Not a fan of the Home, but I do like the Away one.

Look much better on the person than on the hanger. That shot has me sold.

I guess I like the trend of simpler jerseys without piping and what not, ex: Tampa, Carolina and Dallas. But they're all just kinda boring. I wouldn't mind a few bells and whistles.

They should have kept the gold, picked a different green, and used a similar striping pattern as the 90s ones. Something like this would have been better IMO:

Away jersey isn't too bad, but the home ones look terrible.

That color...it looks like Cartman ran over the Green Men with a Zamboni.

Awesome jerseys. Nice, simple design. Strong logo and excellent colours.

Uniform upgrade (not hard to beat what they had), but that's a huge downgrade on the logo. It includes all the worst trends in sports logo design over the past several years - angled serifs, obnoxious shadowing etc. I think it already looks a bit dated.

They should've kept the gold also.

Nice to see a normal font and number (hopefully the Flames move away from the 15+ year old font on their next set).

Only change I would make would be to have that pants logo with the State of Texas, as the shoulder logo, not the round logo. And a green home helmet as opposed to black.

Really hate the "3D" shadowing on the logo. Dig the colours though, even though they're pretty ugly.

Seems like the new trend is heading towards more traditional design in regards to the striping and contrasting shoulders on the aways.

Pretty sharp I must say. They remind me of North Dakota's jerseys.

The jerseys really highlight the design issues of that logo. If you can't put your teams logo on your jersey without adding extra padding around it, then maybe you should have rethought the logo for a second.

The white edge on the star on the green jersey just screams "amateurs at work". At least using gold there would have made it more tolerable. Like this:
(A really quick and rough Paint job on top of AC:s version, but you get the idea.)




The logo looks notably better on the white jersey, since the dark green edges effectively makes the star bigger and bolder. It makes the proportions of the star and D to work much better.

Not a fan of the white bottom on the home. Makes guys look like they are wearing a diaper (coupled with long tails of the jerseys)

They look a lot better than I thought they would after initially seeing the primary and secondary logos.

Seems teams are starting to trend towards simpler designs...which is good.

Fan of the jersey, one of the better re-brands the NHL has done.

I like it. The green has some nice 'pop' to it.

They picked old school Riders green; pretty much the ugliest shade of green possible. Then again I've never been a fan of the colour green.

Funny how much better AC's concept is, with just the subtlest of changes.

All due respect to AC, the gold absolutely ruined the Dallas jerseys for years.

Really love the colors of these new jerseys, especially the green. Great shade.

I like these a lot. Nice call back to the North Star unis. I agree a touch of gold would make it nicer.
