30 best NHL jerseys of all-time

24. San Jose Sharks

In recent years the San Jose Sharks have moved toward a more simplistic jersey that allows the eye to focus on the emblem. Having re-worked their traditional crest to now include the entire body of a shark, San Jose drastically improved their jersey.

Overall the idea of having a shark bite into a hockey stick is a stereotypical way to portray an animal mascot in the NHL, but it works a lot better now that it incorporates the full shark body.

They have managed to avoid getting too wrapped up in the representation of the shark, too, which is commendable. Keeping with an overall simplistic style, this logo depicts a shark without beating viewers over the head with it. There is not an emphasis on minuscule details that no one, outside of marine biologists, is truly concerned about.

Their traditional teal jersey design is nice in the sense that it is a color not often used in hockey, but the black style still has hints of their signature throughout. The shark is still their easy to identify teal color and it is increasingly more noticeable with the basic black background as opposed to other options.

The step in a different direction make this jersey San Jose’s best.
