Memo to self: I gotta get my ass to Toronto this summmer...I gotta get my ass to Toronto this summmer...I gotta get my ass to Toronto this summmer...I gotta get my ass to Toronto this summmer...I gotta get my ass to Toronto this summmer...I gotta get my ass to Toronto this summmer...

 

Anytime, HB. But fall is better after all the frickin' Americans tourists leave.

 

(with the Cup, that is ... )

;D ;D ;D

 

Oh, I'm leaving Toronto with The Cup. Just haven't figured out how I'm gonna get it out of the HHOF yet, but it will be mine. Oh yes, it will.

 

Not sure if this was mentioned yet: The NHL will not allow its team the option to wear third jerseys next season.

Thank God.

 

I dunno how much I like that. Some of the third sweaters are sweet.

 

The Rangers' third jersey was better than the original blueshirt.

 

Both the Statue Of Liberty and Original Blueshirt sweaters are better than the Gorton's Fisherman logo your boys sported for awhile.

 

Yes, but the hideous Boston "Pooh Bear" jersey, and Dallas Stars "Bull" jersey, and Red Wings "Black" jersey, and Nashville's "Mustard Spill" jersey all out-weigh the cool ones.

 

Here's some of the worst ever: http://espn.go.com/page2/s/newlook/nhlthirdunis/worst.html

PS - Todd McFarlane, please stick to drawing comic books, not NHL logos.

I know there was a team that sported the Downeaster Alexa look a few years ago, but it was not the Islanders. I know this is true, because that particular jersey came out when the Islanders were on hiatus.

PS -- The LA Kings had the worst third jersey. Ever.

 

This has never been worn in game competition, so it really can't be considered a third jersey, merely a practice jersey.
