jsh139 Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 (edited) I've stayed at about 10 different properties on the Vegas strip and the Wynn was one of my favorites. I don't gamble but the rooms were really nice, the clubs were good, the pool was awesome and the buffet (pricey) was one of the best I've been to. They were having a 25% off sale and if I recall correctly it was $200 per night which I thought was very reasonable considering the hotel was still pretty new at the time. The only thing I didn't like about it is that it's at the end of the strip and you have to walk a few blocks to get to the action (Caesars, Bellagio, etc). Edit: just checked. It was $162 per night plus taxes, etc. Edited June 8, 2017 by jsh139 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Matthews Posted June 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 I'm a blackjack guy myself so as long as I can find a table with a minimum that doesn't require you to be a millionaire then I really don't care much where I play. Though I don't like those 6 to 5 odds on Blackjack like I've been seeing more and more lately in Atlantic City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 When I'm in Vegas I don't waste my precious time with craps and blackjack. I'm a War and Pick a number kind of guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Matthews Posted June 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 The first thing I'll say about this right off the bat is, if these are actually the jerseys, it's nice to see the crests aren't sublimated like we had feared earlier.

Hollywood Cannon Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Only real difference (by the teasers) looks to be the Wild in terms of the main body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PensFan77 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Chris Creamer just said that none of the new jerseys will incorporate adidas 3 stripe design in the jersey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again a lot of retail stores THINK that what they sell (Authentics) are what is worn on the ice. Can't speak for that guys company or knowledge of the difference.

jsh139 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 I came here to post the same thing, lol. The material definitely looks different than Air-Knit. Looks kind of like the Edge 1.0 X-trafil or whatever they called it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Definitely liking what I'm seeing so far. Interestingly, a lot of teams now have the mesh/jersey material incorporated into their logos (like the World Cup jerseys did). Philly, Carolina, Columbus, Winnipeg, Buffalo, Minnesota, NJ, Arizona all have it so far. Fingers crossed on the authentics... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMLFAN Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Whomever handles that stores twitter account has a pretty good understanding of the differences in jerseys. I asked if they were made in Canada. Let's see what the answer is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The top layer of the crest looks like fabric instead of twill. Interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 The material on the front looks to be the same stuff used in the WCOH jerseys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PensFan77 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Looks like I'll be adding 2 more Penguins jerseys this year. Gonna make my 2 Reeboks 3-patch Cup Final jerseys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Is that $200/150 price level (authentic/replica) in Canadian, I wonder? Even if it's US, that's still a great price, at least for the authentic anyway. Some might think that the authentic price might be low because they will probably be manufactured overseas, but I seem to remember that the Canadian-made WCOH authentic jerseys were under US$200, after currency conversion.

LAK74 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Interesting. Good from a price standpoint, but it makes me more inclined to think that somehow these will be significantly inferior to the on-ice ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnakeOiler12 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 "Form the Future" -- does this signify the jersey is going to be more "form-fitting?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 I was told by someone in the know that the design was not going to be very different at all from the Edge. I have a feeling they're going to be similar to the WCOH design, which would be fine with me- I really liked how they fit, less baggy-looking than the Edge.

JoeM7392 Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 Can't wait to see these things. If it's any indication of how excited I am, I was offered to work an overtime shift next Tuesday night and I turned it down because I'd miss the jersey reveals. I don't usually turn down OT, but this is a special occasion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's where they're pricing the new Indos (or wherever they're from), I have to think the Canadian-made authentics will be coming. No way they're leaving that 300-400 Canadian price segment unfilled, is there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
