Everett insisted on it, even though it looks (looked? Do they still use those?) like crap. Rbk was very concerned about matching up the front panels and the side panels, especially because there were different fabrics in mind. That's why horizontal stripes were highly discouraged and any kind of oddball striping was essentially refused.

Rochester said that they were not allowed to have hemline stripes, it wasn't an option for them.

The 67s could not have the barber pole jerseys, one of the few times they didn't use them. They were kept to the shoulders and panels.

Edmonton hated their uniforms almost immediately, at an ownership level.

I think there's been an awful lot of revisionist history going on. Rbk had a lot more control than people are admitting (mostly because Reebok would pass off issues to blame on the team every so often, when I think more of it was really the league rules concerning how quickly things could be changed), and only when teams pitched hissy fits did things even get done (look at the Rangers, who even sewed their hemlines up for a while. If the teams had similar levels of control as the NFL did with Reebok, do you think the Rangers would be using curved hemlines? C'mon. They were bullied because they're not big money.)

I'll respect any opinion that you can defend.

I also got 29... Damn Blues logo got me.

I got the same... I think that those shades of blue were both wrong, and they just added a thing for people to get wrong or right. If that makes sense. :D

I got 29..missed Dallas and still can't figure out what the difference between the two logos are

The shade of green. The other version had the old shade.

I got Dallas wrong too. Got everything else right. 29/30

The wrong shade was much closer to victory green than the darker shade, which from that image looks like their old green. I thought my monitor was playing tricks on me. Still, how did I not notice the rough edges on a few of the sides of the wrong choice which clearly indicated usage of the fill tool?? Damn lol.

The Hurricanes logo is the only one I missed because it actually somehow looks less stupid upside down than it does normally. Goodness is that a terrible logo.

I have an object with a Canadiens logo at my desk and I still couldn't tell which choice was the correct one. I guessed the slightly darker one because deeper colors are usually the answer. But just by looking at my monitor, I wasn't sure at all.
