To be fair, I think that can be said for every NHL outdoor game that has been held in the last 10 years

Those Oiler gloves looks like they chose the color from a cigarette pack.

Fitting as they're now using a pic of McDavid in the warning on cigarette packs.

Just 2 smokes a day can have you looking like this before the age of 25

Gotta say though, without the yellow, they really look like Redwings jerseys.

100%. I’ve also never understood why Canada needs a separate special outdoor event. And not all of Canada because Toronto was allowed to play in the Winter Classic, so why? Just… why? So weird.

Very overdone and now not really that exciting.

This mostly for the local markets they're hosted in now IMO.

Really like the look of those Flames uniforms.

Agreed that the Oilers jerseys are terrible.

The "Heritage" brand is starting to look a little shop-worn. There's only so many vintage jerseys you can emulate. I wonder if the team moves to "Stadium Series" branding for the next time. More chance to experiment with modernistic styling.

McDavid finally gets a chance to play for the crest on the front for the first time...

I just saw the jerseys, so did the Oilers add McDavid's number to the crest now? I guess it seems fair for all Oilers to have 97 on the jersey just for the privilege of having him on the team.

Glad they kept the tear on the jersey, served them well so far.

It really wouldn't be a surprise if it was true.
