0589: Heritage Classic by Mat Ware
We're stretching this week's theme into another Classic Saturday thanks to Mat Ware. He's created Heritage Classic jerseys for all seven Canadian teams, but I thought I'd share three of them today. First is what we're likely to see Ottawa wear to this year's Heritage Classic in Vancouver — only without Daniel Alfredsson.
Here's an Oilers jersey I know a lot of people would like to see a couple of times a year. Did you know Edmonton actually wore orange for a couple of seasons during their WHA days? It makes for a nice looking sweater. And in an NHL will more than its share of gold jerseys, this is certainly not out of the realm of possibility.
This series wraps up with a Winnipeg Jets fauxback, not unlike what the Flyers wore for their last Winter Classic appearance. Mat gives them the vintage white treatment alongside their original WHA logo to give the NHL's newest team a feeling of history. Which of the three do you like best?
