Ugliest 3rd Jersey I've ever seen

[Jasper84 333]

Not sure if these have been posted before, but I don't think I've ever seen an uglier jersey.

Lovin' that blue block behind their numbers.

yes it has been noted before, however it was thrown into the more important issue of a tendon being sliced.

first thing that came to my mind:

No wonder Halak's GAA is skyrocketing.

they are really horrible. They remind me of pajamas.....

[TheCaptain19 49]

there IS a point where vintage does not equal cool.

My question is.......... why are two Canadiens both chasing the puck/player behind the net? Didn't their coach teach them positioning? and F1,F2, F3 roles?

Also, where the hell is Thomas looking if the Canadiens are skating where they are? Is there a hottie in the stands or something?

First time I saw them I thought they were prison uniforms.

What really takes the cake, though, is they're one "k" away from having "Cack" on the front of their jerseys.

I guess I wasn't the only one trying to think up a "CAC" joke.

Yeah, those are some of the Canadians' centennial jerseys. Folks were somewhat crazy back in the day, I guess.

Thankfully, we won't have to see them for another hundred years.

I think it looks kinda cool. The only thing I don't like is the incredibly similar logo to the Maple Leafs.

[SouthernWingsFan 854]

I need a haircut! Those jerseys make me think I'm at a barber shop.

They're using their vintage jerseys twice each in the season, these'll actually be out for another game.

The stripes are a little bit too much though, indeed. The centennial throwbacks I really like are their 1915 uniforms (the ones with the red CA logo).

[Holmstrom96 347]

WTF? Can someone confirm that these are for real?

[maltbymaniac 13]

you see the pics dont ya. there real...REAL UGLY.barf

[KrazyGangsta 79]

When that game was airing and I opened the TV, I had thought it was the maple leafs against boston until i saw at the corner MTL ... I was like WTF !!! Lmfao, that jersey is plain ugly they should get fined and suspend that jersey to ever be in a game again.

[betterREDthandead 58]

They should make the pants stripey too.

1912-13.

I don't know... I actually like the jerseys. I think with a less-stripey sock, it might look good. It's good for an occasional vintage look but it shouldn't be an every day thing. The old turn of the century stripes, the ugly uniforms of the 70's... they work today as the once in a while vintage look but would be bad as a constant.

I am strangely amazed at how this didn't cause Maple Leaf fans to go into a state of pandemonium. I know this is a throwback, but to have their arch-nemesis daunting a blue maple leaf on their sweater, even if they look like are inmate suits...could lead to a civil war!

oh.my.god. They remind me of the pajamas kids wear on Christmas eve and stuff. Hideous. Wow.

[Chunkylover 26]

Yeah, but it's a traditional jersey so it gets a pass. I thought the candy cane socks at the Winter Classic were kind of cheesy but that's looking at them through a modern paradigm which is not appropriate when judging vintage specimens.

For example, the Coliseum in Rome was designed using column designs from three different Greek architectural periods. The Romans found the design attractive because they valued the sort of inclusiveness it represented, tying together the three different time periods. The Greeks however would have thought it foolish because they did not have the same values.

That said, yeah from our modern era of cool and aggressive jerseys, that Montreal one looks goofy, but it is a throwback and it's value is in recognizing the Habs heritage.

That was pretty brutal. I don't know if they're in the same league as Nashville's mustard yellow and Boston's teddy bear, but its close.
