![]() Thankfully, the Preds decided to ask the question: What if we just took that jersey and changed the shade of yellow?Īnd the answer to that is: Yes, please do that. The Predators' "Grey Poupon" third jersey from 2001-07 with the cartoonish saber-tooth tiger was routinely panned for mostly the color but also how the color with the logo just didn't really connect. It's gorgeous, it's wonderful, and it once again makes me wish the Wild were named the North Stars because what's better than our own nostalgia? This time around it's a green jersey done in the style of the North Stars jerseys from 1978-88. It was a huge hit, and Wild fans could not get enough. The colors and jersey design were all from back in the day when they skated in Bloomington at the Met Center. In 2021's Reverse Retro campaign, the Wild were able to create a white Wild jersey with all the accouterments of the North Stars. A black jersey with green sleeves and white lines makes it a nearly perfect replication with flipped colors from the days they skated at Reunion Arena and showed that the NHL was there to stay in Dallas. In a true Reverse Retro move, they took that jersey and flipped the colors. ![]() When the Minnesota North Stars moved to Dallas, they changed their jerseys and that original white jersey with the sleeve lines, and the state of Texas logo with a star and capital "D" took its place. It looks bold and clean, and it very carefully doesn't use the old Rockies logo. ![]() Once they're done using these jerseys, they should turn it into the new state flag. Using those colors and the "C" with the style of the original Avalanche jersey just works. That said, the Colorado Rockies of the NHL had superb colors and the "C" of the Colorado state flag. Denver has an NHL history, but it doesn't belong to the Avs. Hey, it's another reference to a team that became the New Jersey Devils. ![]()
