It should be. Chicago has the best crest design of all the teams.

Better not be Seattle.

And the crest is too plain and simple for my liking.

I think if you just took literally everything red off of the Seattle jersey (including the eye in the logo) the uniform looks considerably better.

Really? I couldn't disagree more... I think it's one of their strongest design elements.

I can already tell you guys are gonna hate the top eight, LOL.

I will say I have a huuuuuuuuge gap between teams 11 and 12.

Interesting list. I’ll say you are underrating Buffalo and Dallas while I am surprised to not see Washington down the bottom.

I’m guessing you’ll have something random like Carolina as #1.

Carolina is not #1. I do like all three of their jerseys, though.

I have a feeling that my top-3 and especially my #1 pick will be wholly uncontroversial.

You'll see Washington soon. I wish they'd bring back their blue checkmark jerseys.

Btw, hot take, and you all are going to hate me for this: these are my favourite Sabres jerseys!



Just kidding... although I do actually think they're kind of cool. A solid 6/10. I own a Vanek slug jersey.

But these are actually the best Sabres jerseys. By quite a bit.

Wow, is this thread so generous to Edmonton for hosting pandemic hockey?
Between the orange base jersey and the two tone dark blue orange / colour abomination, they should be fighting for the absolute worst with Anaheim ... and winning (winning the poll , by losing in real life)

Agreed and I don’t think it is even close.

Chicago would move up a couple places on the list if they still had their black uniform, which IMO is the best they've ever worn by quite a bit.

Winnipeg does not fare very well on my list. Spoiler alert.

I'd say someone ranking the Jets anywhere above 25th is fairly generous.

Everything about the Nordiques was good. The Jersey design, the shade of blue they used, the logo, the name, everything.

See this is where I fall outside the new thinking, any team that adopts black as the basis for anything in a uniform loses me. The only black hockey uniforms should be the Bruins. Just like the only Orange uniform should be the Flyers.
