IBleedUnionBlue Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Got my Filatov game issued Syracuse Crunch jersey today Now hoping the CBJ don't trade him and he fulfills some expectations! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curry1fan Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Early birthday present to me...from me. Well, OK, techincally from IJ. I used a coupon sent to me in the newsletter to get this one. It's a Colby Armstrong replica Maple Leafs home jersey. Colby is one of the former Penguins whose career I've closely followed ever since he was traded back in 2008. He was a big fan favorite in his AHL Penguins days (I could post some REALLY good videos if anyone wants), and I fulfilled a lifelong hockey fan dream of mine back in April when I got to meet him in Wilkes-Barre. The security staff at the arena and one of the guys who worked for the Penguins seemed to be determined to keep fans away from him when he was down doing a radio interview at an intermission, but I managed to get lucky enough and meet him and get a pic (and a hug!). Now if only he'd visit for another game so I can get this beauty signed...or maybe I need to go see Toronto somewhere next year... Ahem. Sorry about my puckbunny moment. Here's the jersey.

slimcutta Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 and see on Drop The Puck, they have the white version of that sweater, but sans 25 year patch and exact same player to boot. Although it would be nice, you don't NEED a 25th patch - Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Their inaugural Bauer jerseys were really nice. That's a pretty rare one too because A: it's the first-ever one and B: it's a one-year style considering Bauer has never made any other jerseys for an NHL team ever.

00xtremeninja Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 update on my stars sweater. I called Rich at Drops The Puck and he gave me exciting news. My sweater was worn during preseason time and then was given back to the equip manager who then sent it back to Steichen's. the owner of Steichen's sports here in MN held onto that and the white one that was on Ebay in his personal collection for the longest time. The two sweaters went on sale on Vintage Authentics but the buyer never paid for them, the guy who sold them on Ebay had them for a while and then put them up for sale. The reason there is no 25 year patch is because the Stars didn't start wearing those until the middle of the season, and that Steichen's put the 25 year patches on all of the game worns they got back in the store regardless of the set number making sense. So I lucked out having it untouched by the 25 year patch. 75 year patch was likely ripped in a scrum or fight during the preseason. I was also told that 91-92 was the only year they wore Ultrafil as they had been wearing Air Knit before and then during the last year when they were here. Needless to say, I am pretty stoked about this! NOW my question to the masses. Due to the history of this sweater being stripped and because of preseason, should I leave it stripped because that is the way it has spent all of it's life and never was used again after the fact or should i get the original name and numbers put on?

St. Patrick Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 lol, you and st. patrick! i went cut throat on that one I'm still bitter. But, oh well. I just picked up three or four off craigslist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Put Enrico back on there. Put the 25th patch on too. You'd probably be the only one in the country outside of possibly Enrico himself with an Enrico Ciccone jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I still need one of those as well, going to turn it into a Vokoun. Its crazy all the years Bauer did hockey stuff and only did one NHL jersey. They were bigger in the minors I guess.

Brilliant! Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Technically, it was a Nike jersey but with Bauer tagging because Nike bought Bauer in 1995. Why they chose to go with the Bauer name rather than Nike is anybody's guess though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming this is about Preds jerseys? I love my inaugural jersey. I love the '98 Nashville patch. Made mine a Ronning!! And that Stars jersey is ridiculous!!!! I want one of those SO BAD!!!!

Great jersey, I bought one at the Hall Of Fame in September 1997 before they even played a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 Technically, it was a Nike jersey but with Bauer tagging because Nike bought Bauer in 1995. Why they chose to go with the Bauer name rather than Nike is anybody's guess though. Nike spent years cultivating the image of being associated with success and with successful organizations; notice that their NHL clients were Detroit, Philadelphia, Chicago, and up-and-coming San Jose and Anaheim teams. When Nashville was added to the stable, it would have meant putting the Nike logo on an expansion team, which they were averse to do (understandably so). Rather than risk it, they put the Bauer logo on the expansion team. If they'd become successful and if Nike/Bauer had stayed on, it would have been replaced by Nike.

Nathan Posted June 10, 2011 Report Share Posted June 10, 2011 A couple of new arrivals. This one will be a 1997 Dale Hunter, once I can find a Caps logo patch that has the diagonal "CAPITALS" and that's set on black twill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
