This was the design I advocated for, but alas...

NHL Reverse Retro

It's funny how the remix of some jerseys I hated actually look good to me. The St. Louis jersey is the prime example of it for me.

And I get why people like the Avs jersey. But, the lack of powder blue hurts it for me.

I may have to buy me a Canadians jersey, because that thing is sharp. Love the Carolina one, the CBJ one, Blackhawks and Colorado one.

I'm not a fan of ours because it just doesn't seem like they really put too much thought into it. I mean at least some teams got creative with certain colors, ours just looks like a 3rd jersey more than anything else. It's fine for a t-shirt design, but I just feel it's lacking something.

I don’t like the original jersey, so I naturally don’t like this one.
The design is just very dated looking, particularly the wordmark at the bottom.

I really wish they had gone back to Bisons inspiration like the 2010 jersey.

It just hit me: They could've done that with "Buffalo" spelled out in Japanese as a Taro Tsujimoto tribute.

NHL Power Rankings: Ranking the 31 'Reverse Retro' jerseys

I really like the NJ, Minny, LA, CBus, and Washington jerseys.

And the Vegas and StL ones work for me.

And I don't know who tried the least. Detroit or the Isles.

Looks like the Pegula who designed the turdburger is the same one who designed the butterknife reverse retro jersey. Blah. They just don't get it.

There really wasn’t anything to design. The idea was to take an old jersey and put a modern color spin on it.

I don't mind the blue butterknives for a few games, especially as kind of a 4th jersey. Not the best of the reverse retro series (that's Washington imo), but definitely not the worst. I wish they'd done the buffalo head piping on the jersey, though.

Why can't our teams be named for something the region is known for? The Bills would be easy to fix. The Buffalo Bill Collectors. The Sabres are hopeless. They need a do over.

Too much like Carolina, but It's a good start. I would put on one shoulder the Goat Head, and the other shoulder the B with the sword in it.

I'm curious how it would look in White.

Yeah, it looks very similar to Carolina's thirds, but I still love the look on both Carolina and this concept.

Never liked the butter knives. Would have preferred the White Buffalo (I'll never call it Goat's Head.)

Liked NJ, Minnesota, Avs, Kings, NYR, Carolina (love me that Hartford sweater & logo - most creative ever...) best. Then Caps, Hawks & Oilers.

Montreal's would make for good rugby sweater. Not much thought put into that one.

The rest..... blech.........
