When i first saw those jerseys i thought the league, and these teams, must have been crazy. i have never understood why the nhl is just such a bad marketing league. usually there is a reversal in jersies, they look to the past and make it futuristic. these jersies are something from the 23rd century, with their no stripes, team names on top, not to mention how they started off being ridiculous unusable for players as they complained in the early days of the jersey. With the way these uniforms are, there won't be a 23rd century for the nhl.
