The NHL All-Star Jerseys Are Here and They're Trash
The NHL All-Star Game is scheduled to take place at the Scotiabank Arena in Toronto on February 3rd, 2024.
Unfortunately, Connor Bedard won't be able to attend, and Jason Dickinson will be his replacement.
On the bright side, Bedard can recover from his injury at home while Dickinson wears the not-so-appealing All-Star jersey.
These jerseys have received a lot of backlash from NHL fans on various platforms due to their unattractive design.
Adidas' contract with the NHL will be ending after this season, and Fanatics will be the new outfitter for all NHL teams.
Interestingly, Adidas has been struggling to deliver quality specialty jerseys in the last year of the contract.
Unlike the Winter Classic and Heritage Classic jerseys, which have a unique kind of ugliness that appeals to fans, these All-Star jerseys are considered unbearably ugly.
Pictured below a mock-up of a jersey by a fan which may have been more tolerable:
There's absolutely nothing redeeming about the design, the decision-making of the NHL continues to be cartoonish, along with the design.
How quickly did Gary and the NHL sign off on these?
