I think some of these are pretty legit jerseys's that could stick around after next season:
-Boston, best of all the jerseys
-Buffalo, pretty cool jersey
-Calgary, better than the original horse head jerseys
-Chicago, they have tons of options, this one is a pretty good one
-NJ, hope they continue to work green back into their set
-Ottawa, love these
-Pittsburgh, simple but awesome
-Vegas, better than the third they rolled out
A few are real nice, but either to similar to what they already wear or don't really fit with their core brand to stick around past this year:
-Edmonton, nice, but similar to what they have
-Colorado, cool nod to Quebec, but obviously won`t stick around
-Hartford, the worst Whalers jersey ever, but still not bad
-Florida, Already had one real close to this
-Minnesota, cool nod to the North Stars, but doesn`t fit their brand
-Montreal, nice sweater, but borderline sacreligious
-Nashville, already have a yellow sweater
-NYI, great, but not much new
-Washington, Love the jersey, could be in the above section
A few are pretty bad-
-Columbus, My eyes hurt
-Dallas, looks like a practice jersey
-Detroit, worst of the bunch
-NYR, Practice jersey
-Philly, I just don;t like it, but they went with something new at least
-SJ, Cool jersey, but I really don`t like grey
-TBL, Not awful, could be in the sectioin above. I just don`t like that era of jerseys from them
-Toronto, Looks like a Walmart knock off
-Jets, How did they not just go with red version
And a few just deserve some credit for getting creative:
-Arizona, They went really out there, I don`t like the jersey, but awesome job getting creative
-Anaheim, Same as above. Good on them for having some fun
-Vancouver, Without the gradient, this would be a really nice jersey. Wish they`d done someything else though
-LA, Solid mash up. looks surprisingly good
-STL, My eyes hurt, but I kind of like them. Glad they played around with their craziest jerseys. Wish they`d gone with the trumpet ones though.

Just... so good!
For reference, this is the sweater they used for inspiration. '78 North Stars
Nailed it!
I buy a decent amount of Leafs Jersey's, and I'm not touching this one. It's horrific.
Personally, I would have made the current jersey in St. Pat's colors or made the 2000's St. Pats Jersey in Blue and White.

Most of them are lame , a few good ones like Minnesota, Tampa, LA, Florida.
NYR and Detroit I think made theirs in protest lol because they are bad.
oh and f*** Colorado.

NHL, Adidas Unveil Reverse Retro Jerseys for All 31 Teams – SportsLogos.Net News - Unfold Times
MINNESOTA WILD
One other combo of eras, this time transcending franchises. The Minnesota Wild are tapping into their state’s NHL historical past by combining the emblem of their present staff with the uniform and hues of the previous Minnesota North Stars. Right here, the Wild are utilizing the jersey template worn in 1978 by the North Stars with the inexperienced shoulders and massive sleeve striping.

I’m not much of a jersey snob, but I really like about 90% of these.

Most seem at least OK, love the Wild one. Some bad misses though.
Leafs
Stars
Jets
Wings
really bad
Would have liked to see Tampa back in black with the yellow script. Not sure if it's just it's modelled by a girl but the Canucks one looks like a cheerleading jersey. The Sens jersey looks really strange without black shoulders.

What does "inexperienced" mean in graphic design terms?This link has a great side by side showing the sweater that inspired it and the reverse retro as well...

Avalanche, Wild, Sabres, Coyotes, Lightning (only nitpick is the blue obsession) are the best imo.
Whalers and Kings in the next tier, maybe Preds too.
After that Capitals, Jackets, Panthers, Sharks, Blues, Knights.
Meh for Oilers, Flames, Bruins, Habs, Devils, Islanders, Penguins, Flyers, Ottawa, Rangers, Blackhawks.
I'll wait and see on Stars and Leafs. Feel like they'll look better on ice than in the photos, tough to judge right now. Dallas had the right idea but blew it with all that white.
Jets are pretty bad.
Detroit is the worst. They can justify it by playing the iconic/"beautiful in its simplicity"card but whoever ultimately chose that as option A is just soulless.
Edit- Forgot the Ducks. I really like almost everything about it, just find the logo a bit cartoon-y and lame.

The more I see it the more I love it. Minnesota needs to buy the N* logo back from the NHL and at the very least use the template and color scheme going forward.
If the hornets/jets can do it, so should we.

I honestly hope Detroit doesn't sell a single jersey. Whoever, "designed", that thing should be fired and blacklisted.

Off topic, but that may be the best gif ever posted.

Here is my obligatory old man yelling at cloud moment: my family used to own season tickets to the Whalers and seeing the Hurricanes wear those sweaters makes my blood boil. Peter Karmanos can play in oncoming traffic.

Minny's colours are amazing but that Wild logo is still horrendous IMO
the Jets jersey had potential but the colours are bland
I actually love the Blues jersey...I'm a sucker for irony

Do you mean it'll be available on a t-shirt?
I don't have jersey money and don't like the Yotes but would buy that design on a tee in a heartbeat.
