30 best NHL jerseys of all-time

18. New Jersey Devils

Having only used three jersey variations in their history, choosing the best New Jersey Devils sweater of all time was both incredibly easy and incredibly challenging. They sported a design that featured Christmas colors at their inception and it was awful.

That color scheme lasted for a decade before they moved toward this more recognizable black, red and white design. Their emblem is clever in the sense that it features the devil horn and tail incorporated into an “N” that seemingly resembles “NJ”, but it’s a little less effective than other similar ideas throughout the league.

New Jersey really couldn’t go with any other color scheme, unless they were to incorporate orange into their designs. Having a devil as a mascot makes for color choices because warm tones are naturally so closely related. Having overcome that challenge and accepted that red is their go-to shade, the Devils have done their best to be creative and it doesn’t go unnoticed.

That said, this jersey is by no means a bad look. It’s something that stands out against the stark white ice and it features a creative aspect in the emblem. However, compared to the other red jerseys in the league, it doesn’t really hold a torch.
