They blew it with the bottom, trying too hard to fit into the reverse retro theme, but the rest looks really nice. Glad they didn't reverse the horsehead colours as every mock up looked bad.

Hmm, I'm a little disappointed. By itself, the jersey is good... but by swapping the bottom red stripe for black, they just made it look like this jersey:


There's already been so many "Calgary Canucks" jokes...

It's sharp, but I wish they changed one of the red stripes to white instead.

The "C" on the shoulders is now white instead of red, and the base of the jersey below the striping is now black instead of red.

It’s glorious

Those are terrible! I hope this is a one year thing. The striping ruins the entire look and I just don't like that logo. 0/10 from me.

[N-E-B]

The black bottom is a downgrade but the white C on the shoulder is an upgrade. I dig it.

Something about the stripes makes me think of the Hitmen jersey of that era.

They really did the minimum to make this "reverse", but I'm okay with that.

Interested to see what the kit looks like. Red pants and gloves?

[SuperMatt18]

I think it's okay.

A white version of the jersey, or even some of the black designs on here looked better.

I actually like the waste striping better than the original but think there should have been a white stripe too.

Also don't really get why the yellow stripe at the bottom looks gold instead of Flames yellow.

Edit: Looks like the gold look is maybe just lighting in the video this still looks right.

[Ashasx]

eh I think these miss the mark. not a fan.

So, take my word back. Carolina and the Avs look dumb. Minnesota really only nailed it for the teams that moved by recolouring the current logo in old colours, if we are talking proper reversing.

Adding grey was for the teams that they didn’t know what to do with.

Flames just did retro and forgot the reverse part, outside of a red for black hemline color change from the original.

Here is a breakdown of the inspiration vs the reverse retro for each team:

What's with the hoods?

[AustinL_NHL]

Has anyone ever had an unctrollable, never-ending orgasm before?

Because that is the exact thing I am experiencing right now staring at that jersey.

BLASTY. IS. BACK.

[btimbit]

That's a bit of a miss. Some of the fan proposals in this thread are way way better

[Ashasx]

The Kings and the Wild especially look great. Minnesota should really go with this colour scheme full time.

[Redliner]

[Zarley]

It’s better / cleaner looking than the original. The only miss for me is that the first outline around the white C on the shoulder should be red instead of black, matching the number font. Otherwise looks good!
