  1. Sportsk is great... We have sent a blank jersey to be personalized out to them and have also ordered a couple of Wings jerseys from them to be personalized and a Tigers jersey as well. They are very knowledegable and keep you updated on the status of your order. I just ordered a Sakic Nordiques from them and it should be here tomorrow, can't wait to see how it turned out! We haven't been disappointed yet! :)


  2. The game was on last night in standard def (Yotes feed), and it was horrible...DirecTV can't get here fast enough.

    You can say that again, that was the worst feed that I think I've seen in awhile! :ranting: The sound and picture were horrible! I checked our upcoming program guide and it looks like we'll be getting the Detroit non-HD feed for Thursday's game (fingers crossed!) We tried to watch the Anaheim game tonight and it was giving us a message saying that there were technical difficulties so I called dish and complained for about 30 minutes and they ended up giving me the $5 off my bill for the next 12 months or gave me an offer to cancel the service entirely. I explained to her that the whole reason we buy center ice is to get fox sports Detroit and I don't feel like I should have to pay full price when I'm not getting the channels that I have been for the past several seasons. We aren't under contract with dish since we've had the service for 7 years now but I don't feel like all the trouble that comes with making the switch... we're just going to hold out and hope that this issue gets resolved sooner rather than later! :(


  3. While moving them to the Palace for a short stint would probably bring in more revenue from ticket sales you don't take hockey away from Hockeytown for any period of time. I quite enjoy being able to drive 5-10 minutes to the Joe and get $15 student rush tickets and would be extremerly pissed if I wasn't able to do that but rather drive 45 minutes to get to a game. Not that my opinion matters to Mr. Illitch.

    That being said, if a new arena is built my two requests is they have an honorary troft in one of the mens bathrooms to pee in. That's part of the experience of going to the game! And don't change the name, keep it Joe Louis Arena please. I can only imagine saying "I'm going to the Joe" and not "I'm going to *insert company name here*."

    No matter what it'll always be "The Joe" to the people of Detroit. I know when Mile High Stadium was torn down here in Denver and replaced with "Ivesco Field at Mile High" a lot of people were upset but in our hearts it'll always be Mile High Stadium.


  4. I'm going to agree with the others and say that sportsk is the way to go as far as the best prices and products. Also, the new Premier jerseys are very cheaply made. If you're looking for a nice jersey spend the extra money and get an Edge, you won't be disappointed. I bought my husband an authentic Lidstrom jersey from sportsk last year and it's awesome.

    I will repeat, don't waste your money on the RBK premier jerseys... they are nothing like the KOHO and CCM replicas from a few years ago. I still wonder why Reebok would put out such a low quality product such as the premier and still have a $150+ price tag for a personalized jersey.


  5. Cough...

    He wouldn't sign our stick last time he was in Denver and I believe that is what Kira is referring to. We put our stick in front of him and he said "I don't sign sticks" but he was more than happy to sign our 8x10.

    Just sayin'... if you got one you're lucky


  6. Hello all,

    Okay first of let me state I am a GUY... lol... Im searching for a gift for my girlfriend and well something that I can enjoy and she can enjoy. I have been looking at red wings sweatpants and shorts. The problem is almost everything I find is labeled as girls. It seems that there is nothing I can find that is labeled as womens. My first question being is there just a lack of womens clothing or could a 22 year old around 5'-9" with a pretty athletic body (wont say weight I know girls hate that haha) fit in the girls or are they only really made for actull kids. I hoping that they are all just labeld girls but Im assuming that they are made for kids. Here is the link for the pants I am looking for...

    Thank you for any information I receive ahead of time.... Her b-day is October 21st so the sooner the better. Thank you.

    crash

    To me "girls" would mean for kids... usually if they're for ladies it would specify ladies, womens, juniors, etc;

    Good luck... I would try NHL.com if I were you, or maybe the goalie's den (google them) and they can ship to you if you find something you like. You might also be able to do a phone order from hockeytown authentics... it's worth a shot :)


  7. No doubt about it. You can't say anything bad about this guy, except perhaps that he played for the wrong team.

    <_<

    He won two Cups with the Avs... I realize they aren't the team they once were but Denver was a great place for Super Joe to be. You guys had Yzerman, we had Sakic :)

    Just my .02

    You will be missed greatly Super Joe!!!


  8. Wait a minute.... Red Wings fan and Avs fan.... <_<

    More like Avalanche fan AND Tomas Holmstrom Fan :)

    Plus, my husband is a wings fan so I watch all the games and cheer for them when they're not playing the Avs.

    Yes, I am a weirdo :P
