96warrior 11 Report post Posted October 24, 2008 From MLIVE: The Wings' jersey is said to feature a large, old-fashioned letter D on the front. It's not the throwback jerseys from several years ago that had "DETROIT'' across the front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldredbarnman 13 Report post Posted October 24, 2008 Sounds like they'll be wearing sweaters from their inaugural 1926-27 season when they were the Cougars. Wonder if they'll use the red and white"barberpole" socks as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cern 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2008 Awesome, sucks that it's going to be slapped onto these friggin' EDGE jerseys though. Might need to shell out the bucks for an authentic one, those replicas feel like they're made out of tissue paper or something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

redwings1914 18 Report post Posted October 25, 2008 (edited) This year they're showing some Blackhawks game on WGN, and this game is on WGN! I believe the Hawks games are on the "local" version of WGN, and that they won't be aired on WGN America. Sports WGN America airs all WGN Cubs and White Sox baseball games, as well as a select amount of Bulls basketball games. Due to NBA broadcast rights restrictions, most Bulls games contracted to air on WGN-TV are seen in the Chicago area only; WGN America airs movies and other syndicated programming instead. With former superstation TBS having moved its national broadcasts of the Atlanta Braves to its local Atlanta WPCH-TV feed in 2008, it leaves WGN as the only superstation broadcasting local sports to a national audience.[1] WGN gained the over-the-air rights for the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks in 2008; as with most of the Bulls games, these are exclusive to WGN-TV.
