Morgan33 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 BgMack27, I owe you an apology. I missed the thing about the chart and I have to say it's a great idea. Thought this was just another "best look in history" thread. Anyhow 5 yard penalty or not, my original image isn't helpful for this as it does not feature all 30 NHL teams. So I'll be doing them by division with the full uniform sets. Only 1 pick has changed.Anaheim DucksWent with the original set here sans shoulder patches. This set is so far and above the bland, corporate looking jerseys currently worn it's ridiculous. It's no shock the Ducks overhaul happened the same year of the buffaslug.Dallas StarsThe colours of the inaugural set are superior but the choice of green as the primary colour is ultimately more important than any other design decision the team could make. The colour heirarchy is absolutely perfect and I don't mind the all star striping pattern. It was a unique look that no other team had. Certainly more distinctive than the brave duds the team wears now Los Angeles KingsThis one had to be changed from my original pick. I still maintain the current road jersey is the best in Kings history but I can't give it the win when it's paired with the current black jersey. Not when it has piping in place of hem stripes and crest you can barely see. Consistancy is important which is why the Gretzky set gets the win.Phoenix CoyotesI hate the Coyotes current look, pre Edge or Edge it looks awful. They look like a brick version of the red wings minus a decent logo. The inaugural look by comparison was colourful and creative. I also own an authentic Black and whoever on here said it was a sight to behold wasn't lying.San Jose SharksCall me crazy but I think a 90's expansion team dressed in teal should have a non traditional looking jersey. The teal version with it's mat gray shoulders was not only a modern classic but the best in Sharks history. The white jersey is less spectacular but it holds it's own in the set.

greyraven8 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Here's my go, pics in no particular order - missed a few teams partly because I think they don't have any half decent look and/or I got sick of looking through images.

I figured you just weren't reading what I wrote, which is why I kept busting your chops about it. No harm, no foul. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up.

It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle.

hockey week Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Here's my go, pics in no particular order - missed a few teams partly because I think they don't have any half decent look and/or I got sick of looking through images.Wow, that is a seriously vintage selection, and I thought I was a traditionalist.Only one disagreement, and that's the Kansas City Scouts. I've been made fun of in that jersey, people thought it looked "clownish"You have the Devils and Rockies in there anyway, which is all one franchise, but I had to say, aside from the logo, that jersey is awful I'll respect any opinion that you can defend.

Morgan33 Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 Central DivisionChicago BlackhawksThe Black jersey was a nice change of paceColumbus Blue JacketsI don't think the Blue Jackets have ever had a good looking jersey to be honest. This is set is slightly more tolerable than what came before.Detroit Red WingsI like how the logo colours are reversed on this set... and how the stripe on the red jersey is higher. Provides better consistency with the white version.Nashville PredatorsWhile I loathe the piping and goofy template, the decision to go with yellow at home gives it the win. Not that there was much competitionSt Louis BluesObvious choice. The only other set coming close was the one with minimal red trim in the early 90's. This is still much better though.

Morgan33 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Calgary FlamesThis was a perfect set that got completely butchered during the Edge debacle. If you had asked me in 2006/07 who the best dressed team was, the Flames would definitely be considered.Colorado AvalancheObvious choice. Note the lighter shade of bergundy, makes the uniform pop more.Edmonton OilersNavy, Red and Copper was a dated looking scheme 10 years ago. The original scheme blows it out of the water in my opinionMinnesota WildThe original Iron Range Red jersey was a fantastic look for the Wild. Just not a full time. A hockey team playing in Minnesota is meant to be green. Even if the jersey is not as popular with the fans.Vancouver CanucksThe set isn't perfect but damned if it's not the best they've ever looked. Those colours look better than they ever did during the teams early years and the updated stick and rink gives some legitimacy to a previously bad logo.
