  1. Your serie make us think the MLB designers often make lame products. I mean, I'd like to see more logos on jerseys "à la 70's expos" Too many woodmark, too many teams putting city name on road, why not put Padres or Astros on a road jersey. Heck, what's wrong putting Milwaukee on a home jersey? I'd be fun, much better than funky graphics in numbers, socks etc, they seem not to know where is a balance between evolution and tradition. More logos on the front of jerseys would add diversity and make everybody not look similar.
  2. Tryin to imagine Gary Bettman's face if a MLB team would go Vegas! Can you spell "nightmare"?
  3. I recall 1994 rumours on a jersey with "NYR" style numbers So I would say this is very possible.
  4. Nordiques / Rockies (Look at that pic! Gee!) Paul Stewart explains what happen The first time I encountered Schmautz on the ice, we were going in different directions. He looked away from me and was vulnerable. I sent my message by tucking in my arm, accelerating into him and delivering a forearm to the sternum that sent Schmautz careening 10 feet backwards. Was it a bit excessive and gratuitous on my part? Probably. I could have hurt him and what I did had nothing to do with a "hockey play." Paul Stewart the referee would have penalized Paul Stewart the player. No question about it. However, I will add that at least I took care not to make contact with Schmautz's head. If I had raised my arm to his head level or led with an elbow, he would have been seriously injured. My initial intent was to send a message, not to maim. Given what happened immediately thereafter, I kind of wish I had (in this instance only) put an opponent out of commission when I had the chance. Schmautz habitually injured other players with no conscience or remorse, and was a menace to the game. That is why I didn't have a problem with what Ftorek had done to him earlier in the season. After I blasted him with my forearm, Schmautz bounced right back to his feet. He made a beeline for me, leading with a raised stick blade that came at my head like a scalpel. The S.O.B. damn near took my eye out. He barely missed. He did, however, open a gash. I was enraged beyond all rhyme and reason. I totally lost control. Schmautz and I began to joust with our sticks; which is an extremely dangerous and inexcusable act. Naturally, both of us got matching game misconducts. Still furious, I went after Schmautz again after we were each escorted off the ice. The Rockies bench was on the rink's northeast corner and the visiting bench was on the southeast side. A long corridor was situated in between the two sides. As I exited the rink first, I sprinted as fast as I could (yes, I was running on my skates) down the carpeted corridor and found Schmautz before he could get to the Rockies' dressing room. Still branishing a stick, I swung it at Schmautz. He blocked it with his own stick. Away we went again until we got separated. The next day, a photo of my hallway confrontation with Schmautz ran in the Denver Post. This picture says it all about how crazy things got:
  5. Sorry I read unusual. My bad. Helmet used for one game in fact.
  6. LOL Looks like the goalie forgot to put all his equipement, shoulder pads etc...
  7. I admit this could be a video effect. Nothing like seing the real thing. By the way, this North Stars jersey, a great NHL jersey. One of my favs.
  8. I'd like to see them after a couple laudry. Anyway, I'll never be in favor of an industry getting rid of all and every international trade laws. Buy cheap and unlawful and kill your own economy.
