Stampman

Get ready for Sabres fans to post a certain player with the last name McDavid after the NHL draft...

(And I think the Oilers should be banned from the top 5 picks for 10 years--they've had 3 of the last 5 and still can't make the playoffs.)

- That's Brandon Browner, current Patriot and former Seahawk; before the two Super Bowl rings this year and last, he won a Grey Cup ring with the 2008 Calgary Stampeders; you might say that puts him in a pretty rarefied air; winning football championships on both sides of the border- only six other people can say they've done that.

This is only the wrong uniform in the sense that it's an older ugly 3rd jersey. I'm glad they dumped theses--but they still need an upgrade.

Oh well, the STamps won a Grey Cup without him this year--so I guess we didn't need him, but many fans still miss him, but are also happy for him.

20 years ago Czechoslovakia had just changed into the Czech Republic and Slovakia

So that may be a factor in his being able to play for different countries--just as the Soviet guys were able to.

Molitor as a Blue Jay makes sense to me.

This would be wrong no matter which uniform--well sports uni any way.

So does this mean you think of him more as a Wheat King?

Or just found a uni that isn't an NHL one?

Minnesota is the right jersey for him.

This looks just as weird.

But it's junior--how can it be the wrong jersey in junior?

So does this mean you think of him more as a Wheat King?

Or just found a uni that isn't an NHL one?

I add some more pictures as a Flames fan-

According to Hockey Reference, in Iginla's rookie year Paul Krause was also No. 12 for the Flames'. I would assume that's what's caused this.

They should have retired #12 in honour of Hakan Loob.

Now they'll just have to do a double retiring, like the Canadiens did, of #12 when Iggy retires.

This one sort of counts--because Joel Otto never played for the Canucks, but then again--that's not Joel Otto...

In honour of his 500th goal, Jarome Iginla as a Dallas Star.

He never played a game with them though--that one was from the draft as you can see in the background...

Gordie Howe, Detroit Vipers (IHL)

Nothing wrong with that one--it was for a good cause and a cool idea...

Here's one of Flutie with the New Jersey Generals:

Since that was before he was a Stampeder--I'm letting it slide...

More Chris Osgood:

Ba dum dum

Funny...

All of these are just wrong-especially the Argos one.

The ones pre-Stamps--I'll let slide...

Cooperalls!

Making it a rare double wrong uniform.

Wrong for two reasons--the thought had occurred to me as well.

Here's a couple of Red Wings--although one of them is in an airbrushed uni-

Here are some more-

Garry Unger should be a Blue-

Darryl Sittler should be a Leaf-

Dave Keon again, different team than last time-

Derek Sanderson will always be a Bruin in my mind--and I'm not a Bruin fan.

(I detect some airbrushing as well...)

If you look closely at the Canucks card, it looks like the in the backround is wearing a Blues jersey.

Thus my comment about airbrushing.

Dave Keon as a Minnesota Fighting Saint--should be a Maple Leaf.

Derek Sanderson will always be a Bruin in my mind--and I'm not a Bruin fan.

(I detect some airbrushing as well...)

This too:

That's how I see him...

I have that picture saved and would have posted it, but now I don't have to...

Oh, so the team he played 23 games before making a name for himself is a "correct" uniform? Please explain how his 23 games before he was a known goalie is not a wrong uniform?

Never said it was, but I figure a picture of him in a Leafs or an Avs uni would fit more--because he made a name for himself on the Ducks, then went to the Leafs and now the Avs.

Just that that fits the topic better.

Never said the picture posted was wrong in any way--just thought the Leafs made more sense.

But then again this thread is more in the eye of the beholder than anything else.

Except that Giguere was on the Flames first, before he made a name for himself in the NHL

Most of these are from after that.

But still, if you consider it the wrong uni, I guess it is

I didn't check all 47 pages, so this may already be posted, but here's one I've never seen before today. In researching it, it looks like Trottier had dual citizenship and went from playing with Canada in the '81 Canada cup, to playing for the U.S. in the '84 Canada cup. I know Brett Hull often gets accused of being traitorous, but it seems like Trottier's "offense" is even worse.

I know people that still don't like Trottier because of that.

Some of them cheered against Pittsburgh when Trottier was a Penguin.

Yeah, Hull was born in Canada, and spent a lot of time there, but he also lived in Chicago with his Dad, where all his other siblings were born. So, while he had dual citizenship, more than that, in '86 Team USA was the one who showed interest in him playing for them, not Canada. Hull decided to stick with that loyalty throughout his career.

I admire both of their decisions.

I have always identified Hull in a USA jersey. Now, Brett Hull in a Flames jersey is odd by comparison

I remember him in a Flames jersey--I was at the game where he got his first NHL hat trick--in a Flames jersey.
