Rare team matchups

Last year of those Canucks jerseys, only year Sabres wore those colors pre-RBK Edge (This was also a one year jersey considering BUF's classic look would look completely different when it was reintroduced years later). Buffalo had never worn the old-school blue/yellow colors in the years Vancouver had that specific jersey.

This one doesn't seem rare, but in the 3 seasons these jerseys coincided, the Penguins only wore that black uni twice against the Blues here and once in 1997-98 (I did some research for this one- when the Pens played at Kiel Center in 1995-96 and 1996-97, they wore the old diagonal PITTSBURGH jerseys)

The mid-1990's summed up in one picture.

Last year of those Kings jerseys, first of a few years in which Anaheim had those alternates

Fun fact, Aki berg (left) was drafted seven slots higher than Selanne (in different years)

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

You can almost hear the synthesizer in the background

A lot of these NFL pics are getting major bonus points for having actual AstroTurf in them too. That brings back memories, when was the last official NFL game played on it?

I'm almost positive it was Colts Broncos in 2004 at RCA

Right - almost. The last NFL game played on the old-style Astroturf was Colts-Broncos in RCA, but on January 9, 2005.

The picture above is from the 2004 playoffs, notice the colts blue face mask. Last Regular season game it was played on was Jets vs Rams January 5th, 2005...... Who was the last team with in an outdoor stadium to use it?
