The Jersey History of the Colorado Avalanche 

I gotta say the avs have nailed most of their jerseys in my opinion

The Avs vice president Declan Bolger was asked this May about bringing back the Nordiques jersey and mentioned how there was preliminary talks in doing so for the 25th anniversary. He mentioned Carolina using the Whalers jersey and how cool that was. Kadri jumped on and supported the idea.

They should wear the Quebec jersey when they play the New Jersey Devils wearing Rockies jerseys.

That 2020 stadium jersey is actually awesome. As a Dallas fan, that pains me. But can’t deny a bold and bad ass jersey design

It would be cool to see Quebec vs the old Whalers Jersey, or maybe The Devils could wear a Rockies jersey at a game in Denver. Something like that.

Hooray! Shadow got his seat back

The Foot needs to be on a third uniform. I loved that logo

That lighter color from the first season matched Roy’s Montreal pads so well that he didn’t even swap them out after the trade. I also kind of liked the look with the dark helmets at home in their first game.

Love the collection. Had a Valerie Kamansky jersey back 1999. Loved the shit out of it.

Aves without a doubt in my top 5 Jersey's. they have something that nobody else has and do it well

Bring back the foot!

Modify the Nordiques logo from an N to an A. All the throwback feels while keeping it Avalanche.

That Black Ice jersey is LEGIT! Also they need to bring back the foot

The "Rockies" third is so clean, should become their primary

I cant believe you don't have the burgundy!! That's the best jersey

Great work and much appreciated.

The Rockies look is one of my favorites of all time. Colorado has a great look.

When they first came out, the blue on the shoulders were shiney blue and it was pure 90s. That was sharo

Been waiting for this one

Being at the 2020 stadium series and seeing the jerseys in person on the ice and people wearing them in the stands I have to admit they’re pretty solid jerseys. Wasn’t a fan at first but they definitely grew on me that night!

That black jersey reminds me of the Vancouver 3rd from 2003-04

I love the third jersey from this season. Looks so much better on ice.

The Nordiques jerseys looked great. I was happy back in 2020 when the Reverse Retro were of the style of the Nordiques. The Yeti logo needs to comeback.

The early authentics by Starter were awesome; they had this sheen to them that set them apart from the CCM jerseys. Loved that the numbers were a unique style too.

My dream Avs jersey would be the "Rockies" 3rd, but with the burgundy instead of the dark blue. Blue jerseys are everywhere in the NHL, but burgundy? Pretty much only the Yotes

26 yr Avs fan here,.... the Rockies Throwback is by far the best !!

Great collection! Thanks for sharing!👍

I'm a big fan of the 2016 stadium series. Looks clean

I miss hockey 🏒 and my Avs 😢 I love ❤️ the Quebec Jersey. I have my ideas 💡 about a design...

I can't speak for all of us Avs fans, but I loved how they basically went back to the original design when the Adidas switch was made. That design is classic, and reminds us of the days of Sakic, Forsberg, Roy, Foote and more, as in the Cups. The Reeboks were just odd to me. The original burgundy 3rd was great, but the current one is here to stay. I really hope we don't change it up, apart from doing a Nordiques throwback. The current design and third are great. Go Avs!

Three things: One, that black jersey at :55 is actually pretty awesome, I'd like one. Two, the burgundy 3rd with the Colorado wordmark is a very underappreciated jersey, but it's one of my favorites. Three, I still haven't fully accepted the loss of the bigfoot shoulder logo, it just complements the jersey so much better than the "C". I understand why they did it, but I want the old one back. Just IMO.

Yes! I knew the Avs burgundy was lighter at one time but I could never find any official confirmation on jersey databases or anything. Anyway, I had one of those. A Starter Roy jersey. I ended up giving it away.

That's starter black one is awesome! Still looking for a decent priced blank stadium

The part with the second stadium jersey is the burgundy is a different shade from the inner A to the bottom. I think it makes it look like a skirt.

Can’t wait for the history of Vegas jerseys!!!

You could’ve thrown in that Colorado Eagles jersey from affiliation night 😉

I am the happy owner of one of the 1995-96 Green/Blue and White Nordiques prototype jerseys. Personally thought they were okay as far as a branding change but the color scheme seemed off. The NHL already had the Whalers (who wore similar colors at the time) and the Vancouver Canucks (who would go back to their original colors a few years later). Not a bad looking jersey but I wish they didnt get rid of the Nordiques igloo.

Nice review!

Yeah you look at the 1996 burgundy and it looks different in photos. I wonder if that was a team change or a manufacturer color adjustment?

I would love to see that third jersey change to the main jerseys but I think they should add some things from the old logo to It like put the swooping puck around the mountains and maybe add some burgundy to the jersey

My biggest problem with the current away is that the only blue on the away is the socks and the collar if the jersey just makes it look plain. I wish there was a blue stripe along the gray. Really would just look so much better

Avs fan in Colorado, I saw a fully green avs fashion jersey in a mall once

Those Vintage line reproductions of the original Starter jerseys are so far off it’s crazy. The inaugural (and I think for a couple seasons after?) jerseys were made out of a shimmering material that looked all kinds of rad. Best jersey of the franchise.

Colorado Avalanche had a decent look after accepting the move from Quebec. Best logo is the current one with the A. The fashion ones look sharp and could use the blue as a road and black as home. The latest stadium series jersey looks more like something that be worn in another Star Trek or some kind of space show or movie. Not a hockey jersey.

Looking forward to the Jets video!

I'd love to see a Nordiques jersey for the Avs, whether it be just for the year or permanently. If that doesn't pan out, I think a more permanent shoulder patch of the Nordiques would be pretty cool.

