Question

I'm pretty sure the redwings in the early 90's had an alternate jersey with the lettering "DETROIT" on the front of their jerseys and seeing the question where it was said that they never had any lettering on their jerseys is making me second guess this knowledge. Just trying to reaffirm it.

there are several with writing on them...

Hmm, I guess your right.

Answer 3

Answer 4

As part of the NHL's 75th anniversary in 1991-92, all 6 original six teams wore a throwback jersey (the original 3rd jerseys).
