  1. Recently retired Rick Nash finished last season as a member of the Boston Bruins
  2. Here's a couple other wrong uniforms for Steve Christie, with the Chargers and Giants.: And here's one a lot of people probably don't know about. After his NFL career ended, Christie played one game for the CFL's Toronto Argonauts.
  3. I think the biggest difference is that the 1980 set had TV numbers and the set that preceded them didn't. Also black facemasks. The older set had grey facemasks. http://nflfootballjournal.blogspot.com/2016/10/cincinnati-bengals-last-team-to-add-tv.html
  4. I mean, they would be long shorts if he didn't have them pulled up to his nipples.
  5. I disagree with this. Division titles are banner worthy. If you have a ton of them it's probably better to combine them, but if you only have a few go ahead and hang individual banners.
  6. Jeez, they could have at least ran an iron over that thing before they hung it.
  7. Ray Bourque in a Colorado uniform is still wrong, Cup or not.
  8. They aren't. The part used in the logo is a part of a chicken wing called a drumette, not a leg. Chicken leg drumsticks are similar in shape but usually a bit bigger.
  9. Rick Martin was best known wearing # 7 for the Buffalo Sabres, but early on in his career he wore both 8 and 9 before settling on the number that the Sabres would eventually retire in his honor. The # 8 picture is especially interesting, since he's wearing gloves with the number 7 on them. Martin wore 7 at first, then switched to 8 and 9 before going back to 7 for the rest of his Sabres career. Not sure why he switched numbers so many times.
  10. Or baseball players, or basketball players, or anyone else for that matter...
  11. Wait. When did Tampa and Carolina play color vs color? Was this pre-season?
  12. I don't think Chicago ever really knew what they had in Hasek. Hell, even after the trade to Buffalo the Sabres left him sitting on the bench while they went out and traded a 50 goal scorer in Andreychuk to get Grant Fuhr, who they had starting over Hasek. It wasn't until Fuhr got hurt the following year that Hasek came into his own as a starter and became a superstar.
  13. I think I misunderstood your first post. I thought you were referring to the lack of a Topps logo on the front of the card, not the lack of the team logo on the card. The team logo being airbrushed out was pretty common on cards from the 70's and early 80's. The first year team logos appeared on the Topps cards was 1982. Before that the helmets were all logo-less when they appeared. Not sure why that was. Their baseball and hockey cards from the 70's and 80's all had logos on them. I guess the NFL's rights must have been too expensive for them?
  14. 1980 Topps. There was no logo on the front, and only a small Topps logo on the back.
  15. Here's a wrong uniform for the Sabres' new head coach Phil Housley. Housley only played 4 games with the Leafs, one regular season game and 3 playoff games.
  16. 86 with the Raiders, and 81 with the Panthers and Cowboys.
  17. I get where you're going with this, but 25 was Ismail's number at Notre Dame.
  18. Here's something for Kolzig: Right team, right uniform, wrong position. Olie playing defense during a Caps Alumni game.
  19. When Reebok originally designed the Edge system the jerseys were meant to be worn tucked in to the pants. That's why there weren't hem stripes on any of the early prototypes. The players, thankfully, rejected the idea since tucking the jerseys in would trap in too much heat.
  20. I'm a Sabres fan, so I think of him as a Senator mainly because of this:
  21. Tugnutt only played 18 games (7 regular season, 11 playoff) as a Penguin. He played the most games and had his best career numbers with Ottawa.
  22. For a Habs fan seeing Lafleur as a Nordique must have been even more wrong.
  23. Not really 'in action' since he's just kind of standing there, but here's Jim Zorn as a Buc.
  24. According to pro-football-reference.com Stegall only played one game against the Vikings in his career, during the 1992 regular season. The Bengals and Vikings didn't play in the preseason during his time there. http://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/S/StegMi00/gamelog/
