Unless I’m missing something there is no difference. It’s the same jersey just labelled differently (one as the new home jersey and one as the old alternate jersey).

Yeah one is old stock as an alternate jersey and is 40% off, one is new stock as a home jersey. Should be the same jersey

Looks like the oilers will wear orange pants with their white reverse retros. I don't believe an NHL team has ever worn orange pants before.

They captured his dead-eyed stare perfectly.

I still don't know. I am either in love with it and buying one, or think it's uglier than the old flying V and I know it's no where in between but I still haven't made up my mind.

I thought the Oilers looked way better in their old pre-Rebook copper and blue jerseys.

The only thing that looks odd is the half and half solid socks. Really odd, especially the green top half. Gradient socks would’ve been tough to produce, is my guess. But would blue on top and green on the bottom half look better?

And, the Oilers also did a semi reverse retro, swapping the original dark blue in the pants shoulder and gloves, for orange and white. Doesn’t look good at all, but it follows the theme of the Adidas program.

The Flames are one of the few teams who didn’t really follow the “rules” or theme of this Adidas program at all, clearly just wanting to force Blasty, as a black jersey and uniform as-is/was, back to the forefront. My guess is the next Adidas program, whatever theme it ends up being, most teams will be a bit tighter with the execution.

Something about the Jets reminds me of Hans Solo in the carbonite.

Only the Oilers could Oiler up an actual nice classic. Just what they did with the black and orange only it’s like they’re trying to see how bad they can screw with what they have.

I think you need to check the colour saturation on your television. The Oilers didn't have an orange and black jersey; it was orange and navy blue.
