kimball Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Meh. I wish the NHL allowed more than three sweaters. Even a road white, home dark, home alternate and throwback would be ideal.

hormone Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 The only thing I can think of is cash grab. Most of the thirds were already thirds prior to Adidas taking over. It’s like they had fans buy a white or color jersey last year and you’ll get the third this year. Throwbacks are cool for a weekend or special event, but when it’s your alternate identity, it muddles your current one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTConcepts Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 Still don't get the appeal of this jersey. It's not all that good looking, and it represents a time when the Capitals were arguably at their worst. I understand the nostalgia of it all, but who is wishing to remember the days of being 8-67-5?

I think teams have the opportunity to carry a “retro night” jersey separate from their third, but they aren’t permitted to wear it as many times as the third.

SFGiants58 Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 You know what’s funny? The year the Caps won the Cup is the year they temporarily dumped the retro sweaters. Maybe it’s a sign to leave this dull look in the past and have a modern-style third/a throwback to the slate blue sweaters?
