chaps80 reacted to AtlantaHotWings in Retro Jersey...Why the gray?
Still better looking than that crappy retro jersey

The ones that aren't in styles made by the official supplier at the time are almost always knockoffs. Occasionally you might see a Mitchell & Ness or something, but if its a jersey style you've never seen before, its often Chinese.
I won't buy "knockoffs" if they're just cheap copies of actual legit jerseys, but I will buy them if I see them in a style or pattern that isn't available thru legitimate sources. I've collected about 30 different Wings jerseys this way.

So you're 1 of those guys that stands out in a crowd wearing the obvious $hitty Chinese knock-off garbage...For shame

Anaheim traded Theodore to keep Vatanen. Let that sink in. Everyone knew Theodore's potential at the time of that trade. Not only that, they traded Vatanen that same damn season.
Florida mismanaged their roster so badly that they gave up Smith AND Marchessault.
Gotta imagine teams will be more aware of this type of s*** when it comes to Seattle.

I dont think you understand how this works. Anyone who played for the Colorado Avalanche from 1996 to ca. 2004 is off limits. No jersey for you.
This is the way.

Foote would be a good choice - was drafted and played for the Nordiques.
He’s another guy I despised since he was an Av, but admired his style of play.

Being one of the older farts here I fondly recall the Nords jersey, and I must admit that the new Nordilanche jersey is damn sweet.
Might have to get one...#22 Lemieux...

Wow, now THAT is gonna piss off anyone old enough to remember the Nords finally becoming a contender after 15 years in Quebec City just to have their team snatched and moved to Denver...where they won the Cup in their first season after the move.
Yeah, the white Nords jersey was sweet.

It wasn't the logo. It was the colors. Unique shade of blue. Yes, the logo was weird.
To revert back to my boring responses of old, every team should just wear what they wore in 1993.

chaps80 reacted to xault in 2020 Free Agency
Man, I am pretty happy we got Griess. Heard nothing but good things about him, he was easily on my top list a few Months back.
Also, I have a BUNCH of VAN fans as friends and they are realllly pissed they didn't resign Stecher. They loved to s*** on our drafting/hughes stuff. Nice to have a small one up on them for once.

If we can get some good picks i'd take the Quick trade. Bernier's contract is over next summer so we'd have him as a starter for a couple years. And hopefully, we will have Askarov, and he's ready to go when Quick goes.

s***, I just read through the last few pages and i don't think i've ever laughed so much at anything on these boards. I know some get offended easily these days, but i'm old school and CRL is one funny dude.

Wow a 180K house in a flyover state. You must be the CEO of Apple or something.
What is that a cloth couch from 1992 lol? I think I had the same one when I was broke and in college. Good luck getting a buck for that at your garage sale.
BTW you need to mow your lawn.

dorion - man we’re gonna be so good eugene!
melnyk - how good?are these guys going to be star players?
dorion - fingers crossed!
melnyk - two 8-10mill guys and tkachuk? Trade one

chaps80 reacted to krsmith17 in 2020 Draft Thread
I finally got around to watching this... If you haven't watched, you haven't missed much...
They did a mock draft and they all had the top three going Lafreniere, Byfield, Stutzle except Trev. He had Byfield dropping to Detroit. Ken Kal had the Wings taking Rossi, Art had the Wings taking Holtz, and Ken Daniels had the Wings taking Drysdale. I was surprised that there was no real conversation about Raymond (who may challenge for 3rd overall) or Perfetti (who has been heavily linked to Detroit)...

chaps80 reacted to ChristopherReevesLegs in 2020 Playoffs LOL
Remember when Chinese people were dying in the streets and they were digging mass graves? Remember when Corona got to NA and literally nothing even remotely resembling that happened?
Going to work, restaurants, concerts, bars, sports = not cool
Going to mass protests = totally cool

chaps80 reacted to ChristopherReevesLegs in Would you bring back Babcock?
You're right. I could have seen him pulling an Alfredsson if Zetterberg and Kronwall were still here. But they aint...
-
chaps80 got a reaction from kliq in Would you bring back Babcock?
They would be better moving on from Andersen imo. He just can't seem to get it done when it matters. I don't see any need for him in Detroit, unless the Leafs are willing to retain at least half his salary. $5.5 million tandem is fine.
I read that the Pens were considering their future in goal and might go with Jarry. Their time as contenders is coming to an end, Murray is an RFA and arbitration eligible.

They still pick in the same spot no?
Also, you're right. The NHL would never do anything unfair come draft time...........
