Both the Red Wings and Blackhawks unveiled their throwback jerseys for the 2009 Winter Classic at Wrigley Field. Here is the Wings jersey: And here is the Blackhawks jersey: Thoughts?

THEY SUCK! HORRID LOOKING. Bad enough they went to the new RBK Edge jerseys. There isn't a team in the league that has what I would call a decent looking jersey. Wings and Blues are ok, but that slim-cut look is totally GAY. I have over 40 game-worn's in my collection, and you will NEVER see one of these in there! Hope some day they will go back to the traditional style. That was one of the cool things about hockey vs. other sports, the unique uniforms. Now, they all look like PRACTICE jerseys. Players all hate them too...Hate euro look and style of play. Good 'ole days are gone I guess.

I agree with you about the RBK Edge jerseys. Their prices are outrageous, the material is too thin and they are stitched terribly. I also can't stand the shirt tail (which was kept even after the league rejected having the jerseys tucked in) and how RBK seems to reuse the same 6 patterns for nearly every non-Original 6 jersey. The old CCM jerseys were miles better.
However, I do like how the Wings and Hawks throwbacks look in the pictures. And I'm reading the thread at gameworn.net about those jerseys, and I don't see anything that confirms that the Wings will wear white pants. The red would look much better, even if the team wore white pants back then.

The press release article did not specify the pants, but included in the photos were white pants and barber-pole stlye white socks w/ red stripes. After looking at them again, I guess the Chicago jersey is "ok", but still don't like the Wings. Too plain. Yeh, the thing I hate most about the RBK jerseys is that tail. Just doesn't look right. Overall, new jerseys just too European looking. UGGGGHHHHHH! Look more like balerinas than hockey players.
