Next season will see at least four outdoor NHL games. Today, Lucas Daitchman presents jerseys sets for each one — the Heritage Classic, the new Centennial Classic, the Winter Classic and the Stadium Series. Which set is your favorite?
Could anything beat this sweater for the Jets at the Heritage Classic in Winnipeg next season? Greydon Ginter has implemented a classic look in the Edge style.
Jets CEO Mark Chipman has said we shouldn't expect anything new with regard to the sweaters planned for the 2016 NHL Heritage Classic in Winnipeg. But what if? Jon Cardner's designs might be good enough to make them think twice.
I know outdoor game concepts are usually reserved for Saturdays but this one couldn't wait. Yesterday the NHL announced the 2016 NHL Heritage Classic will see the Winnipeg Jets hosting the Edmonton Oilers in October.
Rob Siergiej wasted no time in mocking up a uniform set for the event. The jerseys are based on what the clubs wore in 1972 when they originally made their WHA debuts. In fact, this is what Jets chairman Mark Chipman has said to expect. Should be a great looking match-up!
And as a bonus, Rob also put together this set, which is also inspired by the teams' WHA days.
