Sean Avery, fresh off his gig as an intern at Men's Vogue, edited an article about the 20 worst sports uniforms of all-time.
One of them highlights the Dallas Stars third jersey, as modeled by Marty Turco, which includes a bull's head (because of Texas) with varying stars inside and one flying star on the outside. The jersey is a pretty poor concept for two reasons. One, it doesn't make much sense, and in fact in no way resembles anything close to hockey. However, the real reason is because it's obscene.
Don't see the resemblance to a woman's reproductive system? Let's just say that the only NHLer who should have worn this jersey was Filip Kuba, because his name bears an uncanny resemblence to Fallopian Tube.

That is a truly horiffic jersey. I'd still put the Kings and Ducks jerseys from 95-96 above those in terms of crappiness. However, the worst jerseys of all-time were the Blues ones from that year that were never worn - they were so bad that Mike Keenan refused to let his team play in them. They're on www.nhluniforms.com if you've never seen them.
