Hometown Remix jerseys receive rave reviews from NHL players

The San Jose Sharks will debut one of their boldest new looks when they host the Calgary Flames on Monday (9 p.m. ET; NBCSCA, SN+, TVAS). They are using navy blue, a lighter shade of teal. Shark teeth, with pink gums, like the shark head on Shark Tank, bite around sleeves and socks. “I think it’s fun when we do different things,” forward Will Smith said. “It’s pretty brilliant. I’m sure the fans will like it and can’t wait to see what it looks like on the ice.” The “SJ” branding is front and center, with a shark swimming between the letters, its jaws wide open. “I really like the logo,” said Capt. Macklin Celebrini. The Washington Capitals brought back the Capital Dome logo, with a palette of layered blues, stark bronze, and front gray. “I love it,” forward Alex Tuch said. “Different color scheme. It’s cool. I like the logo. It’s fun. It’s exciting.” Forward Tom Wilson grew up watching teammate Alex Ovechkin wear the Capital Dome logo on a black jersey. “It’s great to see that logo come back,” he said. Forward Patrick Kane never wore a green jersey during a game with the Chicago Blackhawks from 2007-23. But for St. Patrick’s Day, the Blackhawks wore green in warmups and the Chicago River was dyed the color. Now that Kane has returned to Chicago after signing as a free agent during the offseason, it seems fitting that the Blackhawks debut in a green jersey against the Colorado Avalanche on Monday (8 p.m. ET; CHSH+, ALT). “A little early in St. Patty,” Blackhawks captain Connor Bedard said. “I think they look good and I think they’ve done something similar in the past, which is cool, I’m really excited to try it on tonight.”
