I sure hope so! I think the 3rd jersey needs to be used way more often in hockey, and the NHL adding 'heritage' jerseys means teams could be rocking 4 or more jerseys a year. A league where every team has well-designed primaries that fit their brand and can roll out great looking 3rd and heritage jerseys on occasion would be great. If fans are buying more 3rd jerseys than your typical home, roll out a white one in it's place next year and ask the fans what they think!
My feeling watching the NBA is that teams are constantly trying out new things with their fans. Sometimes it seems to be wreaking havoc on their brand (Milwaukee), but with others their brand is stronger with each new piece they roll out (Golden State)
