Don't they still show this commercial?

I don't know.  It's been so long since I've watched network tv, that I honestly couldn't tell you.

Brandon Dubinsky playing for his hometown Alaska Aces during the 2012-13 lockout.

I'm going to be honest, that's a nice looking match up. I really dig both of those uniforms.

Jeff George dressed but never took a snap for Bears and Seahawks

 

Was the Seahawks the go to destination for players about to retire? Seems like I see alot of players as a Seahawk on their way out the door. Jeff George, Jerry Rice, Terrell Owens, Warren Moon etc.

When I was a child, all I knew about hockey was informed by NHL 94 on Sega Genesis. We would take turns playing as the Penguins because we knew Lemiux was awesome (and he was in the game -- a 100 rating!), but there was this guy Jagr (that we obviously pronounced "Jagger") would always rack us assists and goals too.

 

It's insane that a dominant athlete from my childhood -- and I'm in my mid-30s -- is still playing at a high level today.

NHL 94/95/96 was mandatory playing for any hockey fan then. I remember NHL 95 had a master roster list included with the cartridge. I may or may not still have it but it was pretty cool to look at. 

This is how Pudge should go in to the MLB HOF:

No other uniform is remotely acceptable for him, including other incarnations of the Rangers uniforms.

Charlie Joiner as a Houston Oiler

 

 

Wearing a Houston Oiler uniform is never a wrong uniform no matter how unusual it is to see them in one. 

The flag of Abkhazia is pretty neat.

I'll see your Wendell Clark and raise you Kirk Muller.

 

I fail to see how this is a wrong uniform for him. Joking aside, that uniform looks good on him.

I hope nobody's posted these yet...

 

Roberto Luongo on the Islanders

 

Zdeno Chara in the same place: (And in a fishsticks jersey no less)

I don't know if they are necessarily wrong uniforms as much as a painful reminder of the crop of guys the Isles had that got traded away for a hill of beans. This maybe the nostalgist in me but I still kinda associate Luongo, Chara, Bertuzzi, McCabe Berard, Palffy, Jonsson and Salo with the Islanders. 

My biggest issue is the part where I can't go to the last read post on threads. It seems like the boards has done away with that, unless it's something that is being integrated during the process. On my phone I could click the thread title and go to my last read post with out either starting at the first page or go to the last page of the thread. On my desktop, I could click the drop box and it would tell the last read post. 

I hate when guys like Iginla and Jagr become rent-a-players at the end of their careers. Sort of tarnishes they're main career team "feel" when they wear 17 other sweaters in the league.

I don't mind all of them. Jagr remains more productive than most because of his size, patience, stickhandling, & able to create space without speed.

Guys like Iginla & Recchi, those are players I get tired of... chasing rings instead of playing for fun.

Does anyone really play just for fun or the love of the game? Most if not all play for rings and make the most money they can make for themselves.

if QC does get a team are they going to be treated as a new franchise or are they going to try to take the history/logo/uniforms from the Quebec portion of the Avalanche?

This works better as a Detroit Lions cross over concept. The addition of black would help this concept.

.90 on the dollar IS good for the loonie versus the USD. Back when Winnipeg and Quebec left, it was more like .60 on the dollar. Multiply the conversion rate by the "Canadians care about hockey more" rate, and a team will be incredibly successful there.

which makes too much sense and why Bettman will fight to keep the Coyotes in Clowndale or Las Vegas or Palermo, North Dakota.

Oh Lord. Move the Coyotes to Vegas and they're staying there for 15-20 years.

15? I'll take the over. What are the odds on Vegas gold? Will there be a cow skull or playing cards in their branding? Let's put some money on this. Make it interesting.

Definitely over. I'll say black/red/Vegas gold. I think the logo will at least contain the ace of spades.

Read that in Lemmy's voice.I'm going over.

I read it in Lemmy Koopa voice.

I too will take the over.

I always associated him with the Blues. I missed out on his Flames days but I know him as a member of the Blues.

I'm still looking forward to seeing Arizona's new uniforms. Hopefully we'll see a new unveiling not long after that.

Hey guys, their new jerseys were unveiled today!!!

That looks like a christmas sweater my aunt bought me when I was in school. It didn't have a seattle 'S' but it had a similar pattern.

Did Gilmour win a cup with the Devils?

I honestly don't remember if this was posted and I don't care to go through 208 pages to find out:

One I'm having trouble finding: Calgary Flames mid-90s uniforms vs. the old Winnipeg Jets in 1995-1996

Not great, but there's this:

Which is from:

While looking for that I did find this from the lone meeting between the creamsicles and Panthers.

I played this matchup so many times on Madden ('95, I believe... the one where the Panthers and Jags were ridiculously powerful hidden teams) that this doesn't look weird to me.

Same, but on Tecmo Super Bowl III, which was also for the '95 season.

as much as I enjoyed the Madden series for the Sega Genesis, I enjoyed the heck out of the Tecmo Super Bowl series. OH and the Panthers/Bucs picture, good god that thing is a thing of beauty. Granted I enjoy the Bucs previous look, but there is something beautiful about that panthers/bucs match with the Bucs wearing the creamsicles.
