Dark is home and white is away?

I want to see Colorado wear the Nordiques uni against Montreal.

The Avs and Habs had an exhibition game at the Colisée last year, and they were toying with the idea of having Colorado wear Nordiques uniforms, but they decided against it.

Smart move. While I could see 50% of the crowd loving it, the 50% that hated it could cause some serious damage...

It's too long of an article to post, so I'll avoid doing that, but this article explains the whole story ...

Not all teams are doing it, so Max might be SOL about seeing the oldschool Penguins unis. Personally, I'm praying that the Canucks go with the Cooperalls for their retro uniform.

I guess the Canucks are going with the 'Flying V' logo for the throwback.

 

That rink logo kicks some maximum ass, I'm hoping they'll go with it.

 

That disappoints me about the Penguins.

That's what I was thinking, seeing as that's one of CCM's more recent "heritage jerseys"

 

As for who will don the retro jerseys (from the article that nl5xsk1 posted previously):

As part of a special marketing plan next year, the St. Louis Blues, Montreal Canadiens, Los Angeles Kings, Vancouver Canucks, New York Rangers and Boston Bruins will don throwback sweaters in games in an effort to take the fans on a journey back in time.

I suppose that, in theory, the Blues could wear the Scouts sweaters, but I think that they'll probably just go with their expansion look. The Canadiens... I dunno - the Maroons, maybe? Whatever it is, I think they'll be wearing them on Nov 22 at Commonwealth Stadium.
