2008 NHL All Star Game Jerseys Now in Database

Finally got these done. All 49 different jerseys for each player that was elected to the All Star Game plus the replacements. Mike Ribeiro replaced Henrik Zetterberg, Scott Niedermayer is replacing Sergei Zubov, Corey Perry replaces Paul Stastny, Marc Savard replaces Dany Heatley, Malkin is in for Crosby, and Tim Thomas replaces Brodeur.

I am still at a loss of sorts regarding the new All Star look. This year hasn't really changed much from last year, which may or may not be a good thing. I always liked the old orange and black look, although I think the nicest ones we've seen in the last couple of decades would be the one's worn when Philadelphia hosted (1991-92, during the 75th anniversary season). If you've not seen them they were supposed to resemble the sweaters worn during the very first All Star game, image here from Spirit of the Game.

Nonetheless, should be an interesting weekend what with this crazy trick shot competition and all....

You can find all the jerseys for this year's game in the database on this page.

Nice but I've got one minor gripe about your jerseys, you forgot to add the players team logo on the right shoulder.

They've done it for years now and I guess they'll still do it this year.

I'm not asking you to re-do them, I'm just saying...so don't be mad :P

It was a conscious decision, adding them would have meant not having them done before the game this weekend.

I might add them add a later date but it's a hefty amount of additional work.

OK, they are all now updated to include the team patches, this goes for the 2007 All Star game jerseys as well.
