Mock ups
The point is it’s a reverse retro, so moving the stripe down would not be a replica of the jersey it is trying to replicate. The jerseys aren’t supposed to looked great, it’s just supposed to be a reversal of colours from old jerseys. The Parliament logo also made no sense for this campaign, because it was never a real jersey they woreCrazy how this mock up is so much better than the official retros. Having the black stripe at the very bottom as well as the white numbers makes a huge difference and this should be obvious to anyone whose actual job it is to design these things.

For sure, black is way better. The sens definitely didn’t want to introduce another jersey at this timetbf.... Vegas used a concept from another Vegas team.
so we coulda try something different.
could almost argue the same for the Wild.... but whatever.
but at the end, i dont care.... i really dont mind this red jersey.
its just that the black is much cooler.

They’re supposed to be a bit gimmicky and adidas came up with designs at least to start. To me the sens jersey is fine, if they changed the striping and numbers to match the current jerseys then it’s not really reverse retro. It’s only for a year anywayYou keep saying the jerseys aren't supposed to look good like that's a thing.
Pretty sure aside from the novelty ones like the Ducks, teams wanted them to look good if a bit outside the norm.
Also, there is no rule that it had to be perfectly reversed. Plenty of the jerseys made extra changes to fit the style.
Like, what looks tougher???

You purposefully picked the women's jersey didn't you.
Who should I get on my Reverse Retro?
Off limits are:
Tkachuk (saving for a USA jersey)
Dadanov (saving for a Russia)
Balcers (saving for a Latvia)
Stuetzle (on a new one)
Zub (on a new one)
I'm leaning Batherson, Chabot, or Galchenyuk.
