Four jerseys this season and two of them are black, that's a huge miss.

I am pretty surprised the Athletic had us ranked so badly. I think the boring/lazy ones should always be ranked worse... How is Carolina's better than ours? They didn't even really do anything... also, Ottawa? Very lame... These should be ranked on fun and creativity, it's the whole point IMO. I would have CGY in the top 20 at least.

The crest and the neck are nice but the rest is awful, especially that pedestal. I'd rather see the Ronald McDonald jersey than this—and I hate that jersey with the passion of a thousand burning suns.

The NHL logo returning to the classic colours on all the jerseys is a nice touch though.

Blech, this RR thing clearly isn't for me, but the Flames one is terrible. The ESPN list seems to get it mostly right, with colors/design that is different enough from the original, but still clean.

That list had the bottom right. Tampa's is even worse.

The white logo on black looks great...need that on a normal jersey.

The paneling thing is weird though, like really weird.

It looks like it's a completely different material.

Looks like they stitched the bottom to a crop top jersey. Just lazy.

Honestly if they couldn't do the pedestal with the current Adidas Primeknit technology then they should have just went with staight striping on the bottom and got rid of the pedestal.

Would have been similar to how they changed the striping on the last Reverse Retro.

My thoughts exactly. I was 100% going to buy one, but that just makes it look cheap

I was actually thinking how the pedestal would look without the pedestal:



Not bad?

It’s perfectly fine for what it’s intended to do.

The problem is we are going to be wearing black at home for close to half of our home games.

Should have had a red third jersey instead of another black.

It's not great, but it's not as bad as I thought it might look. It's better than the Walmart specials.
