5. Hispanic Heritage Night

There had to be one jersey on the bottom. It’s sad because there are aspects of this jersey that we love. The numbers are cool as heck. We love using a different font on things like the practice jerseys to bring out the creativity. Finding a new font is something that is incredibly important.

To be fair to this jersey, it’s hard to find the explanations of the jersey’s intricate details, making it harder to connect with the jersey. What’s the reason for the font of the numbers? What does the design on the front of the jersey mean?

The jersey is also very simplistic. Pulling an all-black jersey with such intricate designs seemed like the wrong decision. We would have loved a purple or maybe even a yellow for this jersey. It seems preposterous for the Devils to wear a yellow jersey. Fine, just make it red. Make things easy.

The black is a little too simple, and the Devils could go for something bold. These warm up jerseys don’t actually get NHL ice time, so going all out with the bold is always the right choice. We appreciate a lot of the parts of this design, but the lack of an explanation as to what the designs mean and the black jersey put it at the bottom of the list.
