FAN VOTE: Quarter Final Matchups Set in Reverse Retro Cup

November 23, 2020 By John Hoven

With all votes now tabulated, the top 16 jerseys have been determined — as selected by MayorsManor readers — and seeded for our Reverse Retro Cup playoff bracket.

If you’re late to the party, here’s a quick recap: Shortly after the NHL launched their new Reverse Retro collection, we asked for hockey fans across North America to peruse all 31 sweaters created by Adidas and tell us which designs were the top four in each of the league’s divisions. We then took the results of those polls and used a little bit of math to arrange the vote totals, as if the team’s finished with points, like a regular hockey season.

Here are the results (with votes mathematically converted to points, per team):

Metro Division
93 Carolina Hurricanes
80 Washington Capitals
71 New Jersey Devils
67 New York Rangers

45 Columbus Blue Jackets
39 Pittsburgh Penguins
28 Philadelphia Flyers
12 New York Islanders

Atlantic Division
92 Montreal Canadiens
81 Florida Panthers
77 Buffalo Sabres
59 Tampa Bay Lightning

52 Ottawa Senators
45 Boston Bruins
27 Toronto Maple Leafs
15 Detroit Red Wings

Central Division
110 Colorado Avalanche
95 Minnesota Wild
80 Chicago Blackhawks
66 Winnipeg Jets

61 St Louis Blues
35 Nashville Predators
33 Dallas Stars

Pacific Division
103 Los Angeles Kings
75 Arizona Coyotes
59 Vancouver Canucks
49 Calgary Flames

48 Edmonton Oilers
36 Vegas Golden Knights
30 San Jose Sharks
30 Anaheim Ducks

A few interesting notes before getting to the brackets:

— Although universally panned online, Detroit still managed to get more votes than the NYI
— The top three vote getters were all from the Western Conference
— The three jerseys getting the least amount of votes all came from the Eastern Conference
— Using a Wild Card format, instead of four from each division, St Louis would have made the playoffs
— Using the points adjusted model (to simulate the actual NHL standings), Calgary edged Edmonton by one point for a playoff spot

Playoff Bracket:

Eastern Conference
1. Carolina Hurricanes vs 8. Tampa Bay Lighting
4. Washington Capitals vs 5. Buffalo Sabres
3. Florida Panthers vs 6. New Jersey Devils
2. Montreal Canadiens vs 7. New York Rangers

Western Conference
1. Colorado Avalanche vs 8. Calgary Flames
4. Chicago Blackhawks vs 5. Arizona Coyotes
3. Minnesota Wild vs 6. Winnipeg Jets
2. Los Angeles Kings vs 7. Vancouver Canucks
