The recent release of the Los Angeles Kings<\/a> and Colorado Avalanche<\/a> Stadium Series jerseys has livened up the ugly-jersey debate. Many fans note that the Kings jerseys look like a cheap version of the Gretzky-era jerseys, while the Avalanche released jerseys that simply look like Pepsi cans. These jerseys make one think what the ugliest jerseys in each team’s franchise could be. Today, we’ll take a look at the ugliest jersey from the NHL Pacific Division.<\/p>\n

Before we look, though, it’s important to remember that ugly jerseys aren’t a bad thing. They should be worn like a badge of honour, for the humour. Much like you would wear an ugly sweater at Christmas time, and as we all know hockey season is better than Christmas.<\/p>\n

Ugliest Jerseys in the NHL Pacific Division<\/h2>\n

Anaheim Ducks<\/h3>\n

The Anaheim Ducks<\/a> entered the NHL in the 1993-1994 season. In 26 seasons they have had several different jerseys that go from the iconic eggplant and jade to the current bright orange third jerseys. They have had roughly 12 different jersey styles depending on how you look at it. The ugliest by far is the “Wild Wing through the ice jersey”.<\/p>\n

The jersey depicts the Ducks long-time mascot ‘Wild Wing’ breaking through a sheet of ice. It’s not ugly, per se, but it seems very dated. Screaming of the early 1990s, from the font for the player’s names to the very bright colors chosen. It’s not the worst on the list but surely the worst in Ducks history.<\/p>\n

Arizona Coyotes<\/h3>\n

The Arizona Coyotes<\/a> started to play in the desert after the first incarnation of the Winnipeg Jets left Canada to come south in the 1996 season. They have had some interesting jerseys, usually a maroon and white combination with a coyote head howling. Very simple but still appealing. The ugliest jersey in the franchise was also the first in franchise history. Its black green and maroon and depicts a kachina-style coyote very unique to the southwest.<\/p>\n
