The Mavericks wore a new throwback/alternate jersey on Saturday night, and it may have been one of the best ones MSU has had since it started using third jerseys a few years ago. Here is this year's third jersey, followed by a collection of several of the team's past alternates.
I'm missing one for sure (gold jersey with Minnesota State and the player's number on the front; Thanks to alert reader Travis Schneider of Danube, I have a picture of the gold one and one other very special jersey (see below). Are there others I'm forgetting?

Old-school style but not a true throwback, with patch to honor 40 years of MSU hockey.

Gray-and-purple alternate from a few years ago.
