Crimson Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 My turn: and Both replicas, of course. But dang, do phone cameras stink....! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finny Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Great pickups! The Toews jersey looks real sharp in that style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 It looks a lot more interesting in real life. What I thought was white is actually a really light mocha, including the trim on the numbers, the "C," and the name itself. That was surprising to me, considering all the photos from the WC that I'd seen! But I'm really happy with this one. It's Airknit, and it's cut like a CCM 550! Now I know I have to get the Red Wings one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawksFan719 Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 those both look really nice Crimson. I'm still trying to talk myself into getting a WC jersey, finances are tight but I'm afraid i won't get another chance after this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafountain Posted January 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 That Toews looks really good. Sadly my Winter Classic jersey won't be here til late February sometime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curry1fan Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 Add me to the list of people who love the Toews. I love that Blackhawks jersey and albeit it's not my team, I'd LOVE a replica for collector's sake! (For some reason too, Pittsburgh's blue/Winter Classic doesn't do much for me.)

peca_fan Posted January 27, 2009 Report Share Posted January 27, 2009 The Blackhawks are making those their permanent third jerseys, so I figure they will be around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Thanks! I had to do a bit of color and contrast correction before uploading, but I can still see the blur in both....and now that I'm looking again, there's a bluish/purple tint to the Bruins photo..... I'd, of course, love to get the authentics of these, but it's a bit out of price-range at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 The Blackhawks are making those their permanent third jerseys, so I figure they will be around. Where did you get that info? Are they going to drop their current black 3rds? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finny Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Chicago's main newspaper reported it, is it called the Herald? in it's my head anyway and too lazy to go looking for the article. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess that's good news. I like their current 3rd, but that WC one is just AWESOME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

akteon Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 One of Boston's major papers is the Herald. Chicago has the Tribune and the Sun Times. I read it on Icethetics.info, it was in the Daily Herald (which claims to be Suburban Chicago's Information Source) http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=266351&src=149 "Back in black: If you liked those throwback jerseys the Hawks wore in the Winter Classic, you're in luck. Those will become the Hawks' new third jersey next season, replacing the current black sweater that is identical to the home red and road white. The only addition to the jersey the Hawks wore at Wrigley Field will be tomahawks on the shoulders." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lafountain Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Had this arrive yesterday from DerbyCoyote Gonna look into possibly getting it stripped and turned into a Kovalchuk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curry1fan Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 That is amazing! I'm trying to decide which jersey on my wish list (see signature) I should go for. It is a TOUGH decision for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guam64 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 I have had this jersey since the summer, but here it is anyways: But these did come in today: Planning to have the FF patch go onto a ND swift jersey. Does anyone know if those were sewn-on or just iron-ons? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Had this arrive yesterday from DerbyCoyoteGonna look into possibly getting it stripped and turned into a Kovalchuk. Are the white ones pretty rare? I think that I only recall seeing red ones for retail. It looks great, but shouldn't it have red name and numbers?

lafountain Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Are the white ones pretty rare? I think that I only recall seeing red ones for retail. It looks great, but shouldn't it have red name and numbers? I have not seen many of the white ones myself. That was one of the reasons I decided to go ahead and get it from him (well that and price). He even mentioned to me that the lettering in pictures he had seen was a different color, so hopefully the letters and numbers come off pretty well and don't show much damage so that they can be redone.

Carl Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 But these did come in today: Is Backstrom already an alternate captain? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafountain Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 Is Backstrom already an alternate captain? The Caps appear to rotate the 2nd Alternate quite a bit. Backstrom has worn the A though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guam64 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Share Posted January 28, 2009 The Caps appear to rotate the 2nd Alternate quite a bit. Backstrom has worn the A though. He got it for quite some time when the Caps were hit with injuries, especially when a lot of the vets (Fedorov, Poti, Clark) with letters were out.

akteon Posted January 29, 2009 Report Share Posted January 29, 2009 Nice Griffins jersey ... I've always been a fan of their jerseys/logo since we (UK) played GVSU after a Griffins game a few years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
