NHL All Star Jerseys 1992

Today's jersey in the All-Star Week theme is from the 1992 All-Star Game that was held in Philadelphia.  The jerseys you see here are the ones worn from that game and according to the NHL Uniforms database, were a replica of the original jerseys worn from the first All-Star Game, being that this was the 75th anniversary of the formation of the NHL.  For more historical context, the red, white, and blue of the jerseys were the same colors for the ones worn during the first official All-Star Game in 1947, which obviously doesn't count the benefit games for Ace Bailey (1934), Howie Morenz (1937), and Babe Siebert (1939).  This design was a one year only deal, as the teams went back to the black and orange All-Star Jerseys the following year.
