All 32 NHL markets will get a new look this season with the launch of the much anticipated Hometown Remix collection. Most fans are taking in their teams' new designs and giving plenty of feedback online, including in a fan survey by popular X user JFreshHockey, which saw over 5,000 fan submissions.

Rated out of 10, the Nashville Predators jersey received an average rating of 5.82, the 11th-highest rating. This Jersey has been very well received among Preds fans after bringing back the navy blue look that fans had been begging to return.

"Wow, this thing is nice," said winger Filip Forsberg after his first look. "Love the color." Safe to say the players missed being in blue, too.

The kit will include navy pants and a navy helmet to complement the stunning gold stripes and accents on the shirts. They will also feature Dolly Parton patches as a tribute to the Country Music legend the world lost recently.

"It is an incredible honor for us to celebrate Dolly Parton this Saturday with a specialty patch on our Hometown Remix Jerseys," Nashville Predators CEO Sean Henry said. "When working on the design for our jerseys, Dolly was one of our inspirations, given her legacy and how she was a trailblazer for so many in the country industry. We are thrilled to honor her and grateful to give back to both Monroe Carell and her Imagination Library, an organization that has and continues to support so many not only in Tennessee but around the world."

Proceeds from these Hometown jerseys will benefit a number of wonderful charities, including the Preds' Foundation, Monroe Carell Jr Childrens' Hospital at Vanderbilt, and Dolly Parton's Imagination Library. Even more reason for fans to purchase, aside from the exciting new look.

Fans will get their first look at these new uniforms in action on November 7th against the St. Louis Blues, the first of ten appearances that wraps up with a game against the Boston Bruins on March 20th.
