From Luke Decock of the News & Observer:

When the Hurricanes take on the Red Wings in the second home game of the season, there’s a good chance only one team will be in red.

The Canes hope to unveil their new, NHL-approved alternate jerseys — expected to be black with the team’s secondary, waving-flag logo on the chest — at the Caniac Carnival in September and could wear them on the ice as early as Oct. 13 against Detroit.

Third jerseys, a.k.a another way for the NHL to improve its revenue stream. I’ve actually had enough of these new jerseys in the NHL. Teams have gone through 3-4 jerseys over the past few years. Just keep it simple, like the Original Six, and stop looking for cheap ways to make money.
