The Wild's Winter Classic uniforms are incredible though, that should be their full time brand. 

 

No, I wouldn't go that far. But I'd be perfectly fine if it became full-time alternate, for a while. A beautiful uniform like that should be worn more often, so that it doesn't go to waste.

The Wild look nice when they pair the Scenery-Bear with restrained, traditional striping.  When they try and look like a team from the 1920's?  Not so much.  That Winter Classic jersey was atrocious.

Agreed.  I do think their current home/road is one of their best in their brief history.

Their current home and road, along with the WC as an alternate jersey would be perfect  

 

I am still hoping that they’re going to bring it back out for at least one other game this year.

Wild isn't a good name but it's tolerable. It's better than Magic, Thunder, Ducks, Sharks, Avalanche, Predators, Lightning, or Blue Jackets. Hockey has a lot of bad team names.

The only one of these I'd maybe agree with is Magic. Ducks & Sharks might be a bit generic, but they are at least plural nouns and not abstract concepts. And Blue Jackets is one of my favourite names in pro sports. It's unique, has a connection to the local market, and sounds like it could belong to a team that's been around for decades.

 

Wild & Kraken are minor league caliber names that got salvaged by major league caliber logos & uniforms.
