Update to Jerseys

Will there ever be updates done to the "anaheim_ducks_road.png" style jerseys and fonts? I dont like facegen and always turn it off. They're almost all several years out of date and Vegas and Seattle don't even have them.

They may make a return eventually. The NHL's licensed assets page stopped offering the jerseys in that format for a while, but we left the existing ones in the game for the people that liked that format. They eventually returned to the NHL site, but with a bunch of changes (different sizes, resolution, uniform pose, etc.) that it'll require a lot of image editing to produce a working replacement for our old files. I've tried it a few times, but what I've been able to come up took me a long time to do and could best be described as "blurry garbage." I'll keep at it, though, and if I can figure out a way to do it that produces good results and doesn't require dozens of hours of work, we'll replace the old images (and add VGK/SEA).
