The mid-1990's were not kind to the St. Louis Blues. Every year that they made the playoffs, they always had to go through the likes of the Detroit Red Wings and Colorado Avalanche, often losing such battles. When they decided to jazz things up on their jersey, they went with more red in their jerseys, and even went as far as to lift from the original Mighty Ducks of Anaheim jersey design. If you asked me what I thought was the worst Blues jersey design, that would be it.
However, there was one jersey design for the Blues that was infinitely worse. Thankfully, it never made its way onto the ice. The jersey you see before you was to be the team's third jersey for the 1994-95 season. However, due to the lockout that wiped out half the season, combined with coach Mike Keenan nixing the jersey, it never saw light of day on the ice. Two questions come from this jersey: Who thought this would look good on a professional hockey team, and would Brett Hull have asked for a trade before he even had to wear this jersey?
