1995-2000 Washington Capitals Blue Color Help

Is there another team that used the same blue color as the Capitals "Screaming Eagle" Blue airknit jersey?  Does the St Louis Blues jersey match the Capitals color, or is it a complete unique blue color from any other team?  I need to match a nameplate, but I want to make sure I get a matching one.

Thanks for the help!

I don't know how well the fabric colors compare to the RGB values, but per ColorWerx, the Capitals' screaming eagle-era blue is the same shade of blue (35/97/146 RGB, 236192 Hex) that the Avalanche have been using since they moved. The info that ColorWerx gets for the colors' RGB values comes from the teams' style guides, IIRC.

Thanks for the help - sounds like that is going to be tough to find, so Keener or EPS might be the route I have to go.  Which leads me to this (and I know there is a separate thread for this, but...) who would you get on this jersey, Bondra or Oates, if I make a 97-98 Stanley cup patched jersey?

Bondra scored 52 goals that year.

Oates is considered a top 100 player of all time.

Oates. Not only a great hockey player but also great when he was in that band with Taylor Hall in the 80's. 

 

EDIT: it has come to my attention those may not be the same guys. ;)

Please, say it isn't so. I can't go for that, sounds like you're out of touch. One on one Bondra v Oates...yeah it's Oates. I'd have did it in a minute.
