Stu in Israel 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 There are rumors that every team will do that next year. I read Gordie Howe never went to a curved blade because he hated change and technology. No, just kidding. I read he kept it straight because he hates gays. No, just kidding again. I read he kept it straight because he could shoot with both hands equally. When Gordie Howe first came to the Red Wings one of the hockey magazines noticed that he was an ambidextrous shooter, particularly by observing his warm-up "figure 8s," and predicted that he would lead the league in scoring. Howe finished his career by being in the top five scorers for an incredible 20 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eva unit zero 271 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 (edited) The 'C' and 'A' have historically been on the right side of the jersey, for the majority of team history. EDIT: formatting Edited October 22, 2007 by eva unit zero Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
auxlepli 17 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 Still, IMO, it doesn't look as good as if the C and A were on the left side. It's not as aesthetically pleasing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wings_Fan_In_Exile 3 Report post Posted October 22, 2007 I hated seeing the A's and C on the right side too... but those pics make me feel warm and fuzzy inside, so no complaints from me. Just will take a little getting used to. I 2nd the notion that at least the Wings aren't putting numbers on the front. Could you imagine that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
