As a Pittsburgh Penguins fan, I had a very similar reaction to what you said about the Canadiens logo being in Bruins colors when I saw the Penguins jersey in Flyers colors.
I vote for Florida and Tampa to permanently swap. Those were my two favorites. Tampa moves away from looking like Toronto while also giving me a little The Flash vibes with the lightning in gold and red in the jersey as well. And, I really liked the Panthers logo colorized with the black, silver ,and blue. Only issue I could see is that it would be close to the Carolina Panthers of the NFL......but who cares lol
The B's and Pens went thru it too, and I think that's a problem. Any shade of blue with white is a very common color scheme. Its how you stand out and represent your organization. Humility and sacrifice. Greatness in blood. Is how my mma instructors put it.
To heck with reverse retro, THIS is the next frontier for new jerseys in the NHL! JK. I know you would never wear Bruins colors on a Habs crest, but some of those jerseys really popped! Well done!
That was my inspiration behind it. I never cared about the Jets before that series, and now I hate them more than everybody not named Chicago, Pittsburgh, or Dallas
The Calgary flames blue orange and white looks realistic. All those are colors of fire and I think it works well! I also thought Detroit would be the Avalanche colors.
the montreal jersey would look good if you replace the yellow around the logo into red and the striping into blue and keep the small stripe white but keep the black inside the logo and the main jersey color so basically a black habs jersey
NGL, Vegas colors on the sharks really isnt that foreign. Just add a touch of red and it's a 49ers tribute jersey. Also on the bruins in Canadians colors. Flip flop the red and blue and darken said blue. Perfect revolutionary war alternate.
Yeah I found a reddit post that used polls to see which team each fan base hates the most and by far Columbus fans hate Pittsburgh the most. The feeling didn't necessarily need to be mutual
The Detroit one was well done! And seeing my nucks in flames colours is weird because I hate the flames, but the ridiculous Flying V jersey that was orange came to mind so it didn’t look too weird but still. And a lot of these I hated but not in a way that it was bad just that it was weird very well done tho I love this idea! Good job Matt! 😊
Honestly I wanted to see Toronto with the Habs colors. I know that probably make you throw up lmao but it sounds interesting and maybe the leaf would be red like an actual maple leaf.
I liked the NFL one you did. I thought it was pretty unique, and this didn't disappoint. Edit: I tell you I love the yellow jackets blue jackets one. 😍 I'll take it. Looks really clean.
@@frankym69 absolutely. I've got a bunch more submitted just waiting for the reactions/rankings. He gets a ton of submissions so it'll probably be a while. I appreciate the sub tho!
That was so strange. I can't even believe that it has been that long since Neil has made a concept video with the basis of the video being rivals swap colors.
Wow, my favorite Nordique hat.. Where did you find it. I have to say TecMatt did an excellent job. I agree with you Neil on the Avs that jersey reminded me of Christmas.
My favorites were the ducks, bluejackets, (controversial) avalanche, and panthers. Weirdest ones probably oilers using my flames colors, plus golden knights in sharks
As someone living in Winnipeg (not a Jets fan) I truly don't understand the Jets jersey in Predators colours. I don't think anyone in Winnipeg considers them a rival or even cares when it's the Predators in town. Maybe the Predators fans would consider the Jets a rival because of the playoffs a few years ago. But not the Jets fans haha
95% of these were awesome! Only real issue for me would be as a Wild fan lol. Just no, nope, absolutely not! Haha. But seriously a lot of good to great ones here TechMatt! I think the Jets might be my favorite one here. But blue jackets, Blues, Kings, Caps among others were also pretty cool imo and looked really good.
@@deannadoyle4578 I can see that especially with recent years coming to mind. But yeah definitely agreed was really odd to see Av’s colors on the Wild jersey and vise versa. For me AV’s would be right up there.
Sabres fan here. We hate Boston and Toronto way more than Ottawa. Yeah I get the Ottawa brawl in '07 and everything but there's definitely more Bruins and Leafs fans than Sens when the boys are playing in KeyBank.
I understand the swap. It’s a good idea but some of the mash-ups are wrong… for me at least Some of them should be; Sabres (leafs) Leafs (Sabres) Capitals (Hurricanes) Canucks (Kraken) Red Wings (blue jackets)
red wings have one of the greatest logos in all of sports, but I too have wondered what it would look like if they had alternate jersey where the tire portion was coloured black
Hi Neil, I ordered a customized jersey from cool-hockey. I ordered hand stitched but they made a mistake and sent me pre-stitched. I know you deal with them alot and recommend them on your videos. It's the first time I buy from them. I have been trying to reach them by email and voice mail for several days now but have not received any response. Did this ever happen to you? Do I have anything to worry about? Thanks.
Hi, I would recommend emailing them every day. I know they are backed up, but they should still respond to you. I do not work for Cool Hockey so I'm unable to directly help you, I'm sorry :(
@Post2PostProductions hi Neil. Thanks for your response. I finally heard from them! Keep up the good work with your videos. I really enjoy them. Cheers!
After seeing the Oilers in the playoffs with the home uniforms they had last year they look better in anything including Ronald MacDonald lol. AQctually I liked the Blues one, just the name would have to be changed because of no Blues colors.
What the hey? I noticed that he didn't swap colors with seattle, nj and buffalo (meaning no other teams used their colors) for color swapping, it should be swapped by 2 teams, not by multiple teams (blackhawks, knights, rangers, penguins, sharks and bruins colors were used more than once). If the colors were inverted with the wild, panthers and sabers logos, they would've looked better.
I didn't do pairings. I just went team by team and what I imagined they consider their biggest rival. Looking back I probably should've used Devils colors for NYR but I don't think anybody considers Seattle or Buffalo their biggest rival (maybe Ottawa but they have Toronto)
No I was a little torn on their biggest rival but to me the playoffs are a big factor, and you think about all the incredible playoff series the sharks and kings have had and that's what tipped it for me
Loved the redwings jersey, but that wing....eww. the black and red looked nice especially since they do alot of black and red merchandise. But I can't get over that wing
seeing teams in rivals colors is so confusing yet so creative lol
Someone already did this type of jersey
As a Pittsburgh Penguins fan, I had a very similar reaction to what you said about the Canadiens logo being in Bruins colors when I saw the Penguins jersey in Flyers colors.
13:52 Coming from a Preds fan, yes, we’re definitely rivals with the Jets.
Dallas in yellow looks shockingly good
Very clever feather colouring with Detroit
How dare you! Stars are only ever green (except when they did the gold star jersey)
Jets fan here. The Jets and Preds absolutely have a rivalry, the most underrated rivalry in the NHL tbh.
Preds fan here, can confirm
I'd love to see the NHL actually do something like this.
Agreed
The Colorado jersey looks so weird but I would definitely buy it! These were fun concepts
I'd like to see old school rivalry jerseys, maybe the Avs would look better mixed with the Red Wings colors!
7:48 looked like any joy you had instantly left your face when you saw the bruins habs jersey lmao. just pure cursed.
His face/brain was like “Nex-….bruh…..” 🤦🏻♂️
Flames with Oilers colors looks really good.
I vote for Florida and Tampa to permanently swap. Those were my two favorites. Tampa moves away from looking like Toronto while also giving me a little The Flash vibes with the lightning in gold and red in the jersey as well. And, I really liked the Panthers logo colorized with the black, silver ,and blue. Only issue I could see is that it would be close to the Carolina Panthers of the NFL......but who cares lol

Cool.
Although would Vancouvers rival not be Seattle?
Lightning/Panthers is my favourite
I think Columbus is my favorite. Goes great with those colors for some reason. Great concepts overall
To heck with reverse retro, THIS is the next frontier for new jerseys in the NHL! JK. I know you would never wear Bruins colors on a Habs crest, but some of those jerseys really popped! Well done!
The Coyotes is probably my favorite, if you could incorporate some purple it might tie it all in nicely
as a Penguins fan it feels weird to see Orange instead of Yellow/Gold
I love all of these jerseys. I love how often they switch Jersey's for games this season.
this was a super cool concept! the eye in the Kraken S should've been the Canucks yellow colour
Arizona and Columbus were my fave those are sick!
YES! I was excited to see this video. Some are great, some are absolutely weird!
Definitely a Kings fan, but I've gotta say the AZ Coyotes jersey looks awesome. If I didn't have pride in the Kings, definitely buying the jersey.
The blue jackets would just be called the yellow jackets
That Washington one was super clean!
2018 playoff series preds vs jets watch it you’ll understand it then
That was my inspiration behind it. I never cared about the Jets before that series, and now I hate them more than everybody not named Chicago, Pittsburgh, or Dallas
The Calgary flames blue orange and white looks realistic. All those are colors of fire and I think it works well! I also thought Detroit would be the Avalanche colors.
the montreal jersey would look good if you replace the yellow around the logo into red and the striping into blue and keep the small stripe white but keep the black inside the logo and the main jersey color so basically a black habs jersey
NGL, Vegas colors on the sharks really isnt that foreign. Just add a touch of red and it's a 49ers tribute jersey. Also on the bruins in Canadians colors. Flip flop the red and blue and darken said blue. Perfect revolutionary war alternate.
Hey everybody, I'm considering doing a Pt 2 to this series, comment some rivalries I missed. Definitely doing DET-COL, NYR with NJ colors, and MTL-TOR
This is a Rival concept. Only Columbus fans think the Penguins are their rival. Signed, Penguins fans.
Yeah I found a reddit post that used polls to see which team each fan base hates the most and by far Columbus fans hate Pittsburgh the most. The feeling didn't necessarily need to be mutual
The Coyotes only rival is good business sense.
Lookin' at you, Bettman.
The Detroit one was well done! And seeing my nucks in flames colours is weird because I hate the flames, but the ridiculous Flying V jersey that was orange came to mind so it didn’t look too weird but still. And a lot of these I hated but not in a way that it was bad just that it was weird very well done tho I love this idea! Good job Matt! 😊
Thank you!
Honestly I wanted to see Toronto with the Habs colors. I know that probably make you throw up lmao but it sounds interesting and maybe the leaf would be red like an actual maple leaf.
Agreed
The reaction to the Oilers in CGY colors made me legit LOL.
In regards to the St. Louis Blues jersey, If you replace the black with blue it totally works
4:58 "This is wild"
...Was that intentional?
I liked the NFL one you did. I thought it was pretty unique, and this didn't disappoint. Edit: I tell you I love the yellow jackets blue jackets one. 😍 I'll take it. Looks really clean.
Thank you very much!
@@TecMatt I subbed bruh. Keep the concepts goin.
@@frankym69 absolutely. I've got a bunch more submitted just waiting for the reactions/rankings. He gets a ton of submissions so it'll probably be a while. I appreciate the sub tho!
The Detroit one legit was the best in my opinion
That was so strange. I can't even believe that it has been that long since Neil has made a concept video with the basis of the video being rivals swap colors.
Wow, my favorite Nordique hat.. Where did you find it. I have to say TecMatt did an excellent job. I agree with you Neil on the Avs that jersey reminded me of Christmas.

My favorites were the ducks, bluejackets, (controversial) avalanche, and panthers. Weirdest ones probably oilers using my flames colors, plus golden knights in sharks
Top jersey Panthers blue/silver, and Coyotes green/gold . Worst jersey Edmonton Happy Meals
This made me uncomfortable and in some cases angry... job well done!
As someone living in Winnipeg (not a Jets fan) I truly don't understand the Jets jersey in Predators colours. I don't think anyone in Winnipeg considers them a rival or even cares when it's the Predators in town. Maybe the Predators fans would consider the Jets a rival because of the playoffs a few years ago. But not the Jets fans haha
But Toronto and Ottawa is the battle of Ontario
GREAT:
Stars
Sharks
Coyotes
Ducks
Jets
Blues
GOOD:
Canadiens
Red Wings
Hawks
Senators
Jackets
Leafs
Sabres
Rangers
Islanders
Flames
Wild
Avalanche
Predators
Canucks
OKAY:
Penguins
Lightning
Hurricanes
Flyers
Devils
Oilers
Capitals
Needs work:
Panthers
Bruins
Knights
Kraken
Kings
The predators one is literally just their St.Patricks day jersey
I liked the Islanders/Rangers swap
Kings with sharks colors looks kinda nice.
This would have hit harder had the teams’ actual jersey templates been used
oh so we're going for the most cursed jersey
This was a fun idea 👍
Hi Neil I’ll admit I haven’t watched in a minute but I’m back!
I love concept vids
3:36 didnt even know cbj had rivals let alone a rivalry with the Pittsburgh penguins
Columbus and Anaheim look like if you made all star jerseys with the players logo on them.
Hey Neil you should rank your top 10 favorite all star jerseys since the new ones just came out 🤟🏼
95% of these were awesome! Only real issue for me would be as a Wild fan lol. Just no, nope, absolutely not! Haha. But seriously a lot of good to great ones here TechMatt! I think the Jets might be my favorite one here. But blue jackets, Blues, Kings, Caps among others were also pretty cool imo and looked really good.
As a wild fan I always feel like our rivalry is bigger with the blues. But still it was so weird seeing the avs colors on a wild jersey
@@deannadoyle4578 I can see that especially with recent years coming to mind. But yeah definitely agreed was really odd to see Av’s colors on the Wild jersey and vise versa. For me AV’s would be right up there.
Thank you very much!
Sabres fan here. We hate Boston and Toronto way more than Ottawa. Yeah I get the Ottawa brawl in '07 and everything but there's definitely more Bruins and Leafs fans than Sens when the boys are playing in KeyBank.
When are we getting some Reverse Retro unboxing videos?
Detroit (and Columbus) moved to the East ahead of 2013-14.
