Favorite Unis

[Bluesbacker]

First and foremost gotta be the Blues, especially the 67 threads. The best of the rest are the original six, and the 67' expansion teams. I remember as a kid walking into that big beautiful barn and seeing the jersey's hanging framed in the front lobby. Man, what I would pay to relive that feeling just one more time !! Let's hear it boys !!

When I first became aware of the NHL, I was probably in 4th Grade, right when the Blues were wearing the diagonal stripes in ‘95. I know they’re controversial around here, but the NHL sweaters from that era always have a special place in my heart.

The Blues note not being symmetrical and giving the appearance it was naturally flowing to the left really aligned itself with the diagonal stripes, and the numbers on the back were unique to any jersey in all of sports.

It flowed, it was unique, it was clean, Hull, Gretzky, MacInnis, & Pronger, Pierre Turgeon, and Tony Twist all wore them. They’ll always be special. I’ll eventually buy both a Home & Away to frame. Too cool not to.

I always enjoyed the Penguin Shield jerseys around that same time, more than the simple cartoon penguin on skates.

The mid-to-late 90’s Arizona Coyotes jerseys, Avalanche jerseys, Sabres jerseys, Ducks w/the hockey bill mask, NY Rangers Lady Liberty, 2D Ottawa Senators

I like the early 2000’s Dallas Stars jerseys around that Hull wore, and early 2000’s Sharks including the black alternate. I’ll throw the Washington Capitals w/the Eagle & the Capitals Building

The late 2000’s Florida Panthers & Flyers

Late 2010’s New Jersey Devils & Tampa Lightning

Also, I liked the mid-2000’s Coyotes jerseys. I own both the Maroon with the crying coyote and the black 90’s Coyotes jerseys.

Truthfully, I love all the Blues Jerseys, if each era… and there’s really only one type of jersey I don’t like… one that spells out the team’s city or name (Ex: Colorado, Rangers), or worse shortens it (Bolts, Sens). It’s just lazy and or stupid. I like a jersey with a clean logo

Buffalo Sabres buffalo and sabres
Hartford Whalers
Quebec Nordiques

Obviously any iteration of the blues jersey is the best in all of sport

[Inglewood Jack]

This is the best, follwed by the Blues with the diagonal lay out

The lobby display was very special!
Setting the clock at 1967, all of the ORIGINAL jerseys home and away for the first 22 teams (in other words including the 4 that came in from the WHA as well as the Sharks...and I am referring to the KC Scouts, not the Rockies/Devils) at that point. After that there have been some very nice ones, but it seems the designers just reach too much for my taste, and they change them too often.
A final qualifier, the Bruins were unique with the black & gold and Flyers' black pants; but now there is too much of the black everywhere. I get it looks intimidating or whatever, but it's boring.
Eyes of the beholder...

awful.. somebody needs a refund on their marketing degree

Love the current Blues jerseys. Was a big fan of the 98-2004 version and the early 90s Hull era jerseys as well. Diagonal striped ones were not my favorites.

Around the league the Whalers and Nordiques always stood out. Penguins currents are perfect. Early 90s Flyers I loved, North Stars, Kings Gretzky era and their Lakers colors were great. All the original 6 jerseys are top notch. Flames and Oilers both have great current sets. Original Sharks jerseys were ace. Buffalo looks great currently. Canucks will always be the Bure era skate logo black/gold to me.

the red blackhawks ensemble is the best uniform in all of sports.

hartford whalers
original tampa bay lightening unis
original san jose shark unis

I loved the diagonal jerseys, I was glad when they went away though. The 98-07 jerseys are my favorite, followed by the 92-94 with the 3 color layer nameplates. Then the 08-16 3rds with the navy, circle arch logo, and the lace up front.

I was always a sucker for the mid 90s Canucks jerseys. Black with skate emblem.

If I had to rank Blues Jerseys…
0.) 1992-94 Blues w/Names matching Numbers
9.) 2017 Blue Winter Classics
8.) 2007-14 Home Whites (personally own)
7.) 1967-73 Original Blues
6.) 1974-77 Home Whites w/Names
5.) 2008-14 Navy Blue Alternates
4.) 2017-25 Home Blues
3.) 1995-98 White w/Blue Diagonal
2.) 2025- Road Whites
1.) 2007-14 Home Blues

There’s 3 I don’t care a lot for…
3.) Camo jersey iterations
2.) 2022-23 Reverse Retro
1.) Super Ugly ‘96 Alternate that Mike Keenan vetoed.

original san jose shark unis
early 90s stl blues unis
green/yellow north star unis without the black
the red calgary flames ensemble has always popped, too.

I always thought it was interesting that no one wore green pants for a long time. I think Minnesota has them now. Also, I thought the maroon color of Anaheim looked really cool. I never did like the Thrasher's unis.

Absolutely hate the redesigned Ducks logo/uniform

The last 20 years of Ducks uniforms has been so bad after such a strong start. They at least brought back the Duck-Mask logo, but need to embrace the Maroon & teal. The “D” logo is a shoulder patch at best and the orange screams hinting season

[bluecalgary]

The current away jerseys are great. Simple colours and design that just pop.

[Rollin' on the River]

I hate the rebranded home sweaters a lot, but the whites have some issues too.

My all time favorite uniform though is probably the Anaheim Ducks Eggplant and Teal

[Rollin' on the River]

The current away jerseys are great. Simple colours and design that just pop.

The numbers look like beer league numbers and badly need kto be trimmed and the blue either is too bright against the white background or the white is too white. I can’t decide.
