These jerseys are interesting to say the least. There has been many different reactions on twitter from Winnipeg Fans. As of now it looks to be split. Some people are a little disappointed, while some like the color scheme and logo.

One thing is for certain, the NHL hit the nail on the head with the timing of the release. There is no better time to release new gear, especially jerseys, than right before the holiday season.
