Which NHL franchise has the best uniforms?
I've always liked the Red Wings. So simple.

4. My only criticism of the B's new home (white) uniforms is...
that they should have made the shoulder striping Yellow with Black like they had in the 70's. :shrug:

2. I've always been partial to my Blue Note,
but I also love the Habs' classic logo and color scheme.

6. *-except the Rangers' NYR/Statue of Liberty ones

Not shabby, actually, certainly when compared to some (most) of the cheesy expansion teams' -- but definitely not Original Six.

edit: spelling

10. Ha! NY sports radio had some fun with those
WFAN (the Rangers' home station, natch) was calling them the "Icelanders" when they wore those.

15. I always considered those statue of liberty ones as "third jerseys"...
How about these from the late 70's?

8. The Redwings logo is my favorite in all of sports
Their uniforms and the Leafs for me.

On the gawdy side, the California Seals and almost anyone from the old WHA. So very 70's :rofl:

9. Team Canada, 1972


Perfect simplicity. BTW, this is Bobby Orr, but he had to sit out the big series, knee surgery.

11. Ranger's blue home jersey
but yeah, pretty much all the original six teams' jerseys are good. I just like the Rangers blue one the best.

17. Red Wings then Canadiens
The Bluejackets and Capitals have the most improved of the new jerseys.

18. Edmonton Oilers Second Jersey. Pretty cool, actually. I also like the Phoenix Coyotes jerseys.
The worst is the Anaheim Ducks. Also the worst name of the bunch.

20. I liked the original Coyote uniforms
The ones with the Southwest/kachina doll vibe:

The red ones? Eh. Could be an ECHL team in Topeka.

Speaking of the ECHL, I always loved this one, more for the nickname than the unis:
