Updates and Rumours from around the League

Re: Trade Updates and Rumours from around the League

Habs used the Leaf before the Leafs.
 
Re: Trade Updates and Rumours from around the League

Hmm good point.

A fire at the Westmount Arena forces the team to borrow the jerseys belonging to the Hochelaga team from the City League, for a game against Ottawa on Jan. 5, 1918. The jerseys are red with a very large white stripe across the chest. How is that for a collector's item? In case you’re wondering, the Canadiens, borrowed jerseys and all, beat Ottawa 6-5 that night.

Here's one I'd like to have owned both for the player and the team.

It's not a permanent thing. I don't mind the nostalgia once in a while.

Best winter classic jerseys so far?

I still don't get it. If the outdoor game is all about bringing back the classics, and especially this year they will have TWO outdoor games, how could we not see a Leafs - Habs game on new year day?

So the Calgary Tigers played the Montreal Canadiens in the 1924 Stanley Cup Final...

And these are the jerseys the Habs wore in '24 I believe...

The Canadiens decide to proudly display their "World Championship", following their second Stanley Cup triumph, replacing the "CH" by a globe in the middle of their jersey. The official logo with the white "C" could still be found on each sleeve.

... it's a globe? God, I get going back to hockey's roots but the Habs have one of the best jerseys in the league - all this barber pole/globe/green Leaf stuff is kinda stupid IMO.
 
Re: Trade Updates and Rumours from around the League

That 2nd tigers jersey looks like it could be pretty bad ass. I'd say out of the winter classic jerseys the hawks are my favorite, and the pens second.

Sweet pic but I like the one with it above his head.

These teams need no marketing gimmicks to get people to watch them.
