Not so Vintage Rangers

Have a good look at the picture above because this is what the New York Rangers will be wearing for the Winter Classic versus the Philadelphia Flyers.  The design is fairly simple, yet leaves the person wanting more.  The Rangers' crest on the front is modified from the usual design, which doesn't bother me too much, and the striping is okay, but could easily have been spruced up a little better.  The lace up collar trend is a little bothersome, but given that the Rangers have had that quirk on all of their jerseys, I tend to give this one a pass over the Flyers' Winter Classic duds that utilize the same thing.  The vintage white on the jersey doesn't quite look as bad, but how it looks on the ice will be the ultimate determining point for me.  In terms of jersey design for the Winter Classic this year, I have to give it to the Rangers over the Flyers, but not by a heck of a lot.
