Right on. The cossed tomahawks on the front would have catapulted the Blackhawks in my top 5.
Bruins and Penguins both knocked it out of the park. Also really like Florida's, Vancouver's, and Arizona's.
It would be cool to see the Flames do a throwback to the Calgary Cowboys of the WHA next time
The problem, for me, with the Sabres RR 2.0 is that they reversed the black one instead of simply applying the new colours to the white one. The yoke really cuts back the white in the ‘99 jersey, so with it missing in the new one there is way too much white. It is still nice, but I am more excited about the black alt.
Hey there Shannon! I'm a Carolina Hurricanes fan and thought I would tell you more on our away jersey then leading to what the Reverse Retro is based on. Our away jersey we brought in in 2019 was one that has a ton of meaning in it. First, the warning flag pattern. It is a combo of the then home jersey faded pattern and the size of the original jerseys from when they started. Then the shoulder patches are the new alternate logo on each shoulder as not only a nod to the original jerseys but also the subtle outline of North Carolina there for them to take the state of North Carolina with them on the road. Which then leads to the wordmark itself. If you travel to anywhere near where the Hurricanes are almost all the people refer to them as the 'Canes and not the Hurricanes. With both the alternate shoulder patches and the wordmark the 'Canes take with them a piece of home and their fans with them. And now for the Reverse Retro 2.0. I do admit this is not what I hoped for. And yes it isn't really retro in most manners. I hoped for a white version of our original alternate. However, with them not wanting to do another Whalers jersey and with them already having one old 'Canes jersey with the 25th anniversary jersey, I can understand not wanting to throw it all to one era. So they can kill several birds. First, not a Whalers, second, it is on its own and not from the same era as the vintage jersey. Also, It is the first time the 'Canes have had black warning flags on the outside of the jersey since their original alternate. And also they can see if they can see from this if it would be a good idea to make this their home jersey in the future. Overall I love it and think it is great. Thank you for the great videos! I Really enjoy them! I too collect jerseys and hats and enjoy the great hockey community growing here on KZread! Thank you for helping making it fun!
From what I've heard, Seattle is saving a Metropolitans jersey for an outdoor game.
There's 2 ideas I would like to see down the road somewhere: 1) edmonton from the 2007 era, but an all copper jersey with blue, red, and white accents. 2) I don't want the red wings to add black. I want silver ( actual silver, not gray). Could do an all silver jersey with the 2017 centennial design, with red and white accents.

Red wings with silver would look sharp. Dump the ugly gray for good.
I'm hoping the Kraken are intentionally saving the Metropolitans' Christmas sweater for a Winter Classic against the Montreal Canadiens. I was probably one of the odd Seattle fans hoping it *wasn't* going to be a Metropolitans throwback, so I'm really glad they went with the Ironmen instead. Means the Christmas sweater can be saved for an even bigger occasion.
Would love to see them revive more defunct team designs or non-NHL designs in newer markets: Barons, Pirates, Quakers, Amerks, Maroons, Eagles, Bulldogs, Wanderers, Metropolitans, Totems, Original Senators, Las Vegas Thunder, the entire RHI, all of it. I'd also love some more preseason one-offs and prototypes revived like the Burger Kings, the Blues Jazz, and the Nordiques Husky.

I agree. I hope next time around Pittsburgh would do a throwback to the Pittsburgh Pirates either the WPHL (Western Pennsylvania Hockey League) team or the NHL team. Either that or any of the other WPHL teams since it shows the history of hockey in Pittsburgh. The WPHL started in 1896 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and lasted until it went defunct in 1909. It was the first hockey league to hire and trade players.
Already pre-ordered the CBJ reverse retro! Can't wait to get it!
Vancouver's hands down the best retro.
I've always loved Johnny Canuck, I was already considering getting an Abbotsford Jersey, but I love the reverse retro so I'm probably gonna spend a bit more and get that one!
Makes me happy to know that people know the Colorado state flag, I still miss the Yeti foot but so be it...

