That would have been epic. Years and years of merciless mocking.

Toilet seat collars? They'd have never, ever, ever lived that down.

I always liked the gold as an accent colour, as it's also a "fire colour." It's a shame it's been minimized. More gold, less black.

Should have been more golden, less knight.

Yeah I was expecting worse, that's not bad really. The logo isn't great but other than that it's okay

I like that the knight shows a V for Vegas.

Simple minds enjoy simple things I guess

Carolina with the warning stripe and black looks really good. Interested to see what color of gear they rock with that.

Minnesota and Colorado look great.

Sens, Flames, and Caps among the worst in the league

I actually like Nashville's the most. Vegas' are pretty ugly. They could have nice away jerseys though with that colour scheme.

It would be money without the red. I know there's red in their shoulder patch but it looks really out of place on the jersey IMO.

Vegas' jersey reminds me of the Thrashers. Not sure why.

Wow. It's crazy how badly the NHL is handling this jersey unveiling thing.

The league's entire collection of jerseys are being renewed with a new contract, some / most uniforms are altered (albeit somewhat) and there's NO info about this event on the NHL website, or Adidas website. Impossible to know when or how to watch it, nobody knows... like this seems like a huge missed opportunity to market the league.

This could have been a televised event probably. Instead it's just... mystery.

Also, additional wow shout out to how bad the NHL website is. Are they trying to be brutal? I just don't get it.

You are not alone. It sparked the same memory when I saw the picture.

I can't say it is a bad look, but it is a bit busy for my tastes. I think it is the red striping that is the drawback.

Agreed! The jerseys were originally supposed to be unveiled at the draft then they changed it to today for some reason, yet I can't find where to watch or ever a consistent time that they will be unveiled, I've heard 6pm, 7pm and 8pm our time... looks like it'll be 8pm

Completely agree. Jerseys should ideally have a max of three colours but can sometimes get away with four. Adding red to a jersey that already has grey, gold, black, and white is unnecessary.

I like the Vegas jersey. It did immediately bring to mind Arizona though.
