Would have liked to see the vertical stripes on the arms with the Habs logo in the center of the jersey. Main colour of the jersey would be the light expo blue. Perhaps with an off-set Habs logo and player number on the front like the baseball jersey...?

I get what some posters are saying there isn't enough red. But I personally love the jersey. One of the best among the Reverse Retro jerseys.

The Jerseys are fine, but all they did was palette swap the red for baby blue. I don't think they had to be too crazy, but they could have been at least a little bit more creative.

It's fine I guess, that shade of blue makes sense even though the one from the previous reverse retro jersey was gorgeous (I didn't like it at first but it really grew on me). I agree that we could have had more red.

I'm not sure I like a dark blue name on a light blue jersey. The number really pops out though.

Anyway, the best Habs third jersey is still the white vintage one used in the 00's ;)

I don't mind it. I'll like it if everyone hates it.

I don't hate them. They look decent enough but they are somewhat uninspiring.

I think the potential for an expo theme got me excited but there's really very little correlation here.

They took both jerseys and blended it together, more or less.

Miss the Centennial jerseys, should have been inspired by those for our reverse retro.

I bet there will be more 3rd jerseys coming down the pipeline pretty quickly. I suspect this will become an almost annual event, so I'm pretty sure the Habs will go back to those centennial concepts for inspiration at some point.

I thought those "CA" jerseys were particularly sharp back then.
