Better update Philly after you get yourself a pair of Cooperalls
Shannon you are the man, thanks for all that you do boss.
As a fellow jersey collector, for 30+ years, I think this era we are in now is the best when it comes to style and color. Especially with honoring heritage with the reverse retro line-ups.
My favs are Capitals, Penguins and Flames. Least are Flyers and Kraken for me.
I'm a Kraken fan and love their home/away jerseys and for some reason I can't stand the Reverse Retro ones.
@@DBSG1976 well the whole point of the reverse retro is to bank on nostalgia, which is really hard to do for a team that's only 2 years old.
In my opinion, the red line on the main jerseys ties the logo and the jersey together. Without that element, the tiny bit of red on the logo clashes with the entire rest of the jersey and sticks out like a sore thumb.
That Krakens jersey is dope
The Canucks reverse retro this season has grown on me in a huge way after seeing it in action. I absolutely love the deep blue.
Imagine a Seattle jersey with an actual kraken depicted in the pacific northwest native theme as a tie in to the thunderbirds. I dont think addias could make enough
I honestly like the addition of the fight strap. Makes hockey jerseys unique.
The Stars reverse retro looks great with the green that starts at the collar and goes down the arms
I would love to see Chicago and Detroit play each other with those jerseys
utter chaos, love it.
Please let this happen.
As a Leafs fan I bought the reverse retro 2.0 and I was not planning on buying any other teams but when I saw the LA Kings, I had to have it. In my opinion the Kings reverse retro is #1 in my book.
Most beautiful : Kings
Least beautiful , nearly horrible : Oilers
Great video !
Oilers is easily one of the ugliest.
Shannon holding up the stars jersey with the Christmas tree lights shiny through the material emulating stars is I’m sure unintentional…but that looked awesome
Seattle’s feels half finished to me, with the lack of shoulder patches or anything. Would’ve loved to see the stars from the Ironmen jersey either on the upper chest or as a shoulder patch.
Florida is the best, totally agree. Islander fish sticks is #2 in part because it reminds me of the giant fisherman head that was on the scoreboard that would blow smoke out of it's pipe when the Islanders scored a goal (also much of Long Island has great deep sea fishing).
The polarization of the robo penguin is interesting. I think nothing tops the skating penguin though. Its one of the best logos in sports. It tells you everything about the team if you were looking at it for the first time!
I’ve always loved the robo penguin
The Florida one is gorgeous in person. Super glad I got that one
Love these. I am really happy with this series of Reverse Retros. There's not many that I love, but I like or at least appreciate all of them. Chicago's and Detroits' are at my bottom but I am happy to see them. I don't think we should see the Sharks' again for a while but I again I liked seeing them. Adidas did a wonderful job.
I disagree with your opinion on St Louis. It's a great jersey with a nice historical back story
I just went into a jersey store the other day, and that Florida one really draws your eyes to it.
Thank you Shannon for repping the Flames pedestal jersey I love it too
Canucks and Sharks both wearing their retros in their game tonight. Looking forward to that.
what a good game!
didn't know flames were ever first! very nice though. That being said I agree those Florida jerseys are so sick.
Do you think the NJ logo is like that because it makes a mountain looking triangle? For the Rockies sake.
I didn't agree with a whole lot of your list, but having the Panthers at #1, I am 100% in agreement on. That jersey is absolutely gorgeous.
Also, I thought my Blue Jackets should have been at LEAST top 15.
Vancouver has the best reverse retro jersey and no-one can argue against it
Man Ottawa should have put scooby doo eyes on the front
I love the overall Canucks reverse retro uniform; the antique-looking dull gold on the gloves and helmet is awesome
I wonder if on the New Jersey RR if the horns are connected with the outline to form a triangle as an homage to the Rockies logo? Seems like the perfect time to do that, especially the first time being on a RR with the Rockies colors.
OR a triangle representing the 3 cities they’ve played in (KC, COL, & NJ) 🤔
@@mightyjerseys93i think you’re both right
Don't love the chicago one, but as a fan I'm still gonna buy it
I got myself a few RR jerseys this year and I gotta say, I love the Kings jersey! I wish they went back to purple and gold.
I still like the purple and black better.
What about the Kings R.R. on black jersey instead of white? That would look amazing.
@@speedshark2911 A good look. But probably wouldn't be my favorite.
A purple and black RR jersey would actually be nice if they chose to do another round of them.
As much as I disliked the Flyers' 07 fake 3D logo, I can imagine it would have looked gorgeous with modern materials and an actual 3D stitch.
Canes would be good in blue and green, making it retro
Dude, your business model is awesome. Every one of those is legit a business expense
As a die hard NY Sports fan that watches hockey in the New York metro area, Tri-State Area NY/NJ Rangers, Islanders, Devils I do have all 3 Reverse Retro 2.0 jerseys and all 3 look good in person I even got the beanie knit hats to match the Reverse Retro 2.0 jerseys
Stars looks unreal on the ice. The best one for sure.
Flames one is nice, I picked it up, I actually liked the pedestal jerseys back in the day.
He didn't mention it but there's the seam that disconnects the pedestal from the rest of the jersey. I like it but that's a bummer
@@harper-leightonscott4566 I don't like the seam either.
@@fantasticvoyage262
The originals had no seam at the pedestal back in the day. Great look.
@@speedshark2911 Right. Which is why it's puzzling that CCM could make that jersey without the ugly seam. And Adidas couldn't. Do the jerseys the players wear still have that seam?
Love that Canadiens shirt; almost pulled the trigger on buying one last week and definitely miss the Expos.
Is there a legitimate reason as to why Canucks are avoiding the dark navy jersey that they had in 97-2007. I remember it to be their absolute best. The royal blue / green combo they're rocking right now is nowhere near as cool.
I miss that one too.
Hot damn it.... Can't even get my hands on a Bruins retro in my size and Shannon's got all 32! It's hard being a hockey fan across the pond...
Colorado's jersey colors are also an homage to the Denver Spurs, who were in the Western Hockey League, and won the championship in the 1971-1972 season.
Can we all just appreciate the fact that this guy dropped thousands of dollars on hockey jerseys just to make this video for us.
Either that or him and Bettman are in cahoots together and it's really THG's fault for all of Bettman's dumb decisions.
What's 190 X 32?
Ducks are wearing orange pants with their RR, and it makes me wonder if they won’t adopt them as their new road whites because the Kings trainer said their old gold pants were very difficult to keep looking clean.
I never realized that the Montreal Canadiens throwback had anything to do with the Expos. Don't know how I missed that, getting old I guess. Florida's as number one I almost agree, except I really liked the old jersey with the " Moncton Wildcats" logo, hahaha.
The blackhawks and wings really grew on me
I still hate both just as much since the first time I saw them.
I really want to get the krakens reverse retro if i can find it on sale. I'd like to see them bring back the totems jersey for a 3rd or metropolitans.
I ordered the LA one and I absolutely love it
Same
Anaheim just needs a plum colored jersey with the D foot logo and they'll have pretty much exhausted every option they can
The D foot logo needs to be retired for good.
That same Black and Gold is also used by the Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Pirates.
The only benefit of the fight strap is its an easy catch for fake jerseys
Literally preordered the bruins reverse retro Bergeron on October 20th and it has yet to ship
It's going to take awhile if it's customized in twill. If it's blank or heat pressed, then you should get it soon.
Speaking of teams owning colors, I also felt it was wrong when Tampa switched to blue and white.For the same reason it would be wrong if an mlb team had white with black pinstripes.
OMG a Seattle TBirds Jersey would be amazing. Instant purchase (who am I trying to kid, they will all be instant purchase)
I love the Flames jersey enough i wish it was their main jersey lol Panthers and the Devils were my other favorites from this round.
I think the original Reebok/CCM with the flag patch shoulders is the best jersey they ever made but I'm with you, I'd rather see this reverse retro as a main then the vintage ones they wear now. There is something about their black jerseys. Even the original Koho black blasty is still a mean looking jersey.
My favorite retros are Boston,The Rangers and Florida.
Hey Shannon! I see you have a ton of the same hanger. I imagine you have a lot of experience trying out different kinds of hangers. Which do you prefer the most for your collection? I use these heavy duty plastic ones... they're much thicker than normal and they seem to be doing well but I don't know if way down the road if my jerseys will develop shoulder dimples from being hung on those. What do you recommend? Pittsburgh's is my favorite by far! I am actually a super fan of the robo pen and the yellow shoulders/sleeves are so vibrant. They look incredible on the ice. I bought like 5 of those and had hockey authentic sew up a bunch of different players LOL.
Every time I look at that Panthers jersey, I like it more. I didn't think anyone could beat Arizona from last year but this is the best Reverse Retro jersey.
the triangle in the devils logo might be a reference to the rockies
Idk why…..I LOVE that preds jersey! I’m a Canucks fan but I was stationed at Ft. Campbell from 02-09 and went to a lot of their games.
Got two jerseys for Christmas. The leafs reversible and the Pens Winter classic jersey.
I really want to pick up a few of those RR jerseys- need a Canucks, Panthers and Caps- those are top of my list!
Chicago’s I liked more on ice but COME ON how could we not already get a C-tomahawk jersey as a main logo?
I wanted that too. What a missed opportunity.
As a Chicago Fan....Detroit's jersey is great if you get a Larkin one with the Captain's C IMO. Also love the Stars jersey.
I love the Canes one but your right it is a third, hope they keep it
Go Canes!
Yes, Shannon. I Love The Cannon Jersey For Columbus. I Think That It Should Be Their Primary Jersey.
The points of the devils horns are closer together to make a triangle to touch on the rockies mountain logo.
No way. I was wondering why it was different
They were trying to make a little mountain with the connection to the rockies on the devils jersey logo
Winnipeg should've been higher. Why is the Gordon fisherman jersey is so high on the list? Orange drop looks weird.
I honestly liked that Detroit jersey more when I saw them playing in them, but a red and black logo on that jersey would have been so much better.
Caps middle of the pack is crazy, but it’s a small price to pay when you don’t consider the Wings as the worst. Big win!
