These Washington Capitals jerseys were awesome and although the team was never my favorite, I was a fan of Peter Bondra and Olaf Kolzig as players.

What is your favorite past jersey and the players you think of wearing it?

I own a 4XL of one of these (same Kolzig) and I can tell you it looks nowhere as good in real life as the pictures. I don't know if they had a special cut made out for goaltenders or if it's the professional camera work or whatever. The stretching eagle from side to side is really off-putting - especially when seen reversed in a mirror. Also the very tip of the wing keeps peeling off.

Nice for nostalgia but an absolute 0 for compatibility and/or comfort.

Is it just me or is this thread showing a trend toward the 'muted' colours of yesterday? The bright 'retro' colours tho hailed and adorned this past decade+ as 'timeless' are again outwearing their welcome - faux-pas even.

Kinda makes you stop and think.
