciate that but that this was a serious mistake and they need to do something else if they want to keep me as a customer. I was told they are speaking with the owner and they will do “something” but I don’t get know what will be.

I don’t want my emotion to get the best of me but I really don’t think this is an apologize and move on situation. TIA for any thoughts.

How can I tell if my son’s glove is too big?

My 12 yo son just received his 11.5” Rawlings HOH Mark of a Pro. He is super excited but we are both afraid the glove is too big. He is small for his age and I know the wrist is adjustable, but it seems like his fingers don’t go deep enough in to the glove? How do I confirm if it’s the correct size? It’s hard to tell while the glove is so stiff. I’m not a ball player myself so I don’t know.

It’s model SP204-19ROCB. There is an 11.25” SPNP2-7ROTE for sale too - will that fit differently? Will an R9 fit differently? The description in the website makes them seem like the same sizing but I’m not sure.

(Sorry for the bold text - not sure how to get rid of it).
