I found this EA Sports jersey gallery in the bulletins at Paul Lukas' always-entertaining Uni Watch Blog. Now as practically every team has redesigned their own Reebok Edge jersey, looks like the Devils will be identical, joining only about 5 or 6 other teams that didn't change their look.
Every new look team team had a press conference showing off their new kits, and Vancouver even conned a few thousand fans to come to the rink to be reminded their favorite team is "from Vancouver." Meanwhile, the Devils roll along with business as usual: no fanfare, no major announcement, and most importantly, no changes. (The Devils are only one of three teams to never have a 3rd/alt jersey, btw.)
As far as the new jerseys, I really like the Bruins new look, and they'll really look good losing 50 games this season. I'm glad Washington went back to the "Capitals" crest, ditching what was the ugliest jersey in the league. Others I dig: Calgary and Columbus. Jerseys I think look like shit: the new Avs, Stars, Isles and Sharks, who once had one of the coolest logos in sports until they Disneyed it up. I could live with the Canucks sweaters if they two-toned the lettering with green, making the stripes look not so out of place.
