I would say the Blackhawks 2019 Winter Classic is the best Winter Classic as its a true throwback to the 2nd uniform of the Blackhawks as their 1st uniform was a white verison of the sweater then in 1927 they switched to black full time and wore it when their won the 1934 Stanley Cup. The Blackhawks vs Bruins that game made for a perfect jersey matchup. I was able to be at Notre Dame for that game and it a great jersey matchup.
Maybe my bias showing but very surprised not to see the Red Wings 2014 winter classic here! The colour scheme was excellent and the jersey had some extra details you just don't get on most Wings sweaters like the additional shoulder striping and the sleeve patches for the Captains and alternate captains patches!
Well i live one town over from Calcutta & can tell you that the Ponderosa did close. The owners decided not to open after the covid stuff. A LOT! Of people were disappointed to say the least. A chipotle & Starbucks have since taken up residency. I believe the one in Beaver Falls has been or is set to be demolished too. That was a great restaurant. The one here in Calcutta (where I’m currently at) was always nice and clean & food was always good. Employees were always friendly. I never heard anyone complain about it.
Sigh......another jersey I wish I'd never sold (Capitals that also had Holtby on). Think my top 3 would be quite different to those. There are a lot of great jerseys in the winter classic game and some real stinkers too!
Come for the jerseys, stay for the ponderosa history.

Oh there's more videos coming that look at some different ways to measure this. Stay tuned!
It's hard to improve on perfection. When you nail the color scheme and logo from the start why mess with it. Flyers are iconic
Wouldn’t the Flyers 2010 be the most reused since it became their away jersey
You bring up a really good point. Why wasn't that included in the video I watched about the Blues jersey?
My top 3 would be the Habs 2016, Red Wings 2014, and Rangers 2012

Ugh! Justice for Ponderosa!
At least you have a nice Tim Hortons out there...not a bad antique mall nearby, too
Great top 3 picks.
💯 agree with the #TexasHockey pick, and agree it should be a 3rd.

This was not an easy list, as there are many good ones, but there's going to be some upcoming videos that take different approaches, so stay tuned!
Unfortunately I have to disagree with those 3 being the best winter classic jerseys
And your picks would be...
@uglythirds 08 penguins powder blue 18 buffalo sabres white with leather buffalo logo 10 Boston bruins yellow jersey
Not bad picks
