I totally blanked Eaves was a duck now

He's been a huge part of their power play and success overall. Had a career year this year including 30 goals (between Dallas and Anaheim) Ducks are coming out of the west.

Dear NHL uniform designers and marketing people living in the year 2017,

It's a cycle, don't forget this "Gems"

But getting bakc to your point, I totally agree. Hate how they try to give a sporty look to sweaters and make them just waaay to noisy, for my taste. CBJ, Caps, Anaheim, Calgary, Ottawa's previous unis. the list goes on and on. 

I was thinking about the sharks teal uni and was thinking they could use a thick solid orange stripe somewhere along the elbows, the current thin one, just doesn't cut it for me.

Every era has its own  WTF sweater design.

Oh, for sure. I just feel that, on the whole, we've kind of lost sight of what makes great uniforms great. Personally, I like bold, clean, restrained/tasteful, straightforward. Like you, I think the Flames' and Ducks' current looks are way too noisy. Do you really need vertical piping on the flanks? Keep it simple, stupid!

You know what it is? It's Michael Bay. These jerseys are Michael Bay jerseys.

The Reebok crap 10 years ago was the worst thing to happen to NHL jerseys.  It added unnecessary stripes everywhere, especially in the armpit region.  Jerseys are ugly now.

Uh, Phrasing. lol

I mean, I like when they experiment, for example our '14 Winter Classic or Wild's 3rd jersey, and, I know, they have a Classic old style feel to them, but it just feels like a hockey sweater.

I love the simplicity of our jerseys, but the thing I like the most, is the "Red Wings" on our white jersey, you know, the red sleeves. Always loved the contrast, and really haven't seen other team do this.
