I've always heard of the stripes referred to as "horizontal piping", so my bad if I'm wrong on that front although I was entirely unaware of specific definitions for such things.
Fact remains, the iconic hockey jerseys that have stood the test of time go for elegance and simplicity above all else. I can't understand why we would include a hard Black/White/Yellow/Black set of stripes. It cuts the red out of those parts of the jersey entirely - and no other jerseys seem to do the same (except of course our poorly received 3rd jerseys that featured the Calgary font).
If you're going for horizontal striping/piping/whatever, this is what should be targeted:
