The NHL released the ASG jerseys for the 2018 Honda All Star Classic and they are…interesting?

Fan Poll Friday



The NHLโ€™s newest ASG jerseys hit everyoneโ€™s eyes on Wednesday this week and the reaction has been mixed. Some people love them, some people hate them and there doesnโ€™t appear to be an in between. The NHL, after a 2 year hiatus brought back some neon colors for the Atlantic and Metropolitan teams for 2018. The Pacific and Central look like they are wearing a leftover Flyers jersey concept (which this writer is partial to, seeing he grew up watching hockey in the 80โ€™s), avoiding the purple and neon of their brethren in the Eastern Conference.

The ASG jerseys are always an interesting look and generate a lot of buzz when they are released. The NHL simplified them last season, but they were fairly bland. Maybe itโ€™s time for the NHL to go back to a simple color scheme, one that worked for years on end, just with a different look every few years. At least they got the play of the game right with the 3 on 3 game play and the teams complied by division.
