I like the look of them even better here, especially the home jersey.

Barclay Plager’s hockey card vibes on the blue! And the white reminds me of bobby orr’s stanley cup winning goal!

Very old school!

Love them, that shade of blue looks great.
Giving Nordiques vibes, which is one of the best of all time.

They look great.

Boston also released a new primary logo, same sorta thing, and I think same one used during the 100 centennial year. They’re releasing new jerseys this week apparently.

The new blue shade is great. Last one was boring and like every other blue team.

I like the fleur-de-lis; a nod to the French colonial history in the region

I always really liked the Blues jerseys they are now retiring. It was a big win when they went back to them from the Reebok atrocities. New ones look alright but they do seem close to the Sabres.

"Mismatched blues" you mean contrast? Shading?

Also they're literally called the BLUES. Not the BLUE. Them wearing two shades of blue matches their name!

They won the Cup in those jerseys, they'll always be iconic.

Are the pants on those two guys supposed to be the same color as the gloves and bottom dark blue trim on the jersey?I assume so, therefore mismatched.

They’re called the Blues because they’re always sad.

Personally, I'd avoid using a blue logo on a blue jersey for better contrast. Instead, I'd go with something like this:

Blue pants and blue gloves! Too many teams added black to their uniforms (after the success of LA Raiders gear).

This is a very meh update. I'm still waiting on a team to take the leap and revolutionize their uniform. Retro looks are so lazy to be doing. NHL should do a City Connect akin to MLB.

Not much to hate about that design. Great update for them. The piping and forearm stripping with excessive black/dark navy was very dated. The piping was originally put in place, when jerseys had that perforated material in the armpits and sides. It somehow managed to hang around as a design aesthetic. It's awful. We don't need to have the front panel of a jersey outlined.

Do any teams still keep the piping or were the Blues the last?

Am I missing something? Where is the piping on these jerseys?
