Chewbacca 408 Posted March 2 I'm very surprised to see people here not loving Chicago's reverse retro. I think it is a very nice uniform and I think it would be a decent third jersey. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Changing the hem striping is kinda antithetical to the whole point of the Reverse Retro idea. 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NYRFan 121 Posted March 2 Sharks went heritage jerseys in B2B games, I see. If nothing else, they score a boatload of goals when they dress like a real hockey team. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It could work for any of the red/black teams, nothing about it says Chicago. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At some point of making new throwbacks, you reach the designs that aren't super-iconic. And like, making a black version of their white jersey A.) has already been done and B.) wouldn't fit the Reverse Retro criteria. They were gonna have to dig deep eventually. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just pointing out why its not getting a ton of love. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Clearly the Avs were distracted by the raw beauty of that San Jose sweater and forgot to play defense. 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spartacat_12 1,496 Posted March 2 I was kind of hoping Chicago would've gone with the football style front numbers instead of the traditional crest. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How would you sell jerseys that are blank/not-customized? Pretty sure that's the reason why they went with the logo on the front. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, I'm aware that based on logistics it makes more sense to have a logo on the front, but it would just be something a little more unique for a team that has had 10 different jerseys in a little over a decade. USA Hockey had Buffalo Bills themed jerseys for the World Juniors. I'm not sure if they sold any that were blank. Even though it looks awful, the CFL sells blank jerseys: 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
