I do miss the old battle of Quebec. They were so much fun to watch on CBC French

I hate Winnipegs new look. The league should step in and get their originals to them.

Hell Arizona is always one step away from bankruptcy, they should sell them back to Winnipeg.

- Mentalorgasm5



Pretty sure Winnipeg’s all time stays and Arizona’s are two different entities.

Speaking of crazy uniform/color/logo changes, may I present the Vancouver Canucks.
- JetpackJesus


I'm a fan of the 90's "skate" logo. The originals were the best. They were subtle, probably a little too subtle for most people. The rink actually forms a "C". And at least they came around in the end to the original color palette and the rink jerseys as 3rds. The "C" is much more pronounced on the brand new ones.

They shouldn't, nor should Carolina had worn Hartford uniforms.

Thornton played at the same time as Crosby. It's like "The Highlander" there can be only one.

It's a stupid word.

Super Mario played when Gretzky played too.


You can have multiple generational talents.


Hell Edmonton had three in Gretzky, Messier, and Coffey.

89-97 was an awesome run.

Schopp made a great point on jerseys. He said home teams should wear white so you get the variety of the visiting teams colors. So boring getting the Sabres dark jerseys and visitors whites every game.

- Hatboro_Swords


That's only for spoiled season ticket holders. And let's be honest they likely watch away games too, so what's the point? It's not like they're the Cowboys and wear white 15 weeks a year.

Yeah, Winnipeg bought their history back from the coyotes. They own the OG Jets jerseys, I believe

Per wiki it was only Hartford and Philly but I remember hockey cards with Vancouver players wearing them.

Pretty sure the NHL controls that.

If Quebec or Hartford we’re to ever get a team back, the records revert back.

I confused by the wording.

Arizona owns the rights to the original Jets' logo/jerseys

Unless this is a recent develop (last 16ish months) Arizona owns the originals.

They don’t. Winnipeg does. The NHL controls that.


There’s a reason Dale Hawerchuk isn’t listed as Arizona’s all time point leader, Shane Doan is.

Yeah, just looked it up. It's weird. Wpg was allowed to use the the original jerseys for the heritage classic, but az still owns the history

It’s the only thing I’ll ever agree with him with and I’ve been saying it for years.

It’s home whites........period end of story.

- dadeadhead

Agreed. There are some things even Schopp can't get wrong.

They don’t own the history.

Arizona’s all time point leader is Shane Doan.


Hawerchuk is nowhere to be found.

If Quebec comes back into the league they’ll get their name and stats back.

Definitely, like "compete" as in "he's got great 'compete'."
