Could be wrong, but everything about that pic from NHL looks shady... don't believe it's real.

I've learned from the Calgary Flames that it's best to wait and hear it from them then jump on a rumor.
Not sure if you would remember but, in 2007/08 when every team in the NHL re-designed their jerseys for Reebok, EA's game had every jersey in the game locked beforehand. Somehow the code leaked, and that's how each jersey ended up being revealed. Some teams had already unveiled their new looks but the vast majority did not. If EA didn't get in trouble for that, then they won't get in trouble for this.

If the jersey is indeed fake, someone went through A LOT of trouble to ensure it looked legit, including some pretty impressive photoshop work and creating a brand new shoulder patch. Not to mention that said jersey seems to match what was rumored on this site. It's also worth noting that this jersey pattern isn't available in the create a team mode in NHL 14. So the "photoshop" job wasn't just limited to adding a logo. Again, a lot of work to just troll everyone.
