The Vegas Golden Knights have jerseys. All they need is a roster full of players to don the newly unveiled sweater.

The Golden Knights will be the only team in recent memory with grey as the color of their primary home jersey. The gold, as it should, really stands out. Yet, undoubtedly the most questionable decision of the uniform design is pairing white gloves with the dark jersey.

The Golden Knights weren't the only team to disclose a new jersey design. Several clubs made significant changes to their get-ups, with the most notable uniform alterations made by the following teams:
- Carolina Hurricanes: The Canes added a significant amount of black trim and brought back the warning flag pattern along the bottom of the jersey.

- New Jersey Devils: The Devils have worn pretty much the exact same uniforms since 1992, but finally added a new wrinkle. The sleeve stripes are now bold and the bottom stripes are gone.

- Nashville Predators: Apparently the Predators can't get enough of the color yellow, removing some blue trim in favor of, well, more yellow.

- Colorado Avalanche: What's old is new again. The Avs go back to a jersey awfully similar to their classics from the late '90s and early 2000s.

- Minnesota Wild: For the first time since 2007, the Wild's primary home jerseys will be green - which is probably how it should be.

- Edmonton Oilers: The Oilers will commit to orange home jerseys full time. The biggest changes include what is seemingly a darker shade of blue, the sleeve number has been removed outside of the blue shoulders, and the stripes along the sleeves and bottom are noticeably thinner and more spread out.

Though subtle, if barely noticeable, the changes for the rest of the teams can be seen here, and in the image below.