You just like the Calgary Jersey because it reminds you of the Vancouver skate Jersey, same colors and style
I’m with you shannon. A white cbj cannon jersey would be a money printing machine.
I bought a size 54 RR 2.0 Devils to wear over my hockey equipment. The rest of my jerseys are size 50.
1979 is coincidentally the year Youppi! was introduced
As a Wings fan it sucks to see them fail on this years jersey again. I think the Bruins one is beautiful.
yeah.... lol i hate that our Wings retro looks just like the Hawks haha
That stitching on the Devils jersey makes a triangle, maybe a nod to the Mountain design on the Rockies jersey?
It would be nice if the NHL were to licence a new generation of the Heritage Sweaters that were produced in the early 1990s.
As a Chicago fan, I am totally unimpressed. Looks like a house league jersey
I like what they have done with most of the other teams.
The yellow Blues jersey is 🔥🔥🔥
The Lightning one looks so much better with the name and number but I understand your decision.
Good luck recapping this CBJ game
That one'll be easy. Just write "Tage" and then move on to the next game.
As a Chicago fan, they could hit the ice in hazmat suits for all I care as long as they scored a goal or two.
I am not usually one to buy a new jersey right away, but I had to get a Stars RR. It looks awesome. I have serious bias, but it's way nicer than the kitschy Florida jersey.
Dare do a power rankings of 63-1 for all reverse retro jerseys. See which is the worst and best of them all.
The Triangle, I Believe Was The Colorado Rockies Logo On Their Jerseys. Therefore, The Throwback
As a Wings fan, I agree that the Detroit one looks pretty horrible
I don't like the stitched line through the stomach on the Flames jersey that said it's the only thing I don't like. Its color scheme is brilliant and when you see the full uniform it's hard to argue they aren't top of the class this year.
Well done.... 👏.. yeah Detroit and Chicago probably the most Retro but without a logo not very interesting yeah more like a sweater than a Jersey...if you're going to be that Retro go with the Habs 💈Pole Sweater.
100% on Philly being last. As a fan since 1980, when I saw this I thought it was their new away jersey.
Not good when this is the time to think outside the box.
Speaking of that, I’d have put Vegas higher. Mainly because between this glow in the dark and their home gold, it’s about as Vega$ as you can get!!
They know how to think outside the box and scored big with this one!
Lastly, if LA would put that crown on a purple jersey, it would be #1!❤
I don't know if anything can ever pass up the robot penguin as my favorite logo. Not just in the NHL, but in sports in general. The only thing that comes close is the glorious monstrosity that is the Toronto Raptors 90s Barney the Velociraptor logo.
I don’t know why I really love the redwings jersey too 🤦🏻♀️ like why!? But I do!
It's so funny to me. The detroit Jersey market is so absurdly saturated with these F tier Retros, that many places are selling them in place of the regular Jerseys. My mother for a few months has been trying to get a good regular Bertuzzi for my step-dad for Christmas, but everywhere she went, they ONLY had the retros. And they always had stock xD I wonder why.
Where are they in stock at? I want to get a Bertuzzi size 52 or 54 to go with my Larkin RR. Maybe even get a blank custom stitched with Husso’s name.
@@gonuts4donuts The RRs are anywhere you would normally go in person to get a Jersey. If you want to find a regular, online through Rally House or GameDay Detroit is sometimes cheaper than the main guys. I considered the RR but the black is just so wrong and to hear the announcers say "wearing black for the first time in their history" shows me just how unprecedented and unnecessary these were
Nice rankings
Even though I like Philadelphia’s (as I also have mine) but I can still respect your opinion)
I also already bought some of them others BTW, and yes they are very nice
If Nashville had gone with blue I was in to buy one. Even as a Red Wings fan living in Tenenssee, their blue scheme is their best. But...........NOOOOOOO, yellow again. I like the Seattle color scheme and the Canucks versions are always fresh.
We want fish stix!
The devils tip make a mountain
I'd have The Arizona, Boston and Montreal jerseys much lower.
My Ranking:
32. Flyers
31. Blue Jackets

27. Jets
26. Ducks
25. Canadiens

10. Stars
9. Canucks
8. Oilers
7. Predators
6. Rangers
5. Wild

Speaking as a Red Wings fan, I wouldn't have been disappointed if that Wings throwback was dead last. Personally, I'd rather have that Flyers jersey....lol.
Here is my RR collection:
2020
Canes Aho
Minn Kaprizov
Wash Ovi
Yotes Kessel
2022
Pens Crosby
Bolts Kucherov (yet to arrive)
I’m not sure who has the disposable income to buy all these gimmicky money grabs the league keeps throwing at us, but all the power to them. Maybe lower ticket prices and fill some of those empty seats instead 🤔
Maybe they are doctors or lawyers?
I absolutely agree the Leafs’ reverse retro this time around is definitely underrated
Too bad Hockey is still like the 4th major sport in NA, otherwise Shannon would easily have 1M subscribers, you are definitively the goat of NHL coverage
Might be an unpopular opinion, but I think the Sharks/Seals jersey is top tier
The bland text really drags it down. If it was the original Golden Seals logo, then I would agree.
