Ranking the NHL’s new ‘Reverse Retro’ sweaters
NHL teams are bringing back their “Reverse Retro” jerseys, and we here at NHL.com are ranking them all!
We’ll be honest, it was tough to narrow it down to just 10 sweaters. The NHL and Adidas have outdone themselves with these new designs, and there are so many good ones to choose from. But we had to make some tough decisions, and these are the jerseys that just missed the cut.
- Carolina Hurricanes
The ‘Canes have had some great jerseys over the years, but this one just didn’t quite do it for us. It’s a little too busy and there’s just too much going on. We did like the use of the old school logo, though.
- Columbus Blue Jackets
This is a really cool jersey, but it’s very similar to the one they wear now. We would have liked to see them mix it up a little more.
- Detroit Red Wings
This is a nice jersey, but it’s very safe. It’s basically just their current home jersey with a different color scheme.
- Florida Panthers
This is a solid jersey, but it’s not one of our favorites. We think it’s a little too plain and boring.
- Los Angeles Kings
This is a cool jersey, but we’re not sure about the color scheme. The dark blue and green just don’t really go together in our opinion.
- Minnesota Wild
This is a nice jersey, but it’s very similar to the one they wear now. We would have liked to see them mix it up a little more.
- Montreal Canadiens
This is a cool jersey, but we’re not sure about the color scheme. The dark blue and green just don’t really go together in our opinion.
- Nashville Predators
This is a solid jersey, but it’s not one of our favorites. We think it’s a little too plain and boring.
- New Jersey Devils
This is a cool jersey, but we’re not sure about the color scheme. The dark blue and green just don’t really go together in our opinion.
- New York Islanders
This is a cool jersey, but it’s very similar to the one they wear now. We would have liked to see them mix it up a little more.