Guess nobody has a rivalry with Ottawa... I less I overlooked it. Was hoping Leafs in Ottawa colors. Still a good concept.
Buffalo's was Ottawa inspired!
Neither was NJ
@@AJEDDY97 thanks. Guess so many teams use red and black.
@@aidensones I think islanders or Rangers in Devils colors would have been good.
@@JustMikeTV no problem! They all looked good. Lol
I would've done the Jets jersey in Coyotes colors just to piss off the Jets fanbase 😂
Only thing I like is seeing the Cowboys-like Dallas Stars logo. Otherwise get that Predators colored Stars look outta here!
I understand the swap. It’s a good idea but some of the mash-ups are wrong… for me at least
Some of them should be;
Sabres (leafs)
Leafs (Sabres)
Capitals (Hurricanes)
Canucks (Kraken)
Red Wings (blue jackets)
11:35-11:40 that's the point of this video
red wings have one of the greatest logos in all of sports, but I too have wondered what it would look like if they had alternate jersey where the tire portion was coloured black
No!😂
1. Winnipeg 2. Anaheim 3. Arizona 4. Columbus 5. Ottawa 6. St. Louis
7. Minnesota 8. Chicago 9. Florida 10. Seattle
My favourite is Toronto maple leafs
Theres blue in the blue note logo
As a leafs fan I was disappointed Montréal Canadians colors wasn't used.
The bruins jersey with the habs colours is absolutely dookie but the habs with bruins colours is something to work with
No Neil the flames uniform does not work. I hate the oilers mesh
Hi Neil,
I ordered a customized jersey from cool-hockey. I ordered hand stitched but they made a mistake and sent me pre-stitched.
I know you deal with them alot and recommend them on your videos.
It's the first time I buy from them. I have been trying to reach them by email and voice mail for several days now but have not received any response. Did this ever happen to you?

@Post2PostProductions hi Neil. Thanks for your response. I finally heard from them!
Keep up the good work with your videos. I really enjoy them.
Cheers!
canucks do in fact have a chinese new year jersey. and its much better.
Black and yellow almost always look good together, but the Flyers logo NEVER looks good so that’s a tough one 😬😂
After seeing the Oilers in the playoffs with the home uniforms they had last year they look better in anything including Ronald MacDonald lol. AQctually I liked the Blues one, just the name would have to be changed because of no Blues colors.
the blues with the blackhawks swap should change their name to the Missouri Reds
What the hey? I noticed that he didn't swap colors with seattle, nj and buffalo (meaning no other teams used their colors) for color swapping, it should be swapped by 2 teams, not by multiple teams (blackhawks, knights, rangers, penguins, sharks and bruins colors were used more than once).

Flames jersey in oilers co.ors is as bad as boston in montreal colors thats a hard pass
It reminded me of the Kamloops Blazers, tbh. Like, just in terms of colors. Maybe not in terms of the design, but just the colors looked similar.
He didn’t go in alphabetical order because he went from Winnipeg to Washington and New Jersey to Nashville
It went by abbreviation. NJ to NSH and WPG to WSH
The CBJ one was cursed 😂
I didnt know cbj even had rivals since their so new to the league and where their located
@@calebkent6706 we have a burning hatred of Pittsburgh. That follows from all of our other sports where we also hate Pittsburgh
As a sharks fan those jerseys make me want to do throw up
(Great design horrible horrible feeling as a SJ fan)
I like you jersey and hat Neil
Most are just wrong but if Detroit wants to get bold and use black it could work.
Detroit looks like a pride jersey
Apparently this designer didn't do Kings in Ducks colors
No I was a little torn on their biggest rival but to me the playoffs are a big factor, and you think about all the incredible playoff series the sharks and kings have had and that's what tipped it for me
Bro I thought red wings would be avalanche
Avs should have been inspired by the wings....
Islanders jersey looked exactly the same… I did not see any red
I have to agree with you on the bruins Canadians swap can't do that to them lol bruins with another team maybe but not the Canadians
There were definitely some cringe moments.
The Detroit concept was an interesting creative take.
Your hat though…takes the cake!
Loved the redwings jersey, but that wing....eww. the black and red looked nice especially since they do alot of black and red merchandise. But I can't get over that wing
That Blues jersey is a sin.
putting toronto colours on a montreal jersey...that's insane, they would NEVER do that...what's that...reverse retro... oh never mind.
I think it should be leafs and bruins not bruins and canadiens
As a sharks fan that jersey makes me want to do throw up
I'm sorry, Neil, but I have to disagree with you on the Canes jersey. It's too off-putting for me.
As a Blackhawks fan….
This was truly disgusting…
Also No! Please don’t lol
