That Blackhawks jersey is awesome. As the Islanders showed, it doesn't make for too exciting of an alternate - but add colour to this design and it's a great option. The outdoor jerseys seem to have become the concept car of jerseys. Show something wild, get feedback and package together something palatable and more on-brand for the larger audience.
Also love seeing Boston finally bring back a bit of brown, even if you can't see it too well in any pic they've taken. I'm assuming they considered the stadium lights when picking colours, and hopefully (unlike the Avs) they pick appropriately when they bring threads like this back inside. But during the outdoor game it should look right - and it will be glorious. I don't understand how a team that derived their name from brown and uses imagery of a bear doesn't wear brown more often.
