A clear cultural appropriation for the sole purpose of economic profit. The jersey might as well have a "FUCK THE QUÉBÉCOIS!" banner wrapped around the hemline.

I'd buy that.

Yeah, the Habs switched the Red and Blue in the universally loved jerseys they've worn for 80 years. The Blues dug up the most hated jersey in team history, the only one with red, and made it the prominent feature. It's dumb, it's ugly, and I will not rest until everyone on the internet agrees with me!

NHL hides the native American logo for some reason.

Yeah, Use the Blackhawk's shoulder patches, and replace the blue-note with the winged-wheel. Fuck You, Adidas!

Will you two stop ignoring the beauty of the Nordic throwback

Yeah, some of these teams came out with great jerseys. Jerseys that you hope they keep. Avs came out with one, the Wild jersey using North Star colors is awesome and the Kings blending the Gretzky era jersey with the original purple looks awesome.

I always knew it would come to this. You and I locked in internet mortal combat. Just so you know, the reason I'm smiling is I am not left handed....ah shit that's not true, I am. Please don't stab me.

Yeah, some of these teams came out with great jerseys. Jerseys that you hope they keep. Avs came out with one, the Wild jersey using North Star colors is awesome and the Kings blending the Gretzky era jersey with the original purple looks awesome.

I agree for the most part. I really like the Wild's look. I think that bright Green/Gold color scheme is outstanding and nobody uses it. I always thought the Gretzky era Kings jerseys were the best in that organization's history by a mile, and I'm surprised at how much I like them in purple/gold.

As for the Avs, they look nice, but I'm not sure how I feel about a team using the logo/design of a market they plucked a team out of and changed immediately. Same thing with the Whalers/Canes. I liked seeing the regular Whalers uniforms on throwback nights, but I'm not sure how anyone from Hartford felt about that. Obviously I just referenced the Wild using the North Stars colors as one of my favorites, but I think it's different when its a new team in the same market.

Another jersey I was really disappointed by was the Canucks:

They have such a diverse uniform history with the flying V and the Bure era skate jersey, along with a great standard color scheme. I can't believe they ended up with this 1994 indoor lacrosse style turd.

What’s with that serpent? I do not understand that Canuck logo and what it stands for or means for that matter. wish they would get rid of it.

Sammy looks like he just got caught smoking weed before 4th period and is trying to hide it while looking nonchalant
