The Habs were supposed to wear the famous barbershop jersey tonight against the hawks, but Gainey decided the jersey distracted the players and so the habs wear the 1915-1916 "CA" jersey instead.
RDS, in their latest edition of sportscentre, made a top 3 of the league's worst jerseys. In 3rd place was the ducks's 3rd in 96. When they showed the jersey on tv, the ducks were playing the kings who were also wearing their 3rds in the game! Wouldn't that be the ultimate game!? Ahaha
In second place was the canucks "V" jersey
In first place was the bruins' yellow 3rd.
"barber shop" jersey

I'm sorry, but if you don't like the Canucks "V", you hate freedom, and puppies. The "V" stood for Victory.
They go past the point of being terrible to be terribly awesome. J/K
I can think of a lot of jerseys worse than those three. The Blues proposed 3rd from 95, The Seals pastel unis, Islanders "Fish Sticks", Lightning "storm"

Can the Blues jersey really count if they never wore it?
I also don't really think the Lightning storm alternate was bad at all. Well, the probably over did it with the lightning bolts down the sleeves, but the body of the jersey was pretty clever.
Too bad Gainey pulled the plug on the retro jersey. It's honoring their past during their Centennial season. C'mon Bob. Lighten up.

I'm sure things would've been different if the habs had continued to play like they played in the first half of the season.

Seriously. A distraction? How is a hockey sweater a distraction? Don't spit on history because you're tanking in a playoff race.

HA! Cheers to that.

Players thought they looked ridiculous in those jerseys and Price said he couldn't recognize his own players.
But I agree with you, players shouldn't spit on history. I was disappointed

I don't think those jerseys were that bad. I think what made it worst is that the socks are the exact same as the jersey, it's too many stripes. If they had white socks with a blue and a red stripe on them I think it would be way better. Sorry about the crappy artwork (MS PAINT).

Price said what?! He couldn't pick THIS out against a background of white or the dark background of the fans?
Against a team wearing white?
He's an idiot for saying that. No wonder he has so much trouble finding the puck...

In his defense, a pattern like that will make it more difficult to pick up the outline and speed a players is traveling. the white stripes would provide some camouflage against the boards and the ice. The allies did something similar with ships in WW1 and WW2, i think they called it dazzle paint. It was basically big Arse stripes all over a ship to confuse U-boats.
Looking for:
Coyotes original road or third
Baby blue Thrashers 6100
Any Lightning authentics
IIHF Germany and Iceland

That's still an interesting and unusual jersey at the same time. It always catches my attention whenever I see it. For some reason, I always think of a cloak or smock. I have no idea why.
Next up on my wish list:
1.) CCM Vintage or Semi-Pro Dallas Stars white, circa 1999
2.) Rbk Premier Edmonton Oilers blue and Nashville Predators alternate
3.) CCM 550 (or Vintage), Edmonton Oilers blue

I take the train at the Bell Centre and I always go in to see the jerseys in the official store and these jerseys really look awesome up close. They will be worth alot in the future. And the fact they only wore it this one time will make it even more special!

The real question is, of those of you who have bought or will buy the Habs barber pole jersey, how many of you will wear it in public?

If you wear the jersey in Montreal where people know what it means, you'll be fine! If you wear it in Miami though...

Do not doubt for a second that I will wear mine as soon as it has a name and number on it.
Not only will I be rockin' my retro jersey, but I will be safe from being hit by a car at the same time.

Like Jeff said, without question. I was strutting around in my yellow Canucks jersey last weekend and getting weird looks the whole time!

In Montreal you'll get looks if you wear a jersey that is NOT a Canadiens jersey.
