Not going to lie. I like them both. Especially Washington.

Both are too plain. That eagle needs some red outlines or something. The Canes is just too boring.

Hurricanes jersey is trash; pretty typical for that franchise though.

Capitals jerseys are kinda neat. They remind me of sublimated jerseys that became popular in the late '90s.

I like them. Kind of plain with the colour schemes, but that is kind of the point when teams play in a big stadium. They are meant to be seen from a distance and adding more detail and colour schemes doesn't translate well in those conditions.

Both awful. The Washington jersey is an okay idea but something about it just doesn’t work for me.

A jersey with only two colours never works for me if one of those colours isn’t white. The black and red looks awful.

I like the idea of the Washington jersey, but talons coming down on the hips and something around the collar, and that would be their everyday jersey.

Washington is nice, Carolina's is bland and to feels the same as other jersey's they've had in the past.

I think Carolina has the worst designer in the NHL.

Like, what are we doing here. You could do a lot with the nickname "Hurricanes" I think.

Caps jersey is brilliant for a Stadium Series. Fans in attendance might actually be able to see the logo.

I guess at some point the "Heritage" Classic concept will have run its course and Canadian teams will have "Modern" takes for stadium games.

Another view, even discounting the muted colors in the poor quality photo,
I think the Capitals' one looks worse in the wider view.

I like the Canes jersey. The Capitals jersey looks like something Germany would wear back in the day.
