We're really doing this, huh? We're really gonna let a professional hockey team playing in the world's highest-caliber league play third fiddle to a college hockey team and youth gymnastics tournaments? Make it make sense.

Jesus Christ, just move the team to Quebec. If nothing else, the Centre Videotron can be a temporary home until they find a buyer in Houston. I don't know why anyone is even marginally considering the move to ASU as a legitimate option. Like, it's so bats#!t crazy I can't find proper words for it.

Ugh. I'm tired of teams just doing direct throwbacks, even as alternates. Move the brand forward. Give us something new. Don't just be lazy and slap an old design on an Adidas template.

1998 was the first year of the Islanders' navy rebrand, and the last for the Lightning's storm jerseys. Without looking at the schedule from that year, I imagine this matchup only could've happened a small handful of times at most.

The actual design of the logo's teeth and moustache are distinctly different from the actual jersey to the mothership's logo.

The teeth and mustache on the mothership's "Burger King" logo are different than what was worn on the ice.

Update: I bought the Stars jersey too. I also found this in another box and, of course, got it for myself: It's been a good week for 90s NHL jerseys, but a bad week for my wallet!

Idk if this is popular or unpopular, but this: Looks better than this: I can't quite place why, but I like the subtle blue stripes and lack of a white cuff.

I work at a boutique-y type thrift store. Earlier today, we got a big shipment of hockey jerseys, and it had the grail to end all grails in it: Needless to say, I bought it. It was only $45 after my employee discount. There were also a bunch of 90s and Y2K jerseys in there that I didn't snag, but really, really wanted to. I was like a kid in a candy store going through that box. There were a bunch of other 90s jerseys (Mainly Blackhawks, Rangers, and Habs) and fake Edge jerseys in the shipment too, but those didn't feel as special as these bad boys.

A supposed Rangers Reverse Retro prototype has popped up on eBay.

Solid? Yes. Better than the Kachina jerseys? No.

hotter take: these are the isles' best jerseys of all time

The only negative of moving the Coyotes is that we'd be losing the Kachina jerseys.

The cross on the thumbs is a pretty neat touch. Why is Nike so good at putting in little touches that add nothing to the design, but so bad at creating designs as a whole?

When you isolate this part of the logo, yeah. In the confines of the overall design, it doesn't look like a palm tree at all. You can isolate an element of most any logo design and make it look like something it isn't.

Hey, the Islanders did it first! Speaking of the Isles... THE STREAK IS OVER!!

Not sure how popular or unpopular this is, but the Islanders look better with double outlines on their jerseys.

I do have to say, I appreciate the subtle shading and striping on Canada's numbers.

Why even contemplate about whether Houston is worth it or not? Just move the Coyotes to Quebec, where we know damn well hockey works, and works well.

Not sure if anybody's posted it yet, but Travis Zajac in the Adidas Devils jerseys never did look quite right.

The white jersey is the only one that’s even semi-okay, and even it gets ruined by the black gear.

The Blues look better now than they ever have. Elevating the Winter Classic jerseys to a full-time look would be a mistake.

waist stripes pls

I bet it's because "ASTROS" has an even number of letters, while "HOUSTON" doesn't. Because of the buttons on the jersey, they can't really align the word Astros without there being a huge gap in the middle of the word. Houston can have the 'S' comfortably in the middle, while Astros is a little misplaced.
