Those Pens jerseys look incredible

When I was back in Pittsburgh this weekend they had a bunch of the retro and Winter Classic gear at Dick's and the jerseys are even more bad ass in person but they only had mediums left when I was there. I picked up a sweet hooded sweatshirt with the jersey logo on the front and light blue retro cap, I also ordered a jersey online when I got home.

Perhaps you have noticed that the NY Rangers have gone to a straight hemline. It thankfully eliminates the "diaper effect". Hopefully all other teams will go that way. It looks horrible with horizontal hem stripes, and no hem stripes (Toronto, Phoenix, on and on) look even worse. Too bad the Sabres didn't get a straight hem. :mad:

I'm really looking forward to this game more than I thought I would.

HD, baby, HD!

Just checked my on-screen guide for the game tomorrow, and it said nothing about it being in HD. Surely the NHL wouldn't be THAT dumb, would they?

Well, this IS the NHL we're talking about...

They advertised the game as HD during the Rose Bowl Parade earlier today.

It's pretty awesome to watch. I wish the sound was better so we could truly hear the fans, but that said..I think the players are doing well with the elements. It's fun to watch, though. And I doubt you could get those 70k+ fans to agree that this game ought to be called or an exhibition.

A few notes:

? Penguins goaltender Ty Conklin is not wearing the brown pads. It also looks like he's not wearing the same mask that was pictured earlier.

? Atleast two Sabres are wearing eye-black.

? Ryan Miller is pulling the Jose Theodore with the knit hat over his mask.

Dany Sabourin was the Pens goaltender with the brown pads. Ty Conklin is in net for us now.

The Penguins' unies look fantastic, though I can't understand why they used the current numbers instead of using something more retro.

I love both uniforms. I understand the black and gold is the "winner's look," plus the colors of the City of Pittsburgh, but man, I see those ice-blues and wonder why you'd want to have anything else. So frigging sharp.

(And, uh, ditto for the Sabres.)
