The wild have I think the best looking jersey.

[Nogatco Rd]

It’s a shame they couldn’t keep the “North Stars” name and the OG logo; something about the new logo in green/yellow is a bit off.

A little black might have been a nice touch but that might bring them too close to Dallas’ colors for their liking.

Pics for reference:

Wild

North Stars

I like the touch of black in the later version of the jerseys. There isn't a North Stars jersey I dislike.

The dark green are better than the lime green jersey's

 

[nonamejay]

Not sure if tonight’s game is the jersey they always use but it’s a beautiful jersey. Absolutely love them. Really brings the nostalgia back of the North stars.

I pretty much said this to my parents last weekend, as I watched the VOD of TBL - MIN game. I also educated them on the intricacies of the Wild logo.

 

[HisIceness]

Well, it's all subjective but you are overwhelmingly in the minority with that opinion, especially when holding up the Northstars as your main example.

I'm well aware.

me and @Canucks LB vote for Anaheim


make a poll, someone .. @SeanMoneyHands ?

Eat fresh

Ah yes. The Minnesota eat fresh, sponsored by Subway.

Yeah, because corporations definitely own colour schemes like.... green and gold

Using a colour scheme that a corporation also uses means the jerseys and logo are bad, automatically... right? New York Pepsis, am I doing this right??

But name one throwback that isn't a winner?

I do think the 80s and 90s were a very good time for jersey designs in general, but there are always some exceptions:

Not to mention a risk of the leagues' teams' looks becoming too similar and stale:

But to answer your question:

These all need to be left behind for good, in my opinion

 

[Moose Head]

Saw the OT winner last night, and gotta admit, I loved the Wild jersey.

 

[Bunch of Jurcos]

Seattle’s home jersey is damn beautiful. Calgary’s third jersey that they wore when Carolina played them this year was amazing as well.

 

[Ghost of Murph]

Vancouver and Calgary black alternates give the Minnesota alternates a run for the money. All three kick ass. The Minnesota ones are exceptional. Everything about them, including the numbers, really pop.

 

[Marlowe Syn]

I have always loved the Wild logo. The sweaters themselves have been at best a mixed bag at best.

As an old school fan, the North Stars are near and dear. So I appreciate the nostalgia involved, and I do like them, but these sweaters never pulled at my purchase strings. I got a North Star Broten road jersey already.

If the Wild want to continue the nostalgia train in the near future, thinking a Minnesota Fighting Wild alt jersey. Although I actually like to see some more original design alts in the future personally.

 

[brentashton]

They don't wear them all the time, and I'm not sure the rhyme or reason for when they do.

They should. They are the nicest by a country mile.

 

[elmaco]

Home jersey still looks like ass, the 3rd and away shirts are cool.

 

[bossram]

The Wild's 3rd greens are fantastic. More teams need some cooler colour combos. I like the forest green homes too.

Too many royal blue uniforms. And please, NO MORE black primaries. Awful. Boring.

I loosened my purse strings for the green reverse retro the day it was announced, love it and needed a replacement for my yellowing North Stars jersey.

I also think it would be cool to see some more original designs, although if they did a throwback to the MN Moose and pulled out a purple and black jersey, I would be all over it. I wish the MN PWHL team would have taken advantage of that history and the fact that they have purple, but not a fan of what they came up with sadly.

Bro, if you like them, go ahead and like them.

For me, the first thing that comes to mind is subway when I look at these uniforms. Nothing can be done to get that out of my mind. I never said anything about a corporate colour scheme or whether it's a bad thing. Just said it looks alot like subway, and I was just trying to have some fun with it.

Lighten up.

All good. It's more that SO MANY people make those Subway comparisons, seemingly as if to critique the jerseys as though they don't look good, not your comment specifically - just kinda touches a nerve with me

I mean, most nice colour schemes in sports are going to be used by major companies as well, because well... they look good!

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Buffalo's goat head and the Sens black jerseys are the best in the league

You can tell the colour scheme I like

 

[kvladimir]

While we're on the subject: jerseys I think look better than the Wild's:

2021-22 Detroit Red Wings - The (unofficial) NHL Uniform Database

2021-22 Buffalo Sabres - The (unofficial) NHL Uniform Database

2021-22 Montreal Canadiens - The (unofficial) NHL Uniform Database

2021-22 New York Rangers - The (unofficial) NHL Uniform Database

2024-25 Boston Bruins - The (unofficial) NHL Uniform Database

1991-92 San Jose Sharks - The (unofficial) NHL Uniform Database

RR1 for Flyers

RR2 for Panthers

RR2 for Kings

Not an insult, as I hope I've made clear

Green is underrated and underutilized in hockey.

The Everett Silvertips had the best jerseys/uniforms I think In 2019

I disagree. Only 2/3 of the league using blue and white/blue and red/blue and blue/black isn’t enough. I was so happy when the Utah team picked the unused Jets prototype

 

[ArmadilloThumb]

As far as Minnesota goes I really think their 1969 - 1972 were the best. Clean, classic design that gave them a very Original Six vibe that well represents a very long and old hockey tradition in the state.

 

[kvladimir]

Hot take:

>

 

[UnSandvich]

I've always had a soft spot for the Wild jerseys. Another one that I feel was pretty underrated was the Rangers navy blue & cream 3rd jersey from 2010-17. Just a good, classic-looking jersey

 

[Voight]

Pretty much.

I know nostalgia nerds love throwbacks and look, I'm fine with it once a year, but I really don't want to see 1990 multiple times a season. Just because something was worn in 1990 doesn't mean it looks good today.

Excuse me?

These still go hard

 

[HisIceness]

Excuse me?

These still go hard

You know what? I used to be a fan of the Starter jackets myself. Man I remember how hot those were growing up, even in the 00s they still had some luster.
