Worst NHL "spelt out name" jersey

[CRAZY_4_NAZZY]

So with it still being the dog days of the offseason, I had this interesting debate with a friend regarding which team had the worst team jersey. The Rangers the original six team spelt out their name which has seemed normal for so long, but the NHL has had some wickedly boring and lazy designers where the logo simply was either the name of the team, the name wrapped around the logo, or an abbreviated name. 

 

Which team has the worst "named" jersey? In my opinion, Dallas, NYI, and Ottawa are tied for the worst ones. 

 

1) Anaheim

 

 

2) Boston

 

 

3) Buffalo

 

 

4) Calgary

 

 

5) Carolina

 

 

6) Chicago

 

 

7) Columbus

 

 

8) Colorado 

 

 

9) Dallas

 

 

10) Detroit

 

 

11) Edmonton 

 

 

12) Florida

 

 

13) LA

 

 

14) Minnesota

 

 

15) nashville

 

 

16) New Jersey

 

 

17) NYI

 

 

18) NYR

 

 

19)  Ottawa

 

 

20) Pittsburgh

 

 

21) Philadelphia

 

 

22) St Louis

 

 

23) Tampa

 

 

24) Toronto

 

 

25) Vancouver

 

 

26) Vegas's leaked/rumored reverse retro

 

 

27) Washington

 

 

28) Winnipeg

 

 

Fortunately, the Montreal, Arizona, San Jose, and a few other teams have not made the mistake to make such horrid jerseys.

Calgary and Jersey take the cake for me. But yes they are practically all hideous  

[Drive-By Body Pierce]

Probably easier to ask which ones are NOT hideous.

[Master Mind]

So many hideous jerseys!

 

Smashville and the Jersey jersey probably the worst of the bunch.

[Angry Goose]

Minnesota’s is a beaut.  Dont mind Dallas either.  Capitals is the best logo of them all.

Went with Anaheim just because that was their home and away logo/jersey for way too long. Really not a fan of their color scheme either. Their old colors were sooo much better.

 

Close second for me is Washington because that logo is super boring. Eagle was rad. In red/white/blue the eagle would be sick. Atleast WSH has decent colors.

 

Not far behind are the "bolts" and "sens". Like come on! Use your full or actual name! Too hokey-pokey for me.

Hmmm, will have to think about this before I vote. I'd have to say T is a bit off for me. Like wth is "T"? If we were talking helmets, its an instant no brainer. Does Stone's have some sort of air lift feature...doesn't even look like it's on his head.

Voted "Smashville"

 

Come on. Looks like that could almost be prison gear...PROPERTY OF.

 

Ew, Jersey too.

[Bell]

The fact the Nashville owner let them put SMASHVILLE on an NHL sweater, then design it like that and expect fans to purchase it is hilarious.

[Fanuck]

Veancouver?

 

That's probably the worst. 

[Ghostsof1915]

The Jersey Jersey is hilarious.

 

I liked the Pittsburgh ones with the art deco penguin.

[D.B Cooper]

It’s between Nashville, Jersey and Vancouver. 
I hate to be that guy, but the orca is absolutely awful, and putting Vancouver above it looks so dumb.  
We have one of the worst jerseys in there he league, which sucks because we have two other logos we could use that are MUCH better.

TORONTO ARETNAS

(Aside: I wouldn't care if Pronger wore a tutu; if he was a Canuck all those years.)

Yeah, Smashville's font is atrocious, while "Jersey Jersey"?  Come on, Marty (loved him as a player, but while the actual word looks nice with the handwriting font, the idea of the "Jersey jersey" just sounds dumb, and the color scheme is an eyesore).  Distant HM's are Buffalo and Colorado (not a fan of either's word font).

Calgary’s look like one of the unlicensed knockoff jerseys from Canadian Tire.

Looks worse because of the choice of model.

[DeNiro]

Any one that puts a nickname on it for me. The Smashville and Bolts ones are just stupid.

 

Jersey is right up there too.
