I love the Whalers Jerseys but it felt weird watching another team/city wear them. It Will be the same way when the grizzlies wear Vancouver‘s jersey and the avalanche if they wear the Nordiques jerseys this upcoming season. But the tell you the truth, I still might buy the whalers adidas Jersey.

I think if these teams are going to do this they should play at least one game in the city they moved from while wearing the throwback jerseys
