Default 2017 NHL All-Star Game jerseys



https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/pas...164612987.html

Quote:
Each jersey features a band of stars that is reminiscent of the uniforms worn in NHL All-Star Games from 1989-91. Each of the 10 stars represents a decade in the 100-year history of the League. Four stars on the socks represent the four divisions in the NHL today.
The 2017 NHL All-Star patch is located on the right shoulder, while a full-color team patch for each player is found on the left shoulder. The custom font for the numbers and player names is inspired by the letters in the iconic HOLLYWOOD sign
I don't mind them, they are better then some of the previous All Star uniforms. Wish they went with Teal instead of Black though.

Really like them. Much better than the neon crap from last year.

Not big on the purple one, but meh.

odd they didn't make a grey jersey with the shade from the black one to keep it more consistent

Might be difficult to tell the teams apart for the purple vs black matchup.

Looks like they're going with a bit of an LA Kings colouring, but not quite completely. Probably to please the home town fans in LA where the event is held.

I like 'em. For reference:



The purple and gold make sense for LA as well.

As for the description, I thought it was a bit rich:

So THAT'S why there are four stars... how inspiring

Soo.... plain block letters? Done.
