Ladies and gentlemen welcome to another edition of TXHT Jersey Share where today we take a look at the Detroit Red Wings home jersey that came in a Mystery Box from CoolHockey.com.
Near the end of the 2023-24 season, our friends at Cool Hockey released another round of Mystery Boxes. I obviously had to pick one up, and with the hopes of getting a team I didn’t have yet in my collection. Well, Cool Hockey did not disappoint.
The jersey I would receive would be an Alex DeBrincat Detroit Red Wings road jersey. This would mark the first Red Wings jersey for my collection. As for the player, I liked DeBrincat when he was with Chicago and Ottawa, but I didn’t really notice him too much with the Wings this past season.
As for the jersey itself, it is an iconic one. The Red Wings have had the same jersey design since 1956, and has only seen two changes since then. The first one happened in 1972 when the player names was added to the white jerseys, and then in 1977 when the player names were added to the red jerseys. In 1983, the Red Wings would curve the names on the jerseys, and center the logo on the front of the jersey
Overall, this is an amazing jersey, and one that I’m really happy to have in the collection.
