It currently has roughly 700 game worn college hockey jerseys on the site which I've collected since 1995. For teams other than Michigan Tech, go to "OTHER UNIVERSITIES" and then select your desired conference. The teams are arranged alphabetically within each conference. There is also an "ARCHIVE" section of the site with another 1,000 or so jerseys, but I don't own any of those as they were sold or traded away over the years. I just keep them on the site for others to view and enjoy. All 60 current D-I teams and also many defunct programs are represented.

      I am of course biased as a Huskies fan, but my favorite in the collection is one of Tony Esposito's Michigan Tech sweaters, shown below. One of my past favorites (no longer in my collection) would be the home jersey of BGSU's Ken Morrow best known for his part in the 1980 Olympics Miracle on Ice. I recently made a trip to BGSU and one of the photos of Ken on display was matched to the jersey by one of the large puck/stick marks across the front.

      Enjoy!


      What a great website! And I agree the Esposito and Morrow jerseys are great. There is something about script lettering that works well with hockey jerseys

        I am also not a fan when black gets used as a primary uniform color when it is not one of the main school colors. I think MSU's road and third uniforms are pretty good, especially since they have gone with lettering on the front instead of the logo. Sometimes a schools broader athletic department branding (logos, specialized fonts) don't really translate well to hockey uniforms.

          Last year I did a full uniform history for UAH, going all the way back to the first club team in 1979-80.

          For the most part, I like the Chargers' current set, except I wish there was less emphasis on black and more on blue. Our road blues are the best, I think.
          What a great service you have performed to catalog this history! The road blues are great: Another example where simple is better for a hockey uniform.

            I went up to Hanover to watch RPI play Dartmouth last year and checking out some of the photos around the area, it's clear Darmouth has a solid jersey history, with only a few missteps. This article was a good recap: https://www.vnews.com/dartmouth-uniform-history-7990383

              Gold jerseys always seem to work. I think the diagonal lettering on the regular NMU jerseys would look good on the gold third jerseys.

                I hear you. Something about the neutral color jerseys hasn't quite clicked. Ohio State's gray/silver jerseys aren't their best either. The tan/sand color of the third shirt that Brown has used falls into the same category. I know that the skating friar has long been part of the PC hockey uniforms, but I am not sure it works as the sole feature on the front of those gray jerseys. Still probably better than the Cooperall and Pro-Tec Helmet era! http://www.rihhof.com/remembering-wh...re-cooperalls/

                  Found this ranking from 2017: http://hockeybydesign.com/2017/04/co...ankings-60-51/

                  I think I would agree that poor Bentley is last, but plenty to discuss throughout the rest.

                    I didn't care for the #56 ranking for UAH primarily because the blue jersey wasn't considered. Not saying UAH should be ranked much higher, but if you're not going to include our best jersey (or just the full set) then what are we doing?

                      I think you haven't been listening then. If there was a Bottom Feeder jersey tournament, those would be a #1 seed. Like Shaq told Craig Sager "that's horri-awful".

                      It's not as bad as the historically cringeworthy Wisconsin third with the giant diagonal Bucky Badger, but that was a long time ago.

                          Pajama Bucky!

                          That's a jersey I haven't heard about in a long time.

                            I always thought UW should do a red pinstripe jersey with "W" on the front like Bucky wears.

                            This one is already 21 years old. Well it was unique...

                              I agree it is probably smarter to rank the individual shirts rather than a collective ranking for each school. Better to highlight the individual shirts that work.

                                Is that a shadow print of the Bucky image on the back or is it just the design on the front being visible through the jersey material? Either way, this fits in with other bonkers jersey designs in the mid to late '90s.