Already pre ordered the Blues one. I like that they thought outside the box a bit. It was my biggest complaint about the red ones. Super lazy. The only version of this style we’ve been able to get were some off brand ones in white or blue at Enterprise in 17/18. Super funky sizing that is very unflattering, so I rarely wear mine anymore. Glad to have a replacement!

@@fantasticvoyage262 It was more that they had already recently brought that style back and did the least imaginative reverse. If they had to use that exact style, it looks better in black (they sold that as a fashion jersey in 90s). But I would have liked more inventiveness. Swap the shoulder patch with the bluenote, maybe have a few bluenotes coming out of the trumpet (I really like the trumpet logo). Use the arch logo. Blend the clown design with the current jersey. Even using Ornest logo would have been more interesting, and I really don't like that one. I would have even taken the ugly ones that Keenan banned.

@woodsie22 Black doesn't work. Or it's not a Reverse Retro. I don't care if the same jersey in blue was dusted off the year before. The Coyotes, Capitals, Rangers, and Wild are doing the same thing this year in a different color. So they all must be lazy too then, right? Yet, they keep getting universally praised. None of those arch logos ever looked good. Keenan was already fired before the trumpet jersey was to be worn. There is a detailed video here that shares how it couldn't have been his decision.
I love the Flames pedestal jersey.
Excellent video idea
The camera has begun to pause for a long time between clips
I was confused why the Canadiens were light blue until someone mentioned they were a throwback to Les Expos. I wish the Leafs would give us the 80s era jersey with the current logo. For buying, budget permitting; Isles, Sharks, Oil, Devils, Sabres, Kings and Jets
My biggest complaint about the Rangers jersey is that the emblem on the front is too small. I don''t care too much about the word mark jerseys. I've never been a big fan of them because I like the team emblems on the front much more.
When you have all of the jerseys it would be cool to compare them to their inspirations and see which one is better.

Florida better keep this one
I think the metropolitans will be used for an outdoor game
I think I liked first run overall more than this 2nd run. I really liked about 10 could be as high as 13 of the originals. Now maybe 5 and though it might be closer to 3. Too many white jerseys for my liking.
I have no problem with the fisherman for the Isles but I don't like this new application. The lines don't match up and I'm not sold on the colors chosen. The Isles haven't designed a decent jersey in about three decades.
Ducks fan and I love the original logo, but I don’t really like this one with the black and orange colors. Still better than their current uniforms though and would happily take this as their full time jersey.
it's jersey Christmas!!!

The striping on the Flames jersey just looks like one giant error happened at the printing office. Ah well, I guess if you Flames fans are satisfied who cares
I dont see what you're saying about the canes jersey. In the first video i thought you meant they used the old flag logo on the shoulders, which would have been a nice touch but isnt the case. I appreciate you demonstrating your thoughts in this video but i still dont see what you mean? Its not the new away logo on the classic home base, its an inverted away jersey. The storm flags on the new rr trim are a muted black, not a red on black. There is nothing on the rr canes jersey that throws back to any old design. They should have flipped the original alternate jersey but instead they gave us this. Seems that you're more happy about no whalers logo than you are about the design itself. Canes fans will tell you its bad all day long.
I know I’m in the minority, but I like the current Ducks color scheme more than the original. We just need to use way less of the tan/gold.
7:58 is a abomination of a Jersey
I hate the retro Toronto leaf. It looks like a cross between a snowflake and a circle
Detroit's looks fine... for a red and black team that wants to give a nod to the Cougars -- but not for the Red Wings. Other than skates,bBlack shouldn't be anywhere near a Wings jersey or uniform.
If I was a Penguins fan, I'd never want to see that particular Penguin again. They changed to that after winning two Stanley Cups in a row, and in that one, they had a great regular season, and then lost to a vastly inferior Islander team in the playoffs-and the Islanders were even playing without their best player (Pierre Turgeon). I wouldn't call that the "Robo-Penguin" or "Corporate-Penguin". I'd call it the "David Volek Penguin".

Probably not but I have a lot of nostalgia for it because I was only 6 years old when they started using that logo so it was one of the first logos that they had that I remember. Even though I remember them winning in '92 and kinda remember them winning in '91 I didn't really remember the logos that they used at the time until I rewatched footage of it years later.
