CHI: The 96-09 black alt in white

You mean the white jerseys they already wear?

DAL: Straight 1991 Minnesota North Stars throwbacks

I don't see that happening, honestly. Dallas' previous RR was entirely Dallas-themed, and this one would 100% be in that vein; seems like they're content to let the Wild have the North Stars imagery for Reverse Retros.

 

Honestly, I expect them to do the Mooterus this time, since their last design likely didn't sell super well because of how bland it was.

[WSU151]

None of the RRs in the first edition were straight throwbacks so I’d assume that will be the same next year.

 

Straight throwbacks are Classics.

No, I mean the 96-09 black alt in white.

I also said I want to see the Wild in North Stars jerseys too, so there's no problem there.

Yes, because that's the problem you noticed with my list.

I mean...it's weird you put Classics in a RR list....so yeah...that is a bit of a problem with your guesses.  

 

And you think the Blackhawks are just going to switch the stripe colors of the home jersey? Maybe, but probably not.

I don't see what you're saying here. They're already color swaps of each other. They used the exact same design.

Maybe he just wants the stripes to be r/w/b/w/r instead of b/w/r/w/b but that would be way too small of a change for most people.

Islanders 50th anniversary logo dropped

 

Fingers crossed Lou is Lou and we don't have a one-off gold alternate jersey like some other teams

Honestly, fingers crossed we get a Fisherman of some kind for it. I know there's people who hate that jersey, but like...it's basically the only even somewhat not-awful historical alternative design the Islanders have, so I'd have to imagine they'll do it for this kind of milestone.

No, I was just being difficult and a little troll attempt that didn't really get the play I hoped for. If you look at my list, they're all me trying to pick the worst/dumbest (or at least the worst/dumbest that I thought was funny in my mind) possible choices.

 

I'm just kind of surprised that people only jumped on me wanting the Blackhawks to wear their away jerseys and how Dallas has let the Wild take the North Stars stuff (and not the fact that I had the Wild wearing the jerseys Dallas actually wore for a couple seasons).

 

Look at my list again with that in mind. The Flames in a black pedestal with the script logo and the flags. The Canadiens in the closest I could make them to Leafs jerseys. The Ducks in the EDGE set. The Rangers and Jets wearing the same jerseys. The Oilers wearing royal and orange and navy and copper. The Red Wings not wearing any red.

See, I didn't notice that because you actually listed some good options.

Reverse Retro is so stupid that no one can tell the difference.

Blackhawks could do something like this:

No they couldn't.

I think you misspelled a word. There, I fixed it for you. No need to thank me :^)

Hard to make a "new" Blackhawk jersey that doesn't feel like it's been done to death before but those are pretty decent. Not as boring as the last 12 WC/RR jerseys they've worn, mostly cause they're red. They've pretty much scraped the bottom of the barrel for white and black based jerseys but red would be a nice change of pace imo

[The_Admiral]

A primitive drawing of an Indian with a literal bright red face is going to go over like a fart in church. They can't do any of these. A 1930s barberpole with the current Indian Head is the only mashup I can think of that would work. 

[pepis21]

No one said they couldn't use crests from 2019 WC or 2021 RR/2009 WC jerseys.

A black version of the current red home jersey seems like one of the only options Chicago has left.

It does look pretty cool, found using a google search:

 

Other viable options:

Vintage white version of the 2010 WC jersey (but with red and black center stripes)

White version of the 1992 75th throwback

White (or red) version of the current black alternate (but with red and black stripes)

Are the Blue Jackets teasing a jersey ad as if it's something we should be excited about?