I hope they wear the Nordiques logo more often. And they could play some home games in Quebec city from time to time

That black ice looks SO good!

2:33 you called it! hahaha

I’ve never bought a jersey before but how hard would it be to purchase that same exact Joe Sakic jersey when they first came out?

Fun fact that I'm not sure is super well spread the "Colorado Rockies" style 3rd jersey is our division rivalry jersey so thats only worn for home games against central division teams.

I think I wore one of those Nordiques jerseys at one of the meetups.

I was an early hater on the latest Stadium Jersey. I have warmed to it. My big complaint is exactly what you said, the A comes up way too high. I would be devastated if they bounced the Rockies 3rd.

I REALLY hope they wear the Stadium jersey next season a few times! I have the jersey and it's FANTASTIC

I bought the new Stadium Series jersey in a #8 Makar. I really like it, but do understand it's not a design for everyone.

Morning Shannon!!

I just picked up the sakic in white with the Stanley cup final patch

Off Topic: Did the Tucson Roadrunners ever release their third jersey that you reported on last year(?) and have you seen it available anywhere?

My big issue with the Reebok basics, is that awful piping and apron looking design

I wish they would fix the number font back and put the foot back on the shoulder.

That new stadium one is awful, the third one is great

What I love most about Colorado’s jerseys is that they play in the Pepsi center and their logo and colors remind me of Pepsi

That's cool mate

Sou do Brasil e amo o colorado avalanche Como poderia conseguir uma camisa pois é meu grande sonho!!!! Go Avs

How come you don't have the original Quebec road jersey with the white logo on the front?

That cat sure is a heavy sleeper

Unpopular option: the Reebok area jerseys were the best home and away jerseys.

Where did he say he got that Sakic jersey from?

Do you think Colorado has a chance at the cup this year if they do the playoff bracket

Whatever jersey the Avs wear, there forever needs to be the Yeti foot on the shoulder or the Avs original logo on the shoulder. The Colorado flag 'C' is too bland for me. I wish they'd update the original jersey a bit and stick with the Yeti foot.

I was fortunate enough to score one of those never-used Nordiques “wolf logo” Joe Sakic jerseys off of eBay about 10-12 years ago. It’s just too bad that they weren’t able to stay in Québec.

I have a burgendy wordmark I dont really wear anymore now that I have a new one, if you would like to trade

You have some funny thumbnail photos

All you need is the eye in middle..?

Weird how the video just blanks out from 1:49 to 3:45 as if it never happened...

Go AVS!

I miss you Nordiques 😞😞😞

There are rumors that Colorado will make a "25th Anniversary Jersey" with the Quebec logo on it.

Thats a beautiful hat , just sayin :)

Those Bib jerseys by far the worst in Avs collection. Something as simple as not making the White A go all the way to the collar could make me drastically change my point of view on it but alas it does go to the collar and i'll never like it due to that. On a good note though Avs released a press release about a month ago saying that because 2021 season is 25th anniversary they're going to bring back the nordiques throwback jersey for a few games, since Hurricanes did it with Whalers jersey this year and were successful with it.

Some of your thumbnails just make make me laugh

To go from such a beautiful classic jersey(Quebec Noriques) to the original Avs jersey.Since then tho they've improved a bit.

Hurry up and get to North Stars/Barons/Seals/Stars

I buy jerseys off dhgate

Does Guinness know of your collection?

It's a pity that I can't post a photo here because the only authentic sweater I have is the all-burgundy third, which I think is the best the Avalanche ever wore. The only thing I would change on it would be to remove the wordmark and put that "C" logo (currently on the dark blue thirds) on the all-burgundy background. I really do NOT like the current thirds because there is too much of that dark blue, but I love the logo. If they wore that jersey VERY rarely, then I could live with it, but they use it for every home game against division foes, which is too much. I always worry when the team strays away from burgundy because I fear they are setting us up for some awful color change. We Colorado fans got hit with really ugly all-blue uniforms on the Broncos starting in the late '90s. Over time, the pressure on the Broncos to go back to orange won out. Tradition over ugly. I just hope the Avs won't do the same to us. Burgundy is so unique in the league and definitely awesome on the jerseys. For me, the best Avalanche sweaters are: 1. The all-burgundy third (but, as I said, it would be nice to see it with the "C" logo). 2. The current away kit. I like the white with burgundy and only a hint of blue. 3. The current home regular kit. My only complaint is that they seem to have made the blue on the shoulders and arms wider than before. Less blue, please.

Avalanche fan, totally dislike new third sweater. I like the black "practice" sweaters. Well done video. 👍

I think the NHL will be back in Quebec city in next 5 years makes to much sense for the nhl

quebec throwback vs montreal ftw

I know this is a hockey channel but can we get a cat video. Put mini hockey jerseys on them if you need to justify it

#GOAVSGO Most recent Addias version all the way!

I still cant believe that adidas actually made that stadium series jersey. People arent talking enough about how ugly it is.

What’s the estimated amount of money you’ve spent on jerseys?

The one logo is called the Pac-Man

Oh, I forgot to mention that, in my opinion, the 2020 Stadium Series jersey was the worst abortion of any sports jersey ever. It is truly puke-worthy.

If you have it, watch NHL network, all they do is broadcast hockey

They have a good team, but their bottom 9 forwards are just ok, not great. Tampa bay, Toronto and Vegas off the top have better overall offense. Colorado’s dmen are young and there are some good players but Vegas woth Pietrangelo and Theodore is pretty awesome. I even think Columbus and Pittsburgh have a better second and third lines than Colorado

An american team wearing a Québec Nordiques jersey would be ridiculous

Please don't ever show that jersey again. So many bad things are associated with that game and those jerseys that we really don't need to keep remembering.
